default skins
just like fortnite seeing more and more elite players abusing default skin to look like a new player and or avoid getting targeted...very scummy tactic. Played against 6 of 8 default corns and impos...

@spIash_damage I guess it depends on the reason for the custom skins being used? 🤔
I've come across some who appear to be doing it because they think other players will go easier on them, which is what I assumed was being referred to....
If it's to avoid being targeted, I can understand & sympathise with it.

It’s a double edged sword (for certain) but I really wanted to share with Gormey a different perspective.
... I guess my upbringing (with all same skins) caused me to prefer similar skins. If I had it my way, ALL characters would share one skin only.
EDIT: furthermore: at the cut screen, in BA (before the match), opponents get to see one another and if you play a person more than one time, you IMMEDIATELY recognize their unique characters. For me, 9 times out of 10, I’m stuck on a team with 3 noobs who all emote/taunt pre-game. When this happens, the emotes show the other team the emoter’s name and it further narrows down identification of enemies/you can’t really hide. In these scenarios and ESPECIALLY when you’re on the bad side of unfair teams, the ONLY chance you have is to blend in with noobs or leave the server (something I only do for emergencies).
I could ramble on and on about this but in BA and when I employ certain character skins, it’s usually in the name of fairplay and not trying to be scummy. Hope this makes sense.
- @spIash_damage Yes, tricky! I did always love the GW2 portal events where everyone was playing with basic characters - I'd really like to see that as an event in here as well.
- @spIash_damage Are you suggesting all of us emoters are noobs? :D
Just kidding, but in all seriousness just because you emote doesn't make you a noob.

@Gormey I don’t exactly run from a good time (targeters). I’ve played against every person in this forum I know of on PS4 and that’s just not my style; I don’t think you’ll find a more aggressive playstyle than my own on console/using a factory controller.
Still, when 3-4 good guns team up against you in the Funderdome, it’s a bit different than TV or TT (all due respect, you eluded to the same fact).
EDIT: I haven’t played against @GutmanSca but need to exchange PSN ID’s and I’d be happy to join him on a European server. 😊👍
