Switching between basic merc skin and your loadout's skin

(YangXiaoLong) #1

Hello everybody, this is my first post in DB’s forum even if i play this game since the closed.
Excuse me by advance for my bad English…

I was just wondering recently, after looking at gold skins, why don’t we have the possibility to switch between the basic loadout skin and your loadout skin?
Like switching between Bronze/Default, Silver/Default, Gold/Default

For example, Sparks

Basic skin

Gold skin

In my opinion, it’s a shame that we have some nice default skins, but we never use it because we don’t have perks on it.
I prefer those basic skins rather than gold skins, especially the gold i call “Bamboo gold” with wood, it’s pretty terrible. There are more colors on basics…

The other possibility is to make possible to craft those skins like bronze cards (C/C loadouts bronze skin to default skin) with the same requirements for fragments/credits.

Do you agree, or if no, why?

Thank you for reading me,
Yang

100% agree and I think skins need to be removed by default in ranked.

Seperate skins from loadout, period. You could even have merc skins and weapons skins separated and i think it will be still better than actual system, even though you’ll end up having more rng.

This topic made a flop, here and on reddit…

Since I generally dislike the woodoptic on the weapons I definetly agree with you. Skins in general just make people think that they are better than others just because they have a gold card. There is a reason why the devs always mention that evrything from bronze upwards is just cosmetic. Like the idea with the skincrafting.

My thoughts exactly!
Every merc almost looks the same and visual clarity is violated. I’d buy all default skins with 3 augments, if I could! Hopefully they’re reworking the card system.
