Edit: I voted for #3 and #4... but my votes weren't counted. A lot of forum functions aren't working for me. Maybe I need to allow scripts on this website? |

I think this just comes down to where you are at in the game. as someone who has an almost maxed hanger I have "treated" myself to a few paint jobs on bots I have already built up. As a leader of a clan I get asked lots of questions from upgrades to paint jobs, I tell my guys worry about paint AFTER yoy have purchased all the gold weapons and bots you need and get them leveled up first otherwise, your just gonna look pretty while your getting shot up in your level 6 bot.
I think the primary reason they came up with paint was for the maxed guys who have nothing else to spend gold on anymore..and just added appeal for those wanting a different look.

It's a sales tactic. I just feel that it would add more depth to the game to have them add buffs. Reduce weapon cool down, add dmg, add range, splash dmg... ideas are endless. If you truly wanted to sell them and keep bored players interested, add some X factors to builds. |

I wouldn't mind paying for the template and create my own. Now that would be interesting!

I buy some paint jobs because I like looking at them and the change of pace. I also like it when other players have paint jobs because it is interesting to look at, especially in a more boring battle.

As my bots reach a certain level and weapon upgrades I treat myself to a paint job as AU becomes available. Last event left me with gold burning a hole in my pocket and could not resist! Like some of the new ones getting ready to come out though I wish we had more input on paint jobs. They need to even up the options for bots as well. A bit of variety would be most welcome.

</div>Agreed, It would add dynamic, But also then people would complain that the paint job they like the looks of doesnt offer the features of the ugly paint job and they want to swap features.... And then Im sure because its something you can spent money on, People will complain and say " that paintjob is too OP! Pix needs to nerf it!"... |

I actually like Hoplite and Raven. But I still need a ton of other things.

@blythe: A template is a great idea. I might actually fork over Au for that kind of custom athetics, you'd actually have a one of a kind mech... bot. Sorry. I still think of Mech Assult everytime I play. GuitarGuy: I agree people would *itch and moan. One of my biggest urks are the phrases "Nurf" and "OP". Back when I was a Battlefield player the one that pissed me off most was "the explosive shotgun shells are too OP!". Guess I'm just an old school gamer, but I miss the days when Devs released something and couldn't alter stats once it hit the market. Mobile gaming is ruining the video game market. I finally have a paintjob thanks to the anniversary event. Woohoo! A T-rex Stalker! Now I'll be unique... like everyone else... |

I love skins. Why do some people wax their car all the time, and others only run it through the occasional wash at the gas station? I don't think Pixo has even begun to harness the potential in them. Imagine Event only-skins that couldn't be bought but had to be won in the chests? A great prize to chase for some, and no compulsion for those who don't.
Personally, I don't like the idea of skin buffs, though.

All but a few of the current custom skins are just clown suits. If I had a million Au to waste I wouldn't put those goofy things on my bots. When I get all my bots to 12/12 I'm going to make it a habit of hunting down every clown on the field just for fun.

Why should I but the raven skin for my griffin when it costs as much as a Gallahad??!!!!! I would even pay 250 for a skin, but that tops. With low prices I'd probably have all my bots customized, with current prices I don't even consider it.... |

When I get all my bots to 12/12 I'm going to make it a habit of hunting down every clown on the field just for fun. Most of the top players have paint jobs on their bots, so they might be hunting you down as well, thinking that your hanger is not maxed. Paint jobs are fun man. When you spend as much time playing the game as most of us do, a change of scenery is nice. I used to think exactly like you until I tried a paint job on a griffin of mine. I have the hanger I want to take all the way to max now, so I now I have 4 bots with paint jobs and will likely get one on my 5th. I do think though, that you should hold off on paint jobs until you have opened all 5 slots and bought everything you want in your hanger. |

the paint jobs are just fun and something to treat yourself too if you have the AU to get it. as for the getting a buff for buying them nah don't think so, like the car with a neon green paint job or flames on the hood doesn't make go faster or any thing they just like it. idon't own any paint job "yet" but i think it may just make it to "sexy" , thats just to much responsibility the women of the world will get nothing done and i cant have that on my conscience.

Your avatar makes me imagine a Bob Ross inspired paint job. Maybe a few trees and mountains with a shiny stream flowing down the middle. Would look great on a Fury or Natasha.  |

I gots the paints for all the bots that I play that I like the paints for. Ain't rich, but I do have a job and a game budget that I allow myself to use on disposable purchases, like paints. I haven't gotten a 2500 Au paint yet... but I have gotten some 750s... and 1 1500 (I think... can't remember... but wasn't the Gala paint 1500?). I'm waiting on the new Lance skins... and that Ghost Rider lookin' Natty skin... duck yeah Ima bust that B out and hook a few peeps up*!

I own the Lance skin... It just looked right.
Won't get any others until the bots are maxed though. Not a fan of many of them, but some just look right.

Dredd77:The analogy of waxing your car is a bit disproportionate. Waxing, or even a paintjob, doesn't cost half of what the car cost. So, I guess the gripe is cost and value. However; I understand Pix's stance of intriguing maxxed hangers and whales. So, I propose lower paintjob costs and once the bot is maxxed the ability to buy the template.

I bought Gareth paint job and boa paint job when they came out just cause they were cheap and I liked the bots a lot. I guess I had "spare" gold. I don't own lancelots anciles or zeus but I have no interest in using any of them. So I figured why not.
