Twitch Elite Skin

Hi there,

I was wondering if Ubi would ever consider fixing Twitch drone's skin...

What issue have you found?

If I were to guess, he's probably referring to how the drone is much harder to spot on certain backdrops compared to the default drone, which could be considered pay-to-win. A simple fix would be to give players the option to disable skins client-side.

Considering the skin is banned from Pro League by ESL, I thought it was quite obvious. It is indeed what I was talking about.

Its actually sad that Ubisoft still hasn't changed the skin on the drone when its been discussed many times that it is hard to see on certain maps.

There are far too many advantageous skins in the game to warrant reworking them all. Instead, there should just be a checkbox in the graphics settings to allow rendering cosmetics client-side. MVP screens would bypass this setting, just to keep the flex factor.
This would have the added benefit of allowing players like me who abhor artstyle-breaking cosmetics like the Mozzie pizza outfit to avoid them, without affecting the people who enjoy them.

Twitch Elite Skin there is a sand dust colour skin for the Shock Drone and and its perfect camo on maps like Fortress, Outback and Border.
