blue flamingo suit yaay

[Xeno Metora]

can we stop with the worthless rewards? thanks.

Game that has been handing out lots of cosmetic rewards since 2016, handed out a cosmetic reward. Shock.

That's not to say a lot of rewards could be better (why do we have 5 identical fiber wires...), but it seems purely cosmetic crap is the norm.

At least they aren't making you pay 9.99 to get the suit. There aren't this many games left that keep providing free content without bashing you over the head with mobile-like transactions and ads. Play Call of Duty sometime and tell me how Hitman 2 is screwing up.

I don't know about you but IMO the blue flamingo suit is one of the best cosmetic rewards in the entire game. I can go to the Isle of Sigail dressed as a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flamingo, I'd take that over a lot of other items any day.

I'd also like to state that expecting loads and loads of non-cosmetic rewards is a tad unreasonable, especially when we've gotten items like Shaman/Magnesium Powder recently that are actually completely unique items with their own uses. (and when we're gonna get the flash robot with the new ET, too, which appears to be a Napoleon Blownaparte/Iconator equivalent that flashes enemies. Also, please don't try to claim something like "shaman/magnesium powder are useless tho" when they've been used to break new ground in speedrun records already)

Making an all-new item will generally take some consideration, especially a truly unique one. I wouldn't expect them to be pumped out as a reward for every single piece of new content, especially if we're also expecting IO will keep what they did in S1 to a minimum and won't make loads of items that make other items essentially worthless.

As a sidenote as well, most seriously gameplay-effecting items should be kept outside of Elusive Targets, Escalations or Challenge Packs IMO and instead in mission Mastery levels. If, let's say as one example, we get Adrenaline syringes from BM added to the game that 47 can take to temporarily increase movespeed, I think I'd much prefer that as a reward in the upcoming Bank level as opposed to an Escalation or something.

There's already a pink one, I think was his point. But that's par for the course, a sizeable chunk of the rewards are just painted versions. Other games do it too, especially with guns.

If you hate the game so much why don't you just stop playing and move on?
I've literally never seen you do anything here except complain about how everything the game does is wrong.

You think contracts mode is worthless, you think ghost mode is a waste of time, you've complained about how you can't buy content that isn't out yet (expansion 2), you've complained about ET's existing, you complained about an area of a mission going unused in the main mission (because you refuse to acknowledge contracts), pretty sure you've also complained about Sniper Mode and I wouldn't be surprised to find out you were the guy who complained about escalations being 'unrealistic' (and therefore not worth playing) way back too (can't remember who it was but it sounds right up your ally).

You seem to hate the game more and more with each update so why not just move on and play something else?

Edit: How could I forget the time you tried to say only 3 people were working on the game in order to complain about how slow content is released.

There's already a pink one but it's a disguise for one mission, the blue flamingo is a starting outfit you can take anywhere.

Of course, it's a retexture that takes less effort on the part of the devs to make than a new model, but from a player perspective you can't wear the flamingo outfit to anything other than Miami until you get this.
