I still haven't spent all the RTC I purchased over 2 years ago with my Founder's pack. Kind of hard to send more $$ BHVR's way via purchasing more RTC if we have nothing to spend our existing RTC on. I tell ya one thing if they keep making the new weapons and shields "mastercrafted" with the +100LP price tag over default weapon costs I wont be buying anything. We just want skins for DEFAULT SHIELDS AND WEAPONS. I've NEVER seen anyone running the new shields that were released. That's because they cost more than the default shield. They're upgrades instead of just skins. What a waste. We can BARELY afford a Shield, Artificer armour and a chainsword. How the heck do you think we can afford to equip the new shields when they cost more LP than the standard shield?
I don't think I'll ever be able to run out of rtc, I don't even play more then a couple times a month now, but there's just nothing to spend my 150k rtc on. Do like planetside 2 did, make the players do all the work, BE sends it to get certified and puts it in game. Anything would be better, right now it's as if they don't want money, their system for sustained income is a failure. We just want to look good.
We have zero customization options for Jump Packs because +Fuel and +Fuel regen Wargear overwrites the default/iconic look of the Jump Pack. First we'd have to allow the player to choose Jump Pack Appearance as a skin and get rid of the Wargear overwriting appearance. Once that's done we could add iconography to our jump packs and buy skins for the Jump Packs off of the store. Money for skins like this is burning a hole in my pocket, do you want it or not?
People still think this is a, high budget, triple-A supported game with a huge dev team that has multiple people in each role.
Which is exactly why I stated in the main post that we can do this stuff using EXISTING ASSETS and adding a few roman numerals(Legion designations). Copy and paste an imperial fist icon that already exists and add the icon to knee pads and jump packs. Alternate between the right and left knee pads adding either/or (icon and roman numerals) making several different options for each existing leg. Do the same for all Chapters = profit.
I wasn't referring to your post. I see posts throughout many threads that cry out, "Do this for me, or you're bad developers". I agree, with your post, especially for LSM and even CSM. However, Orks and Eldar are also on their list to implement more visual customization. I know these assets exist, but there may be reasons to why they haven't taken this into account. Maybe they're waiting for a SM campaign where each SM chapter gets items similar to your suggestion?
ez knife skin for 2 - 4k rtc ez helmet plume to add onto helmets for a more 'ultramarine' look, see this one: https://www.gamereplays.org/community/uploads/post-152648-1313461184.jpg ez face mask & 'kilt' for ultramarines. the red linen cord would be nice too.
laurel helmet, ez cash. And the best part is, almost all of these already exist or would be incredibly easy to make. Literally just shrinking parts of existing models, expanding them or moving assets from one thing for another, the laurels above could easily be the ones placed on the knee and then turned to fit on either side of the head, re-coloured to fit the ultras artstyle (green) and bingo, new helm.
