    Greetings,

    After looking over the requests and feedback, the graphics team has decided that when adding metallic equipment in the future, even if dyes are used, the metallic quality will be maintained and not appear to be painted over. They also mentioned that they will be looking into doing this for existing equipment as well, but they would like to prioritize new equipment.

    I say you people do not deserve this wish granted, it's not good :/

    That is fantastic news, I've edited the original post to reflect it.

    That's a great impasse (even if there's no time to edit the current gear), that'll do grand.

    I understand WHY the equipment team did things this way, after all armor coated in paint wouldn't shine like metal (unless it was glossy paint lol), but it just does not look nearly as good. I am glad to see that are going to change this. Now if we had assurance that the equipment team would never make another peace of tin can tank armor.... :P

    Thank you very much!

    I'm really happy I wil be able to choose the colour without losing armour shiny looks.
    Does this apply to clothes shades too?

    Now this is what I like to see. Square actually taking in ideas/feedback from their customers. Keep up with this, and you'll have much happier customers.

    Well, in this case it really is asking them to be lazy about their work because we can't appreciate it so hey, more power to them.
