    Rest goes to the CDT budget (money we can work with later if we need money (e.g. for infrastructure) , so it's 50/50 if you don't look at the share valve takes :) But i guess all these details will be posted here as a blog post so just be patient.

    The promo picture says Alien Reaper skin pack and shows human skin?

    Proceeds going to the ones doing the work, in whatever form, is a good thing. =D>

    If you say "one of the hardest working members", can you mention some landmarks of her achievements in the details? Consider that an indispensable incentive!

    let me be the first to blame you all on the CDT for making my model choices even harder.

    I mean.. Deluxe, shadow, normal, kodiak and soon this one. If we keep this up im running out unique classes to put a model on. :D

    Ok ok ok.. here then.. :x

    ... and they'll be incredibly unique looking when you stand next to any of the other alien skins.

    You're expecting people to play nice and buy just a handful of them? ;))

    You missed his point.
    He meant 1 unique skin for each seperate alien.

    Will the skin pack include skins for Gorge stuff ?
    The fade looks ill. Like an ill person but who will still cut your ass violently. We should call it Heisenberg

    If you buy the pack, like the shadow pack, and Kodiak pack, you get a skin for all lifeforms.
    ..right?

    The Alien skins look like bbq sausages, burnt on one side and still frozen on the other.... ;;)
  • cooliticcoolitic Right behind you Join Date: 2013-04-02 Member: 184609Members
    A little later, we should focus on more marine skins as aliens seems to be getting most of the attention.

    Alien skins look better and are more noticeable. I'd rather have more alien skins.

    No. No Hydra, Clog, or Tunnel skins. Only lifeform skins. This is something we'll try to make very clear in the description for the DLC.
    Okay thanks for the info

    Pretty much. This is a way to test the waters of sort, If we do move forward with some more customization options then we need to make sure people want it. People saying "hell yes" unfortunately does not speak as much as sales volume. We arent in this to make money, but we have a lot of hard working programmers and artists on the team and we wouldnt want to invest their time on something nobody would use in the long term.

    As for the pack, its one large pack with a skin for each alien and a bonus marine shoulder badge. We hope y'all will like them as much as we do and also this is a big thank you to Rant for all her hard work and contributions over the years too!
    As I am able to play good matches with my friends - it's OK for me. It is also good to see that the game do not standing still, it continues to evolve in some ways. We will see how it will affect in the future.

    Well as long as you didn't take a picture of the face skin from Gabe Newell, it's ok I believe.

    The thing is with Gabe; you can't never be 100% sure it's the face skin.

    Oh noooo you can't "un-think" this now...
