    Default Why no skin for level 400 ?

    I'm almost level 400 and I can't believe that epic haven't provided any weapon skin or character skin for level 400...
    Why re ups are worth skins but final level not ? I can't understand it :-(

    Maybe you'll get something big in the next Gears

    Level 400 should be the transparent skin imo

    We SHOULD have a weapon skin for level 400.
    The only problems that grind my gears in Gears:
    1. Being forced to be Marcus/Drone, especially when I never left the match.
    2. The cover glitch that only happens to the 3 Kantus characters http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/...ntus-LE-glitch
    3. Inconsistent bot names and models: Marcus bot = Anya *? Classic Cole bot = Marcus *?

    When they first released Fenix Rising , I believed that you gained Recruit Clayton for Reaching White 100 & Prestiging and so on for the rest of the characters lol.

    I personally don't care, I still enjoy the game and wasn't disappointed when I achieved level 400.

    No you got Recruit Clayton for getting the DLC.

    Only the core characters needed to be unlocked by level.

    I don't like any of the reup skins. They aren't up to much.

    yeah but that's a lot of boosting, so i think it should still unlock a skin. War hero should also.

    Then they should have one for 3.0 and War Hero etc. They get a hefty Xp rise and a medal. With 3.0 you also get an achievement. So no need for the skins, you get GOLD wings.

    Gold wings were there long before the Bronze ones. I had Gold right at the start. Now I have them again

    I find them remarkably easy to distinguish. Maybe something is wrong with your TV, maybe the brightness is too low. Or maybe it is just a SDTV.

    Well I have always been able to tell. I also had the Gold prior to Fenix Rising, so I can probably tell more easily. I was actually not going to re-up as I liked my Gold. When I seen the Bronze, they looked like crap. So I decided to go all the way to 400. When I reached 200 I found out the Gold was the last re-up wings. I loved the Green ones, but decided to re-up again.

    Heck no, blue wings would look crap. I seen them on another thread. I wish I stayed at Green though.

    I can tell the difference between the skins.

    That doesn't mean the lvl 400 wings look good, because they don't.

    They are very similar and regardless of your television quality, they don't look that impressive. Not looking forward to getting them.

    Gold Electric (re-up 3) should've been the skin you get for reaching 400.

    Think about it; Gold Omen (Level 100) - Gold Plasma (Level 101 (?)). It doesn't make sense.

    It should be: Gold Omen (100) - Gold Plasma (200) - Red Omen (300) - Gold Electric (400).

    Actually, how about:

    Gold Omen (100) - Gold Plasma (200) - Gold Electric (300) - Gold Liquid Metal (400)

    Then 3.0 should of been - Team Transparent (EPIC dev's pixelated camo)

    My ideas.
    These ideas are what i think would keep people wanting to play the game for another year or so without becoming bored to death.
    2 more re-ups: ivory wings and onyx wings. ivory re-up will have purple numbers for the level while onyx re-up will have orange. (like how the gold re-up has blue numbers)
    ivory will require 2x more experience to reach 100 and onyx will require 3x as much. (to make use of all the onyx medal experience points that are going to waste)
    for re-uping from blue to ivory, you gain a new community made weapon skin voted for by the community. for re-uping from ivory to onyx, you unlock skorge and the child's play weapon skin (or whatever the community find's worthy), and for reaching your onyx wings and having the seriously 3.0 achievement, you unlock thrashball drone and the epic weapon skin.

    A little suggestion to Epic, in future DLC give us one more re up and give us a badass wing and a unique badass gun skin. There's actually a amazing thread with a lot of skins, take the level 400 skins!

    For me it should be : Gold Plasma ( 100 ) - Red Omen ( 200 ) - Gold Electric ( 300) - Gold Omen or Gold skin in gears 2 style ( whole gun covered in gold) for level 400

    I am so glad that there are no skins for Seriously as its just a horrible achievement. A skin on Embry would have made more sense, as more players could still get it, but its still required a ton of work.

    Thank you for continuing to prove that people will complain about anything and everything.

    It's fine how it is, there is no need to give an extra weapon skin for level 400, you get one at level 301 and that is fine.

    I don't see why this matters, it's extremely easy to tell the difference between level 100 and level 400.

    The 400 wings and 100 wings are similar, but I can tell the difference

    Also, you didn't say they weren't different. You just said they were similar.

    Nobody can deny that, because they are.

    Regardless of how easy people think it is to distinguish between them, that isn't the point most people are making.

    100 and 400 wings have no real identity to seperate them. For that reason, they are a bit disappointing.
