Question Regarding Metal Weapon Skins | Forums

[TexasRocks2]

Well, I was thinking that all metal skins are in the crates. Are you saying you've unlocked all crate items and still don't have the other three metals? That would be strange.

I believe those other three metals are in prestige crates now, but at the time I unlocked what was then "everything" from battlecrates only gold and steel were in the battlecrate pool and prestige crates did not yet exist.

Ah, then that makes sense. They just forgot something on the other three when they were added later. It can be fixed, but will they? Alien, do I need another thread, or can you pass it on from here?

Another PS4 player here, and I also have this issue with aluminium but not steel. (don't have the others)
So you're not alone about this.

Yeah it looks like it's all platforms. Just need to find someone on PC that can test aluminum, titanium, and copper, to see if those don't work for them as well. I'm thinking it's gonna be the same result as PS4.

Just purchased the pack to test it myself on PC. Texas (or anyone) if you have a screenshot showing the issue, that could be super helpful.

Can't post a screen shot, but can better explain it. I paint the weapon, say titanium. When I go to parts and select scope, there's no option to change the color of that part at the bottom of the screen. There's only one color square, titanium, where as there are several colors to choose from when using all other skins.

For example, I go into weaponsmirh on my tan painted hk416. Select parts, then scope, and I have four color squares at the bottom of the screen to choose from. Tan, black, khaki, brown. I don't get these options with metals. The entire gun is painted the same metal color and I can't change anything, which sucks out loud.

EDIT: just saw your screenshots. Yes that's exactly my problem, I'm not seeing what you see. If I paint a weapon gold, gold is the only square at the bottom. No other options. Metals are the only skins I have this issue with.

I have the same thing as you Texas. Black is available for parts when using the gold/steel presets on the HK416. Not sure what's intended or not, as it may depend on the weapon.

No I've tested it on multiple weapons. M4, 416, Mk14, BFG 50A, U100, ACS 12. All the same.

Black is an option for accessories on gold and steel.

There is no other color option on aluminium, titanium, or copper.

If you paint your gun titanium, for example. Then select parts, and select scope, there's only one square at the bottom. "1/1 Titanium", is the only option.

EDIT: Btw thank you for replying.

That post you quoted was before I realized gold and steel did work for me. I had only tried the other three, and assumed gold and steel would be the same. Sorry for the confusion.

I would like to know if this is going to be fixed or not. If not, since I only bought the pack for aluminium, and titanium, and those are broken, I should get a refund. How would I go about that?

Any help would be nice. To answer my last post I mean.
