Is it time to revisit skin selection boxes?

Yet another batch of skin boxes being released with desirable skins for classes that aren’t released in the West yet, that will not be usable on future classes.

Spring Dream
Summoner

Scouter

Reaper

Wingsuit
Summoner

Scouter

Will you ever change your stance on selection boxes being updated to be usable by sub-classes released after the skins become unavailable?
Will the skins see a re-release in 1-2 years?
Will these skins ever be available to classes we didn’t/don’t currently have access to?

I legitimately don’t understand why you can hold a skin box, open it after a class releases and it work perfectly fine

But the weapon skins are fucked.

Why?

I guess because the skins you’re mentioning are for base class, while weapon skins are sub-class exclusive.

Hard agree, many posts have brought this up and I fail to understand why these can’t just be updated. I’ve been holding onto an Omen weapon chest since Glaivier released hoping that the new classes would have the weapon skins added in, and I’m still waiting. It’s not like these skins don’t exist at all… it doesn’t make any sense.

Wait what, we can’t hold the weapon boxes ?

I WON’T FUCKING BE ABLE TO GET MY SUNFLOWER ON MY REAPER ? IS THAT A JOKE ?

This really needs to be addressed. If it has to be a re-run after they are all out, ok, I guess. You want to do the unethical FOMO manipulation of time limited skins and don’t want to lose money from people only being able to buy from the market. If they just had these in the shop permanently this wouldn’t be a problem.

The current practice is pretty absurd, given that if these boxes could be opened at later date for a newly released class, they would sell even more than they do currently. People would be spending and stockpiling like crazy.

@Roxx Please pass this on. It’s especially strange to see these very Scouter-desired skins show up with a likely end-of-sale date of the Scouter release.

Yes.
Please pay attention to this issue and look into changing this -
so important cosmetics are not lost to the void for no good reason.

If the issue is “work to change after” then just stop doing the work to remove classes from boxes.
Keep the classes on boxes even if they not added yet.
Then the result is less work/changes than what is being done now.

are you new here ?
