Hey SGMers! I hope you're all enjoying the anniversary update! Now that most of the big work is behind us, me and the team finally have the time to deal with the smaller adjustments and issues that came with it. One of those issues is improving the anniversary skins we released. While we are very happy to see that the majority of the content was well accepted, some things remained a bit... controversial. The first one we're looking to deal with is the Golden H.U.G.E. weapon skin. It was long anticipated by many members of the community, but unfortunately, it seems not everyone is happy with the design we chose. Many have mentioned the skins seems unfinished or rushed. That's not the case, mind you - we chose to go with the mixed style on purpose - like with the Golden Shotgun and Golden Scout. However, it seems many of you disagree with our choice here. Therefore, we decided it may be best to put this in the hands of the community and let you decide what to do with the skin. Following your protesting, we created two alternative variations of the skins, as shown below, and in this thread, you will have the chance to vote on which version will make it into the game permanently. Current Version Variation 1 Variation 2 And now, we need your help in deciding. Please vote in the poll above for your favorite variation. We will use this data to decide which version of the skin to apply in-game. Of course, if you have ideas for additional improvements, we'd love to hear them. Post them in this thread so we can keep track of everything. And before you ask - yes, we're aware that some of the other skins could use some more work as well - i.e. the Rank HexShield. This is planned as well. (Many, many thanks to @Doben who created the original skin, the different variations, and many of the anniversary skins ) Happy debating! ~Opalium
I like the second option because it gives a more realistic look to the gun, just like the golden scout.
Variation 1 looks good because it looks more realistic, but I also like variation 2 because its all gold.. ahhh.. Variation 2.
Can you put actual golden reflections on the weapons so they don't look like plastic, takes no effort to do that Both variations also aren't coloured correctly on the edges
why are all these golden skins allergic to cubemaps to make them actually shine? @Rare Endangered Spycrab
So... have we just forgotten about this? It's still as ugly as it was when it launched. Where's the change to variation 2?
unpopular opinion: current variation gives a good balance of steel and gold and therefore looks dank as fuck
