Also a similar bug accoured to me in Dm that a particular player became totally invisible, his gun was onlt visible near his legs and was running around and killing me. Also other frienda were there too but hapoened only to me. Even after respawn he was still invisible.
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
I agree it looks like a vandal, however if you watch the entire round, you will see killjoy kill our protagonist with a spectre and at the end of the round, when killjoy dies he drops a BlastX spectre. Almost 99% certain that this is related to the BlastX skin.
oh interesting. good callout yeah i only saw through the clip, and i just saw the whole round and you're right. someone else in the thread also shared an instance of this where we could see a spectre with the same issue, not just the silhouette through the wall but also the "tearing and falling" of the paper too. im collecting all of these examples for the team so the more we have the better it will be for us to understand.
Just to note that the bug isn't just limited to buying or rebuying the gun, here's a twitter clip of it happening to Rara in the middle of the round:
thanks for this report. the more instances and examples we have of this the better. That there shows up as a clear example of the issue we see with BlastX where the wrapping paper stretches.
This is a bug with the Christmas skins when you upgrade them and when you pull out the gun, they show the packaging of the gun through walls. Don’t recommend using that skin until it gets patched.
A couple of notes to address here:
For BlastX, there is a known issue where you can see an ally's weapon during buy phase if they buy, sell, and rebuy the weapon. As far as we have seen this is only something that occurs from buying/rebuying the weapon and nothing else and so it should never be visible during a round. Additionally with that bug you only see the wrapping paper, not the gun.
In this screenshot, the weapon in question looks like a vandal, which would eliminate this from being a BlastX issue anyway.
Either way this shouldnt happen ever and we'll be looking into it
I know I'm late but I'll trying anyways: are you planning on bringing the Ronin Collection back? I loved that skin line and been patiently waiting for a re-release since beta.
unfortunately no. that was a really old collection and something we needed for beta to make sure we had enough content, though looking back we're not proud of it and it doesnt represent our best work. if we were to release that we would want to restart that and take a different approach
Have you considered making a chancla as a melee?
only if it were throwable
What about those short katanas? I think it's called a kodachi? It might work out.
definitely could

dont forget about [Redacted]
How come you changed the finisher animation from Prime 1.0 to 2.0? I personally like the wolf better than the bull. I recognize you want to create a bigger difference between 1.0 and 2.0, but I'm curious. Also, are there plans to eventually release a 3.0 to cover the remaining weapons for a "full Prime" set?
one thing to consider for more of these is gun choice. with 1.0 and 2.0 we've covered a phantom and a vandal already, and ideally we wouldnt want a repeat of those since players would ideally want to have a full set. like we saw with glitchpop 1.0, the theme was cool but the guns were not and so we wouldnt want players to go through that again
Interesting, thanks for the response. Also, I appreciated that we get a different animal on Prime 2.0. Maybe, if you have plans for an Oni 2.0 in the future, we can get a different demon
definitely! we had a lot of crazy ideas for Oni and we delivered on something we felt like would be a broad appeal for that theme, but I think we can go in a few different directions if we were to revisit it
I don't know know if you will answer this but is there ANY chance of more ion phantom variants coming out. And also could be get a better refund system :)
unfortunately no. we know it was a mistake to not do variants in that line and if we did a 1.1 or 2.0 release of that set we'd definitely want to improve them. what sort of changes would you want to see in ion variants? we heard some players asking for as little as just changes to the blue effects. would you want more than that or is even just a color change enough?
What skin are you enjoying right now?
plz say wasteland
I hope the feedback for this doesn't scare you off from unique equip animations. I think they add character to the knives that in this game can sometimes seem unfortunately same-y across models that are otherwise very different. This knife seems to have mostly unique animations, and animations I like to boot.
Have you considered making the different animations chance? Something like how there are multiple animations in CS, just depending on RNG. The Prime 2.0 melee could occasionally alternate between the different pullout/inspect animations after being upgraded, so that both groups are pleased. It even adds a feeling of satisfaction that you 'got the lucky animation'.
we did an RNG thing with glichtpop and the vfx colors/logos and players really loved that, so we've recently come up with a system to allow us to do that for animations too :) naturally though because its a recent thing, we wont have a skin out for a while that will utilize it. but its on our list!
Is there any reason that you folks don’t give color chroma upgrades for the knives as well? I can’t think of anything besides maximizing revenue on other knife sales which would be pretty scummy.
Can we expect a ultimate skin bundle this year? Elderflame 2.0 perhaps?
we're not working on an elderflame 2.0 but we are working out what can be the next UE to bring. we set the bar pretty high with elderflame so we want to make sure we deliver on what the next ultimate is
Hey Sean and Preeti, firstly I wanna thank you for addressing this! I’m excited about the future “skin level toggle system” and the 2nd karambit.
For the next Karambit I think a really cool design would be an Ice themed karambit, could have some cool particle effects when you equip it.
Will the next melee or future melees have color variants? It seems like you guys stopped doing it after the candy cane :/
hey there!
the moment you say ice themed, i think of a way to insert another "breaking" easter egg into a melee like with what we did for the winterwunderland melee :D
Melee variants are a thing we never originally planned to do so what you're seeing in terms of current releases are things that were already done by the time we decided to add them. we will be adding variants to some melee weapons in the future when it makes sense or doesnt impact our schedules too drastically. we want to deliver awesome content to you but the more we make the longer it takes
As of last bundles it looks like you're re-exploring on different guns for sets that were greatly accepted. Is this the idea of the upcoming bundles for Ep 2 or are we getting new themes?
we'll still be getting new themes of course, theres tons of ideas we're super excited to roll out soon! at the same time we want to offer more for players who are into a thing that already exists so there will be some select bundles that will get more
the karambit is beautiful!
Please, give to us a katana for oni 2.0 melee please.
we have to be careful with our melee weapon sizes. on one hand, our melee system is not really the greatest atm and itd be pretty feelsbad to have a large weapon that swings across your screen, only to miss because your crosshair isnt on the player. additionally from a 3rd person perspective we dont want you to have a weapon that gives you away when others typically would not. would suck to have a big sword sticking around a corner you know
Any ideas about stickers similar to CS?
Gun buddies are nice, but they’re a much smaller change than csgo stickers, and I love csgo’s limitless combo potentiometer in their skins.
Team/player stickers and gunbuddies would be nice as well, to be support our favorite teams/players
we've talked about it. The trouble that comes along with that is how do we ensure a sticker could be usable per skin or variant. I think the biggest example we've pointed to is glichpop. that thing is already COVERED in stickers, where else would we put another. thats not to say we wouldnt do it, we just dont have a good solution for it yet
