Socks
I just want a pair of basic and plain white socks and black socks. Why aren't these available in game?
You really shouldn't have to level up neighborhood rep / open lootboxes for a pair of simple white socks...
There's no reason why basic cosmetic items should be that difficult to earn...
Basic cosmetic items are not difficult to get at all, as long as you do your daily challenges you should get enough chips to open multiple boxes and you level up at the same time while your doing this so what is difficult about that... All you have to do is play the game.
ItssSmokeyy I think you're missing the point...
Yes, cosmetic items are easy to unlock by just playing the game... But, you shouldn't have to grind for rep/currency, than roll the dice opening lootboxes for a chance to win something like white socks...
Making everyone work for cosmetic upgrades is fine... But nobody should have to waste time/money just to get the most basic items...
So if it was an in-game clothing store like the other skate games you wouldn't have to grind for rep to unlock "the most basic" items no..?
Fair enough most of the clothing items in the loot boxes are **bleep** but buying the boxes isn't just for cosmetics, you need to buy boxes to level up your rip score or you are going to progress at the slowest rate ever.
Takes 2 hours at most to do the daily challenges for your rip chips then you spend them on boxes because you can't use them for anything else... If you don't like the clothing you get from the boxes don't wear them, buy something from the store.
So if it was an in-game clothing store like the other skate games you wouldn't have to grind for rep to unlock "the most basic" items no..?
No, you wouldn't. In previous Skate games you were able to customize your character with a pretty decent variety of clothing on creation and then go to the in-game clothing store for further options.
Players in these forums were asking for a basic pair of skinny jeans for months, well guess what? Now it costs $10 just to get the privilege of grinding for them in the Skate Pass.
What's your point, we should all say thank you to EA for drip feeding us content while we grind reputation and currency like an MMO for lootbox rolls on plain t-shirts? Seriously, what could possibly drive you to defend **bleep** like this? It's wild.
buying the boxes isn't just for cosmetics, you need to buy boxes to level up your rip score
And you need to level up your rip score because...? Do you know what a Skinner box is? Because you're in one.
