Introducing skins is good, some variety never hurt

Once again though the weapons seem meh and the armour options are largely the same as what we have.

Then we have the knife, i assume after use you need to retrieve it and its only good for 1 enemy. Hands up whose going to use that

I would have preferred a longer wait for a new warbond that actually added something to the game other than weapons or armour wont use.

In the blog post they said after this one they are going to slow down the release pace of war bonds so they are more meaningful, hopefully the next one is what you’re asking for

I would definitely use the knife on my silly level 5 dives. Bots are going to have nightmares.

I'm down with the shotgun side arm.

Save your SCs for the next one, then. With Illuminate coming into the game shortly, I imagine the next Warbond will probably have more variety in the gear types specifically for dealing with the new faction, and will probably be more flashy.

I hope so. I also hope they are able to incorporate more of the grand strategy happening into the game. But they have to cater to the lowest common denominator. And just popping out an external browser on consoles is probably not as simple to implement as on PC.

In all I don't like the style and what was added. The skin visible, just does not feel like future soldiers who are there to ~~subjegate~~ liberate the galaxy. But that's fine too.
