That's a lot of time and effort to erase then to reacquire everything that I've accomplished so far. I'm still waiting for the extra slot for hardcore mode.

    There are gear variants between 1 - 30 that you may not have picked up. Granting you everything for simply reaching L40 kinda defeats the purpose of collecting them as you go.

    Not my problem, if the feature was there I would have farmed it. It wasn't so I shouldn't have to leave all my progress to go backwards. If I had a free slot I would do it.

    Well, it wasn't. Just as many of the brands we have now weren't there at launch. Sucks to be you I guess.

    And that has nothing to do with anything cuz that can be farmed now I don't have to create a time machine for that. Doesn't suck at all. I will live just fine.

    what the devs COULD do is make those textiles useful...

    for this reason. That would make much more sense.

    i wouldn't delete an agent just for cosmetics... personally.. but then again i haven't been playing this game for a week or 2 now.

    This feels like another lazy maneuver to make players redo content. The L1->L39 visual library should be instantly unlocked for all players that are already at L40.

    I forgot about those players that have already 4 characters created. Deleting 1 because they're too lazy to add that part of the code or can't increase the stash space without crashing the entire Ubisoft infrastructure so that players won't utilize other characters as mules is not a wise game design decision.

    Heck... what do I know...

    probably many have forgotten about them too.. but most importantly.. the devs introduce "new" ideas/features.. yet they don't follow through .. textiles came out.. as a good solution at the time they came.. but there hasn't been follow up.. much like skill vanity slots.. and many other things..

    Sometimes it takes simple tweaking and not major overhauls to improve things.. but hey.. since I ain't a developer/programmer.. what do i know?.. but those are my opinions.. hopefully it helps stir the direction into something more positive for the next nubile Agent activated into this game.

    For those interested, there is a purple Petrov backpack that has the SHD logo on it



    And a blue Sokolov chest piece for those who don't like seeing chest armor on their toons
