Will ice & graphite tactical paints ever be back?

S0rkvild · Oct 10, 2019

We're after third patch and still no sign of best looking paints. Why is that? We're raising the issue of missing tactical paints after afftery patch and seems like we're all ignored. Sigh...

Probably being 'saved' for a special .... maybe Black Friday or ..... Christmas countdown

Speaking of, I'm wondering if anything else will come for black friday. Not just midnight paint but maybe pilot holo clothes.
Slightly off topic, but still a thread bumper.

I don't think so, salvage paints still for other ships except for DBX, it was before patch 2 .They said they retouched the color, because you didn't see the main color, only the stripes and letters .

it's as if they had completely forgotten to reintroduce them after the patch, even Will or Stephen replied that they were aware.

i think the more important question is how the tactical ice white paint differs from the stock dolphin paint ?!?!

We have Friday aka new paint day and I was hoping that missing paints would be restored, but no.

NO REASON buy any ARX then

More importantly, when will the Clipper ship kit return?

It has returned. Yesterday, I believe.

Ah, not sure if it's on there yet. You would think all items would be available across all platforms simultaneously... but we can't expect the intern who is working on the current version of the game to make sensible choices all the time.

some have returned, like salvage for DBX, news for FDL (tare great) .... but those of tactical ice and other are missing in all ships, there are only 4 tactical paints of the old package ,maybe they are fixing them

Personally im hoping for either the white or gold wire frame skins to return at xmas but im guessing thats a very long shot

My Type-7 NEEDS the Tactical White paint. It's a crime this was removed from the game.... I guess Frontier doesn't want my Arx.

[PS4] Filthymick420 · Oct 11, 2019

Frontier already has all the ARX. they have soooo many, they are just giving them away to everyone everyday lmafo

Lightspeed · Oct 11, 2019

Well at least we will get a store to browse again (eventually). See here

Yeah, it’s there now. Still can‘t buy Arx from the game menu though

This one?

S0rkvild · Oct 12, 2019

Excuse me @Will Flanagan we're here 🖐
We would like to know what is going on with missing paintjobs - tactical ice & tactical graphite and we we can't purchase them?

13A · Oct 12, 2019

Are they only missing from the store or are they missing for people who previously owned them?
I can still see Graphite and Ice in my livery options, but I bought the tactical pack a while ago.

This reminds me of when Palin vanished from the game for a few days and people lost their minds
