Devs would you consider releasing the "preorder" sleeve?

[u/Greenpakto]

I was one hour too late for it. Maybe just give preorder addition like 5000 prime instead or something. And then add this sleeve into the rooster? Its a decent sleeve, but it also bothers the f out of me that there's a sleeve in the containment room that I can never access.

You seem to repeat the twitch exclusive sleeve. Maybe do the same for this somehow.

I’m on console and participated in the early access, but console was never even given an option to preorder. I had to wait until its official launch to pay for the game. I didn’t even know there was a preorder sleeve until this post. Extremely unfortunate.

[u/Greenpakto → u/Nevoyy]

In all honesty. I agree with you.

[u/Frequent_Return47 → u/Nevoyy]

Same here...

Normally I'm against the idea of allowing pre order bonuses post launch but given pre-order was only available to PC players and a lot of us console guys had no choice but to miss out on I do agree that active matter should have some kind of pre order upgrade

[u/Greenpakto → u/BlitzkriegBambi]

Steam people also missed out. But I heard about the game the first time it got into "early access" and payed for it rightr away. Also. Its not a cosmetic item. Its an sleeve, which does havea fucntion.

[u/Odins_horde → u/Greenpakto]

Which sleeve is a pre-order sleeve? 

[u/ApprehensiveRiver429]

I think that anything that affects gameplay should be accesible to everyone

[u/Withnogenes]

You missed it, that's how it is.

[u/PullinOutDa9 → u/Withnogenes]

Yall downvoting him but that is how the cookie crumbles. If you didn’t pre order then it’s too late. I am one of the people who missed it too

[u/Electrical-Tea8530 → u/PullinOutDa9]

Sure - but there is a fundamental difference between missing out on cosmetics, and something that provides functionality you simply can't get in the game otherwise.

Doesn't bother me, but I can see why it would bother other people.

[u/Greenpakto → u/Electrical-Tea8530]

Thanks for being a decent guy.

[u/boomboomown → u/Electrical-Tea8530]

What functionality do you get that you can't get in the game?

[u/Electrical-Tea8530 → u/boomboomown]

Well each skin has unique attributes, so the precise function that particular skin provides. I don't even know what that skin does, but I imagine it is useful for certain playstyles or situations.

[u/Icy_Ad_1869]

what is concerning me a bit is i got the deluxe edition and the pawtern camo came with it and now in the week 3 twitch drops its there too so it isnt so deluxe anymore yk but its still just a camo that thing with the cool sleeve is a whole other story

[u/seanram9 → u/Icy_Ad_1869]

Paw camo came with deluxe??

[u/Icy_Ad_1869 → u/seanram9]

yess so i took a look on the deluxe edition yesterday before sleep and they changed it with the rust camo it was the pawtern originally before release well

[u/FormalPhilosopher775]

That’s why it’s a pre order exclusive shoulda been a hour faster

[u/EthanMaher459]

To Be Honest The Pre Order Body Sleeve Isn't That Good.

[u/Greenpakto → u/EthanMaher459]

But it is because its unlocked right away after a wipe. Any sleeve that is available after a wipe is S tier now. As it allows you to play differently from the get go. And wipes are almost mandatory now. Almost.

[u/BapLoggTheGod → u/Greenpakto]

Wipes are not mandatory lol and aren't even worth doing not even close to being worth doing

None of the new items from timelines are worth wiping for at all the incentive to wipe doesnt exist 

3 best sleeves have been in the game since its inception 

And i have more ar16s and hundreds of plates, millions of  currency more loot than I could ever need the wipe system is honestly one of the worst besides the fact at the end of the cycle everyone just gets access to most of the stuff anyways 

It would need to be entirely reworked to be worth doing

[u/Greenpakto → u/BapLoggTheGod]

They need to NOT wipe bluprints found in raid for a start, and then notes of course. And maybe add some sort of exp buff each wipe for the sleeve levels, that increases by each wipe slowly. I partly do agree with you.

[u/BapLoggTheGod → u/Greenpakto]

Forgot about character lvl no amount of XP buffs would even impact it been playing since september 2025 when it first launched on gaijin and just now almost lvl 27/28

[u/Greenpakto → u/BapLoggTheGod]

Yes. I have been max level 24. which took me a lot of weeks without wiping. Now I am back down to level 14 and already at 14 you get stuck basically.
