At least for me, thats exactly my opinion.
Example:
1 i buy a premium squad with “red” uniform
2 Now i can buy the “red” uniform in the customization menu for other squads for (cards or gold)

As an addition if i have a premium squad and i dont use it i could replace their clothes with default ones and i could take the special clothes to other squads without having to spend cards

but that’s illogical.
why should everyone be forced to pay for a squad that it’s not remotely interesting ( for them ) just to use a fraction of said content?.
we can buy the brown coat and white helmet that were available for mp41 & mg 13 drum squads. same deal with the gerat pants.
why only those items, and not the rest?
you are just giving them excuses to lock them behind premium squads, and keep the customization selection lacklaster at best.
pretty selfish if you ask me.
again, customization outside rare cases, should be available to everyone ( to specify, since a lot confusion, what i mean everyone, i mean to purchase with customization cards in the normal customization section ).
if you want to have it for free on other squads, as well as prem bonuses and the various weapons them selves, buy the premium squad.
if not, you shouldn’t be forced to.
which it’s even funny if we consider that you have bought the squad, but somehow you should pay more for letting the same users use the various appearance on other squads but with customization cards?
how are you not seeing the absurdity of it?
one might argue the same about the weapon, but i think the weapon it self once you buy the premium squad, you can give at least one or two of premium weapons to other non prem squads. to make them interesting. but that’s another discussion for another time.
I am not selfish. I just suggested it because the idea is realistic and its at least something. You know just like me that they will not do it for free. They wont do it in the future either. This suggestion should just be at least something, to get access to the premium squads uniforms. If you do not like this idea, i guess the devs would just change nothing, that means not even the slightest improvement in cosmetics, and premium squads uniforms stay locked to their squads…

convinient*
but they did!.
are you just gonna pretend they didn’t ?
then what’s your excuse for paratroopers uniforms of the british made for an event squad available to everyone else outside said squad?
dishonest at best.
and it is still, technically, not free as you do need appearance orders.
not to mention, the artificial scarcity is on purpose so that people actually spend money on it.
so no.
i refuse to entertain such thoughts.
if you have given up, just say so.
but i will not bend to such idiocy.
and the fact that those two follow along without actually critically thinking it through it’s even worse.
no.
that’s just an " it’s at least something " in the short term.
not long term.
because guess what, you’re actively shriking the customization.
is that really what you want?
i’m starting it to see.
but just because we havn’t got **** in past years regarding the customization is not a valid exscuse to make it worse for everyone and make it more of a cash grab than it already is.
yes i do not like this idea.
and no, devs definitely should change everything.
literally, everything.
because to this day, enlisted customization is one of the worse that anyone ever whitnessed in a free to play.
heck, even in other gams ( such as the rivals ) you are able to use the same customization across multiple characters of different form etc.
even fortnite with the lego stuff 
those, are people that actually care.
enlisted on the other hand, not so much.
wrong conclusions.
What a surprise people are interested in paying for exclusivity.

