subject: Feedback Regarding Skippy Alternator Skin Upgrades
Hello Apex Legends Team,
I purchased the Skippy Alternator skin during the Cyberpunk event. When I made the purchase, I believed I would still be able to access and complete the weapon’s upgrade options after the event had ended.
However, after the event ended, I discovered that I can no longer upgrade the skin I paid for. This was very disappointing, especially because the upgrade restriction was not clear to me at the time of purchase.
Because I was not aware of this limitation, I was only able to complete one upgrade using the Exotic Shards available during the event. I planned to receive my next paycheck and complete the remaining upgrades then. As a result, I ended up spending approximately $180 on a weapon skin with very limited effects, while being unable to access its remaining upgrades afterward.
I understand that events are time-limited, but permanently removing the ability to upgrade a cosmetic item that players have already purchased creates a frustrating experience. This also seems to be a recurring issue with collaboration events, where players lose access to upgrades or related content once the event ends.
I believe upgrades for event-purchased items should remain available after the event, or this limitation should be communicated much more clearly before purchase.
Please reconsider enabling upgrade access for players who own the Skippy Alternator skin, and consider addressing this issue for future collaboration events as well.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
