Please DICE, just let me equip the Regiment skin to all classes

We already have all-class skins, so it's not breaking any rules that haven't already been broken. The best kind of drip is simple drip. I just want to be... not a faceless grunt, obviously this is the typical Delta Forces guy. But I want to be generic. I don't want to be some fancy shmancy named operator part of some super unique elite crew with stupid-looking airsoft kit, three different types of random camos mixed together and a hood with jiggle physics. Just let me be the army man. Hell, make it so the FAST helmet gets replaced with a baseball cap or a boonie if you're Engineer or Recon so you have some semblance of 'class identity'. Sure, whatever. But I just wanna be the guy. Let me be the guy.

Something that I picked up about Red Room that I don't think anyone else has mentioned yet

I was at the Adelaide show on Monday. Fucking great set, by the way. Also would like to give a shoutout to Static Dress, had no idea who they were beforehand but definitely going to listen to their studio material now that I know. Was about to head out the door after the encore of Is It Really You? / Gored. Suddenly, they close the set with a song very dear to my heart; The World Spins by Julee Cruise.

Now, there's a 95% chance that anyone that knows about Julee Cruise knows about her through David Lynch and Twin Peaks. This song plays at a very climatic moment in the original run, I won't say much more than that other than the younger folks here really should watch the show. Anyway, one of the most famous set pieces in Twin Peaks is the Black Lodge, which is also referred to as the waiting room... and the red room.

From reading around it says they named the song after the set they recorded the majority of the material in, but I don't think it's a coincidence. Maybe they set up the room like that because of having Twin Peaks in their mind? Dunno. You could read the lyrics as referring to the fate of one of the main villains of the original run, but it's a tenuous connection.

I wish we got a similar system to this on the M4A1

I know this wouldn't matter to many people. But it'd matter to me.

They should have either done this or made the default M4A1 one of the modern upgrade packages that comes standard with a low-profile gas block under a full-length rail (Block II or URGI).

Some of the new attachments got me thinking. Some ideas

I really wish they would lean into weapon customisation a bit more seeing as they've obviously given up on the idea of the gear in this game ever replicating a real soldier's kit. Maybe one day!

[Discussion] With all the changes to prestiging and progression this quest needs a rework. You see maybe 1-2 level 50s a week while playing nonstop.

[Screenshot] In today's news, I found out that the MK14 chassis has Comic Sans rollmarks, and of course they're replicated in EFT

I never really looked properly on the right side of the model. I don't know why I expected any less from BSG, honestly.

While we're here I feel like I should point out that we're missing a couple of options when it comes to this chassis... the plastic handguard is optional, and there's a full picatinny rail underneath that could be used for mounting foregrips. On top of that, there's a VFG that also screws straight into the handguard if you want to keep the full look of the chassis going. I hope we get an asset rework of the M1A that adds those options in the near future. I wouldn't take off the handguard myself, I think it looks really ugly without it, but it'd be nice to have the option for the Sage VFG.

Been hoping we'd get more boonies, berets and baseball caps as part of the battlepasses or something at least. Thankfully we've finally gotten a couple more of the caps... but we need way more! And of course it's strange how few options for gas masks there are yet. I get obviously they don't function outside of wearing for quests (we saw potassium tablets teased a couple of months back, maybe Icebreaker will bring radiation?), but they're still really common pieces of kit.
