Skins from safe drops
I wish Overkill would ease up the the chance to get a red skin or even a legend one. One reason is to differ the chance of getting a red skin or a legend depending on what difficulty you play in and how many real players there are who clears the heist. I and a friend cleared the reservoir dogs one One Down, each got a armor safe and ended up with a purple skin, don’t know if you can get any lower drop. Second reason is that we’re soon to enter the last year that Overkill will support and release new content for the game and why not celebrate loyal heisters? I’ve been playing this game for over 2500 hours without ever getting any red skins nor a legend one. Seems a bit cheap to keep the current system.

That's how lootboxes work, low chance of getting a valuable item. And you can't change those odds depending on other factors. It's got to be the same for everyon, just like the lottery.

If you make legendaries more common they wouldn't be worth much.

Epics are pretty cheap already.

this is not up to overkill, is up to steam anything than works with the green market feature needs to be controlled by steam, so, not a chance buddy.

well attleast be thankful the new cases dont use drills anymore. at a low cost of a safe being around 0.05$-0.15$ i guess you cant be mad if you get a 0.03$ blue

And exactly why most skins are worthless too, the days of getting a $200 legendary are gone.

Most of the time I like blue skins anyway and find most reds or yellows ugly as hell.
Guess some people just want to show off rarity and not skins they like.

But if it’s the last year a game is supported of the developers the should change the loot drops is my convenience.

It's likely they will either:
- keep releasing community safes to keep the loot safes fresher
Or
- disable drops altogether so the last safes don't drop forever

Overkill insisted many times old safes will stay retired, so thats not an option

But if there is a chance of getting a red or even a legend skin I would like to get it in a loot drop. Get really pissed that I haven’t got a least 1 (one) of those during all my hours spent in the game. If it would be a different loot drop depending on the difficulty and the amount of human players clearing the heist I would be fine with that. It should differ is my opinion.

Lol, don't be too entitled buddy. Making the drop chance depend on game factors wouldn't be fair as people would cheat it easily. You can't allow that.

I opened over 800 safes and never got a legend. Drop rate is about 0.2% for those. I did get a dozen epics tho.

I was gonna mention the odd position PAYDAY's economy is in but... I guess this thread has already gone down the sh*tter

Let's raise the drop chances and have the value of said skins drop dramatically. Just no because they respect and value their "loyal heisters".

I'd want that, but that's quite clearly not going to happen, and rightly so.

If there PD2 not getting official support and no more new community safe, perhaps many workshop skin creators will share their skins that can be used by using some mods.

In comparison to giving away millions of copies for free and selling the UE for a lot less than many of us have paid for the same stuff I think it would be a nice gesture from the devs that a least make the red skins and legends drop a bit more often but that’s only my opinion.
