we will :) or maybe we already did???

it does but we actually found a bug for it - in the original release it was client side where every player in the game would see it differently, so itd be broken for some and not for others, which was how it was found so quickly. we fixed that and now its more unified so everyone sees the same thing.

also im well. the team is freaking out about this easter egg because we kept it a secret and everyone's really happy about it :) how are you?

honestly.. i had hoped it would take a while. same as with the candycane, but naturally it was found immediately. I will do better next time

that was quick

we revealed it at the beginning of this month!

Preeti and I had this bit of hope that we'd get through the whole thing without the sovereign connection being brought up and then itd be a "OMG WTF" moment when we changed to the Variant! haha. but either way it was also so exciting (evident by preeti's "YAAAAHH!") that you got it immediately! this was awesome to walk through with you!

Holy crap this is incredible!! I love how you went even far enough to paint the scratches and everything that are on the original gun! Amazing job overall!!
Little known fact about the silencers - because we use the same one on the ghost, spectre, and phantom, there are technically scale differences between to help them feel a bit bulkier, so any of the 3d files from the game would have the silencer be at default scale. for the spectre its 10% bigger and for the phantom its 25%

we actually separate out some features like that. things like the guns being handled by the characters based on their materials is actually something that goes into all guns where appropriate, even on level 1. for evolving features, things like muzzleflashes and animations, effects, etc there is a point where things are a bit too niche and we kind of have to intentionally be restricted. we dont want to add features for the sake of just having them there, only when it really feels appropriate (and when a player finds that its actually worth investing in an upgrade)

i love that folks are upset about that and no one has touched the fact that the reddot sight is technically a digital projection :D

for sure! we're trying to get something for everyone. even someone who wants something a bit more simplistic might not like this because maybe they have no interest in historical era type of content and want something just clean and simple. we want to make sure we dont alienate anyone's interest no matter how niche - granted though things like this that generally have a very specific appeal will be fewer and further between than things that appeal to a broader audience.

wasteland is my favorite set too and im upset that i missed out on when it was in the store!

some people said we shouldve done this on every reload instead of just the empty mag, but its just us upholding our commitment to low ping

ill be here all week

this and wasteland - not a huge appeal but for those who love it, they really love it :)

Honestly we didnt think of this and I love the idea. I saw someone comment on twitter or youtube that infantry could be a line that progresses throughout different periods of warfare instead of just doing more within ww1 or 2. it gives us a lot of options :)

i wanted to make a joke about that and my name saying "im not a vandal"

thanks!

We love you too, and 10/10 for use of spongebob reference

niiiice. lets see some animations on it! :)

as a heads up, we've fixed this issue and it will be rolled out in the next patch!

that sounds insanely odd. do you have a video of this? the gun at the feet actually indicates to me an issue where the character model failed to load and is probably not the same as this instance but would be good to see anyway if you have it
