Seems this way.
Since boosters went on sale, we didnt had a new costume pack for free.
Ok, we got new faces at I15 and those tight/pattern ulterior and vines. Then just a minor upgrade like animated tails.
In the end, we didnt got cake in this matter for 4 issues by now. Thats almost 1 year and half.
Hope I20 comes with the upgrade of old pieces, like hairstyles, belts, shoulders and so on with new textures and higher definition.
Maybe buying those boosters was no a good idea. They also seem to go from awesomeness of the magic pack to something not well finished and lacking half of stuff mutant pack.
Is frustrating to keep waiting months to see whats in the next issue just to find we still have to keep waiting... Sounds doomish but, not model upgrade, not martial arts for blasters, not bo/staff or whips, no pool customization, not new choices for APP and PPP...
At least in the old good times we get new costumes for free.

Short answer: No player who is at liberty to say knows right now, so we can't tell you. There's always more in an issue than is listed in the first announcement, so no one is sure. i only recall one issue where new costume pieces being in the issue was in any of the earliest announcements.

Slightly longer answer: This is still the forum for asking other players questions and the rest of your post makes it evident that the question in the OP title was more rhetorical and you're simply complaining here because... okay, i have no idea why you didn't simply post this in the General Discussion section that is for threads like this. Are the posters there too mean?

... sounds that way to me.
Issue 16: Customizable power sets.
Issue 17: Ultra Mode.
Going Rogue [admittedly a purchase]: Alpha and Omega, at least one new aura

So yeah, your character looks EXACTLY the same as they did after I15 and there's nothing you can do to change that.


Mini-guides: Force Field Defenders, Blasters, Market Self-Defense, Frankenslotting.

So you think you're a hero, huh.
@Boltcutter in game.

We got some costumes with i18, not all were connected to GR.


Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.

Like what?
All the costumes we got are part of GR or Complete collection so, no free costumes for I18.

Gee. That sounds really horrible when you ignore the stuff that did get added for free. I can see why you should complain.

Oh wait. No I can't, because cherry picking facts and minimizing what has been done to make your position seem stronger is dumb.

Minor... time consuming and oftrequested... upgrade like animated tails.

I19 will add 2 new auras and alternate animations to many blaster powers.

No new costumes.

Oh well, this will be another 'disappointing' issue for the OP.

Me? I'll be enjoying the all the new contents.

Sport and overguard. Also, no they weren't. Just because it's not on the overview page doesn't mean it wasn't part of it.

That's good to know. For a guy like me who started off w/ the Complete Collection, it's harder to keep track of what we got "with the issue" and what we got with the Complete Collection.

Actually rednames have shown up: War Witch graced our presence a year and a half ago. That's the only one I can remember but I think there have been others.

Aside from that fun fact... maybe it's because I've been around too many years, but I don't understand the request for free costume changes. Are players going broke spending all of their inf at the Tailor? What is the going rate for major costume changes these days? Does it get into the tens of millions? I don't think I've paid for anything at the tailor since i3.

I just read that there's a Day Job which grants 25% discount tokens ("Fashion Designer", by logging out at Icon or Facemaker), then there's the 57 month vet reward ("Abiding") that gives 50% off. In case anyone didn't now about them. I sure didn't. It's too bad we can't sell free costume changes on the market; I'd rake in some coin on that endeavor!

As long as I know, those sets are both part of the paid expansion GR.

Free costumes. Not free costume changes. They want more costumes added via free updates versus being forced to pay for the booster packs.

I just dont like the fact that we dont have any new FREE costume since I15.
If you happy with that, ok. Im not, its my opinion.
Im not minimizing nothing, and Im thankful of what they did in the past for free, but this is now and since boosters went on sale, they keeping the good stuff to sell it.
I think thats greedy. I know this is business, but I think they should come with some free costumes and some for paid boosters. Not 1 and half year without adding a single one.
Im just concerned because I dont see a balance when it comes to costumes. Pay or nothing.
I think support on your knees whatever the devs do is dumb also.

Retracted. the GR website lists Sport and Overguard as coming with the expansion, the Wiki does too. Where does it say they were with I18?

Apologies Axelman.

How many times do people have to repeat it? You got 2 with i18, Overguard and Sport.