i don’t care people personal selfish reasons in all honesty.
it’s almost ironic as it’s often used " i got it cuz it’s unique "
no.
you bought it because you want to feel special and unique.
the fact that you look at others and be slighlty upset because what you bought isn’t available just for you says alot more about you than anyone else.
beside, the bonuses and the weapons most of those squads comes from ARE unique. whether you acknowledge it or not.
doesn’t mean the customization should.
especially when are different things for different purposes.
to put it bluntly,
one is upset that the customization isn’t available in a basic ww2 game.
the other is upset that the others would get access to the basic customization that should be in a ww2 game but he bought alongside the weapon that they come with.
i’m sure you can figure that out.
ps.
you guys wanna see something funny?
i’ll let you be the judge of that and see how " great " is it really gonna get:
what we know is terrible.
what we Don’t know, is probably even worse.
I disagree. I actually think exclusively paid cosmetics are not a bad way for the devs to earn money. I think premium guns should not be premium at all. But clothing is definetly okay in my opinion.
You wish for everything to be free, and that is simply not possible. I would have liked it too of course, but that will not happen and wont in the future.
Cosmetics is the only fair way a game should use real currency.
At least make it usable for vickers para squad. Their helmet has no armor while red beret is armored.
Additionally, seeing how helmet from vickers squad is now used by half the British army in Bulge, it would add some uniqueness back to that unit.
But isnt helmet armour useless as you get oneshotted anyway from headhot? Also there are black and tan berets
Nah, you totally missed my point. Why not take advantage of it if people are interested? 🤷♂
you’re clutching the straws here.
are we gonna pretend premium vehicles, aircrafts, customization of vehicles, decals, squad upgrades,
soldiers, fomo events, and the others 1000 microtransations aren’t enough?
are you really that blind?
i honestly expected better.
have some self effing respect and dignity please.
not for me. but your self.
although, above all what strucks to me:
so… you’re the one who in the past chanted for historical accurate Bses and yet is completely fine with camouflaged ( TO BE EXPECTED ) in a ww2 game more harder to obtain, than half of the premium weapons that were actually some protos, replacements, not widely used to take a toll in the game?
i guess we’ll have to agree to disagree.
when did i sayed that?
is everything actually that free?
can actually anyone just use the cosmetic that they want without having to invest their time for the appearance orders, or just like me, straight up with gold camouflages?
what are you even saying?
walk me through to the process of " you wish for everything to be free ".
i really wanna know now.
i’m not sure you do to be honest.
not after several statements.
i do believe you’re acting for selfish reasons.
but of course, i could be wrong.
like, that’s some faulty logic at work.
" just because they didn’t do anything up until now, it’s best to castrate the customization for everyone."
sounds to me like that.
and the fact that it has gotten so bad that people are willing giving up just for short term gratification it’s, baffling and horrible.
so, i’m not sure how dooming the customization as a whole favors anyone in this scenario.
i’m sure getting some default base customization of every other title on planet earth would be better.
you know, the thing every other f2p does.
which, i think you still completely missed my point, as buying the prem squad would allow to have use on any other squad WITHOUT having to buy more or spend tickets on it.
i guess you prefer to do it the hard and worse way.
ever heard of the phrase " you give them the hand, and they’ll take your arm " ?
taking advantages it’s one thing.
what is happening in enlisted, is totally another.
Idk, but I definitely do not feel that enlisted has some extreme predatory monetary policy.
i can definitely walk you through.
but we’d be here for ages.
which, it’s beside the point for what we are discussing here.
I don’t mind supporting Enlisted, so I don’t care either way.
But it seems to me you’re not thinking with a clear head lately and you’re permanently triggered.
neither do i.
but for the right things.
not every fucking ounce of pixels for basically most of the basic stuff.
stug IIIs, Calliopes, etc.
legit, most of the premiums vehicle were more of event material and events / go were more of premium material.
as much you’re fine with it, doesn’t mean everyone else is.
because i’m growing tired of waiting and having to argue with other fellow forum remembers for what should have been considered granted for now.
if anything, sounds like shills aren’t precisely thinking it clear.
( p.s. i guess i could be considered a shill too given the ammount of premium stuff that should have been in the tech tree or event vehicles but i’m not that blind )
Historical accuracy is simply not possible anymore. Way too many experimental guns which are not even accurate timewise. I accepted that. Enlisted is heading into a different direction, but it is still a really fun game for me.
You want customization to be accessable by just playing, without having to invest real money. That means “for free” to me, as you do not have to pay. Simple to understand.
It is not selfish to accept reality. Cosmetics have mostly been the only way developers could earn money from it. No matter which game genre. (Hell let loose, Battlefield, Call of duty etc.) So it for me it would be completely okay if the enlisted devs would behave like every other game developer.
Other way around i could say it is selfish of you to want customization freely accessable, without thinking of it being a fair and common way for the developers to earn money too, as the game itself is also free.
I did not miss that point. I think it would be a great idea, i just do not think it will be possible, and i could bet that it will never happen (but feel free to prove me wrong enlisted)

that’s the " issue " though.
it’s a double standard that you actively partecipate with.
it’s fine for weapons to be available, but not for effing common & widely used camouflages for no apparent reason?.
it wasn’t like that for them to begin with.
i’d call it more " accessible " rather than outright lock it for again, no apparent reason other than monetary ones.
which the key factor would be, if skins were the only income for this game, then rest case.
i would understand, accept it, and move on.
but since, once again, it’s one of many microtransation, makes no sense to lock it for a fraction of squads.
it just becomes stug III Ausf G situation, but worse.
most of these squads with basic colorations and camouflages ( such as polish bar, wz semi auto rifle, field m3 modification, sk and many, many others squads) often are no longer obtainable and lost forever.
not even added to the list like it happened with them mp41 squad and others half partial cosmetics sets available.
what reality.
that’s no reality. that’s resignation and partake in the issue rather than actively tackle it.
the rest as i explained and pointed out if it wasn’t clear to you, there are many other microtransations.
even on common tanks, vehicles, or weapons that took it’s place.
stuff like the SU 76, churchill, stug III etc.
so, it does not justify to lock it entirely and make it expensive at the, ( no pun ) expense of literally everyone.
which, i like to remind you, i didn’t made half of this stuff up.
you can even trace it:
wow… what next, you will be willing to pay a small fee to enter the game too?
lol
based on what
what proves to me, is that half of the community just gave up on simple principles and are willing to actively make it worse for everyone because " welp, it didn’t worked before so " and legit are looking for short term gratifications.
fuck that.
honestly.
i’m shocked by half of the things you just said.
well, perhaps it is a lost cause given the insane support for such radical ideas and indiffierences in this thread.
