Aww definitely tell them that it’s appreciated by all of my friends! He’s doing a great job!! 👍🏻
Awww thank you! He was really happy to hear that and can't wait for you all to see his next skins!

Show him this then so he stops doing that. Talented people should have a lot of self respect as what they can do is unique in their own way that nobody else can do.
This is so sweet! <3 I sent it to him and it made him smile.
Could you make it move a little faster?! Or a wave move faster than other, that could make ppl notice it more.
Thanks for the idea. I'll pass that along to him ;)
It's just that the weapon skin art is far different than that of the game. Nowhere else in the game can we see this type of lightning that makes things shine and the art looks different too. Why is there such a difference ? I think if you keep to the way that the skins that we earn from agent contracts are made, you'll have far more consistent skins that more people will like. I adore the look of those skins, but the ones in the shop are inferior to them.
we'll definitely have a range of skins for sure - some will be more elaborate and have materials that vary because of the fantasy that the skinline is trying to sell, and some will be a bit more muted. it comes down to preference and what we've seen for a while now is that what one person thinks is trash, another person loves - so we have to work within the boundaries of the style we have while still appealing to multiple groups. definitely a challenge and one that the team is up to. ultimately we want to make sure above all else that our quality bar is cohesive and we'll strive to make sure we maintain that as we continue to add new content.
Read moreAwesome! Can you take a look at my other comment here ? I'd just love to hear an actual developer opinion on that. Please :(
Edit: I'll paste it here.
I like the Prism line purely because of the nuanced blue and purple mix as that's one of my favorites in general for anything, but I have to say that right now, apart from the agent weapon skins which look fantastic, there's not a single skin I'd buy from the shop.
The reason for that is because skins look plastic-y to me. Like toys, not weapons. I don't know if it's the lightning that contributes to that so much, but the art and texture of all skins looks awful. Default weapon looks are fine-ish, although some, like the Vandal do suffer from the same although to a much lesser degree.
Please consider doing some tweaks to have a more cleaned up look and not so much shining angles on the weapons. The agent skins are fine because they look like a skin out of CS. No lightning on every corner, no ...
yep we're definitely taking a look at buddies. We're doing our best to limit clipping as much as possible by making rules that buddies have to abide by - overall dimensions, where they're positioned, etc.
in regard to the guns feeling plastic-like, we're actively working on making this better. we've actually taken a sweep at all of the base guns to get their materials and textures reading a bit better and its actually uncovered a lot of issues with the way we were working and the rules we were following before, so going forward we'll be able to have a bit more dialed in materials that feel more representative of what they should actually be while still fitting within the stylized world
Will there eventually be more color options for player outlines? I feel yellow is much easier to see than red and I'm not colorblind, but also feel other options might benefit people more.
I'm not sure yet, I imagine more color options is not off the table.
I LOVE ICE THEMED THINGS and I noticed immediately absolutely had to pick it up for my phantom! Loving the skins so far btw! The art direction of this game is fantastic imo! Animated skins are awesome, keep up the great work!
Thank you! :') <--- happy tears
I'll tell the artist who worked on Avalanche. He's been beating himself up thinking he never quite got it right (he's really talented, so nothing he does is is every perfect enough for him!).
If I were to give a full rundown, then:
Classic - Ferret, because it's small and doesn't make much impact at all. Sometimes even cute!
Shorty - Bull, to imitate the two nostrils exhaling sharply that we all know of. If you don't like being in front of a bull to know what that exhale feels like, then you also don't want the same thing with a shorty!
Stinger - Bees. Lots of beeeeees. Mostly because the pun with the name.
Phantom - Fox. Swift and silent, but still pretty deadly.
Vandal - Wolf. Loud, powerful, isn't afraid to get in your face to take a bite out of it.
Ares - Cheetah. This one can be the big purring feline one. Also, quite deadly because of its speed (of rounds shot).
Odin - Elephant. Loud and chonky. And just like an elephant, you don't want to see one running in your direction.
Operator - Eagle. Both have greatly enhanced sight, and both are very fast and very lethal. And just like an eagle's cry, everyo...
lol I love this! Ok, how about the Frenzy? Or the Melee????
Meteorite themed accent metal and a space like effect similar to avalanche where it moves slightly.
I'm so glad you noticed that Avalanche moves! Not a lot of people notice! :(
Angel devil for sure, would be dope
Lots of you seem to like the angel/devil idea. What do you like about it?
Fantastical for sure, for more sci-fi stuff I’d want an Astro line which could either look like the Astronautilus theme with space rock colors or Space Invader Heimer with more green
Nice nice. Thanks for sharing :)
Ooh, maybe an elephant then. They are really loud and bulky just like the Odin!
Oh man an elephant! I love elephants! :D
Not the other dude but what would be important is the weapons feeling very fluid. Think the new legendary Cosmic lux skin, it’s like flowing water.
Then once it feels super smooth, add a ton of pew pew and star dust.
That's cool! Would it feel more scifi-y or more fantastical for you?
Question- can you make gun buddies not clip into weapons when they move ? Idk by either extending the thing they're attached to so they don't hit the weapon at all or by adding actual physics to the weapons and gun buddies i.e when the gun buddy touches the weapon, it hits it and stops there, not clip through it. Animation for that needs some work, but I doubt it'll be too much of a problem. It's 2020 after all.
That is, if you intend to make gun buddies a buyable thing in the future along with skins, you shouldn't make visual compromises like that when you want us to buy because of the visuals in the first place.
This is something we're in the process of fixing! Lots of buddy clipping issues right now. :/
Tell them u/oniram177 :D
The shorty could be bull themed. You know how they sharply exhale through their two nostrils? That's kinda similar to the shorty 😛
As for the Odin... Probably a big feline, like a cheetah or clouded leopard. When the Odin shoots, it reminds me of a cat's purr.
Edit: Operator would be an eagle because their eyesight is comparable to the double scope we have on the gun.
^ this guy has ideas.
I was thinking the Odin is like a rhino. Or some really loud animal. I swear it makes my ears ring when I'm spectating someone who's unloading it.
Animal themed skins are amazing, and have no limits. You can have a wolf Vandal, a fox Phantom, a ferret Classic, etc. Basically matching characteristics of each weapon with an animal stereotype.
lol this is fun. What would the Odin be? Or the Shorty?
Dude Cosmic is one of my favorite skinlines in LoL and I feel that Cosmic guns would be so f**king sick
Oh nice! What would you want to see in a skin like this?
I know it's not your domain, nothing about hitreg and stuff.
But may you pass the word about "Headache" problem on valorant? "seem" to be a problem arround weapon sway/bob or even spray that shake the screen.
Apex Legend had a similar problem with headache, that was due to movement shake.
Would gladly appreciate :(

I can talk with some folks about it, yeah. As I understand it it's a competitive advantage question- do we allow a setting that helps alleviate the 'headache' problem if that setting is a must for competitive play? I'm sure there's more to it than that, but that's my simple understanding of the problem in adding that setting for now
Edit: Don't worry about shooting stuff my way that's not out of my domain- my domain is rather broad (most of the underlying game tech is done by my team, stuff like movement, HUD, UI, Hitreg, Wall Pen, etc etc). If it's something I don't have knowledge about I can direct you to the right folks to talk to
Can you go work for Respawn part time and fix Apex hit reg please? Love the dedication you guys are showing to your game, thank you for all your hard work.
If only all the FPS games I loved had perfect hitreg!
Thank you, I very much appreciate the kind words :)
