Killer power Cosmetics

interested to know since the rift came out. why they didn't think about giving killing powers actual cosmetics

like for example: Trapper having different forms of his traps or Huntress having not only a different appearance of her weapon but also her throwing axes.

Comments

  • I would like to see different kinds of chainsaws and tonic bottles too.

  • They definetely thought about that.

    Behaviour prefers qauntity over quality,sadly

  • Probably because that'd mean redesigning the customisation page

    Other point might be because there are some abilities that simply arent tools but only floaty special effects, or nothing all.

    • The Shape, GF, Legion, Spirit have no replaceable special effects, not even from their own pov.
    • Plague needs to stay color coded to identify her current state, cant give her rainbow puke.
    • Doctor's electricity might be replaceable
    • Nurse only has those particles in her left hand and the white movement blur of her blinks.
    • Hag... Got her triangle on the floor. Much visible , such wow. Demogog's portals seem similiar, but lose their flair if replaced.
    • Clowns shouldnt want to see their bottles that often (only can see them clearly when reloading, which sucks)
    • Wraith, Trapper, Billy, Pig, Bubba, are the only killers who could have " cool" replacement tools that arent just glowing special effects like doc or nurse.

    I was slightly disappointed that Plague's Blight cosmetic didn't make her Corrupt Purge orange, I think if they were going to give her a color change it would only be for Corrupt, that way people would know that something that isn't nasty green is probably bad for them.

    Do you know how bad this makes me want Rainbow puke for Plague? I didn't even think of this until you mentioned it. I mean...they probably could have made her corrupt purge the same black, but the normal puke rainbow colored. There's also a huge tell on her weapon, it glows red when she has corrupt purge. As for Clown, they could always make the smoke from the bottles different colors. Hag could have her body double replaced by something else. It's pretty obvious when she teleports anyways so it's not like it has to be her model.

  • I think this is a great idea!

  • Welp, now my thread is getting closed.

    For the Plague, can change the fountains. For Michael, GF, you can make a visual, more realistic effect of the presence of a mask, as here:

    Only slightly improve the view from the mask.

    Why did I feel like that was an opening to a ps1 game

  • Because some would be p2w/p2l

    How would skins be p2w

  • I think that it would be really cool to have someone like clown grow presents at survivors with his Santa skin, but something like trapper could give you free tar bottles. So Trapper already has cosmetics there just really boring and cost bp, and then there’s issues with things like legion has no separate power it’s their knife. Or hag who’s cosmetics on herself technically change the powers look. But killers like huntress clown billy bubba would work greatly

  • Killer power cosmetics, as long as they were reasonably priced, would be super cool.
