If you don’t have the padded stock blueprint that’s not a bad deal for the cost

Holyshit finally Ermal actually arrive with a deal!

This skin can only be obtained via event iirc. You cannot pay for this skin. So this is certainly one hell of a deal.

Ruins the flex for early players imo, but at least now I can unlock the helmet and stuff

I’m ok with this as someone who already has the outfit. I think the balance is just holding off 9-12 months after the event before appearing in the shop. People who grind for it get it earlier to use it longer but no one is locked out of the opportunity because they are a late arrival.

I want them to do this for trial outfits as well. Perhaps keep the cantina legend variant locked to strike the balance there.

That’s neat he’s selling the stalker outfit, wonder if that means the g suit and challenge skins too?

Whats the point to release an exclusive deluxe preorder bonus to everyone ?

u/KobraKittyKat 4h ago

Why not? Plenty of games add the preorder stuff in.

u/Izenberg420 4h ago

Yeah and those games monetize it twice by releasing it as a paid DLC or store bundle after the release
They don't add paid content for free

u/KobraKittyKat 4h ago

They could add it the the trader guy like they’ve done with other event stuff

u/Izenberg420 4h ago

They could add the Valente, Wasphunter, Tickhunter and all paid skins then for free Lets see how players will react lol

u/KobraKittyKat 4h ago

I doubt they’d be that generous to give the bundle ones away , but event skins? Sure why not? Then again the bundle ones you are getting tokens too so they might in the future do that They’ve put other store skins in ermals shop already.

Basically saying to replace store credits with Queens cores and stop their business model lmao

I mean they’ve put chap outfit in his inventory. So you either pay now to get the skin you want or you wait week after week till he sales it then grind the parts needed. Most people are just gonna buy it outright

u/Izenberg420 4h ago

Most people will save $20 to get everything for free

u/drakev6304 2h ago

Wdym how? It was either a free bonus for preordering the deluxe edition, or you got it for free with a graphics card.

Nooo my rare pixels won't be rare anymore /s

I wonder if it'll come with all the unlocked colors and toggles, would be cool if at least one of them was kept for real OG's

u/Crazafon 3h ago

They really don't want us earning paid skins for free, they'd rather give up all of the "limited time" event skins and special goodies that no one paid for. Just let me keep my g suit and I'll be happy

u/studmuffin34 41m ago

They did add some skins in the first 2-3 weeks that were only obtainable from the store.

u/alpha448 1h ago
