How would you feel about Battle Pass skins releasing in the future? Edit: Epic never specified exclusivity in the Season 1 Shop www.fortnite.com/news/v-1-8-2-patch-notes Use Code: Trickys #ad
if we are being completely honest, the people who still had renegade raider, or really any og skin is most likely a bought account. the people who care for og styles are just kids who sit on tiktok all day and play party royale. as an og myself with aerial and black knight i seriously could care less
@MAKI2K123 Ngl black knight is still a better skin than both renegade raider and aerial assault.. and it’s the rarest battle pass skin in entire Fortnite history.. don’t get the hype for 2 lame skins
Everyone says this. I bought RR in 2017 and it gets boring how many people say you bought your account. It’s pretty much what people default to saying. Thing is at least I will have an exclusive skin when the new variant arrives.
yes it was. the season shop was advertised as exclusive but they never stated that it could or couldnt comeback. i dont have either skins but bringing them back was asinine. it defeats the point of why those skins were cool
@@zeket-o6z yea now its just a bot skin. i had her and raiders revenge now it just means absolutely nothing. i mean hell we also gotta wait for the og style to come out but at this point those will come out too
To be honest this just show how entitled the Fortnite community is. "Oh i have achieved nothing in life all i have is this skin i got in 2019 and i hope nobody ever gets that again" mentality is laughable. Let these new players get whatever skin they want, its just a game and its not that deep. If thats the biggest problem you have in your life, you should seriously stop playing, go outside and experience life.
The only thing that bringing back OG and "exclusive" items hurts it the inflated egos of the kids who flex in party royale. In the middle of a fight, you don't know who is OG and who's not, nor do you care. You're trying to win. And how many OGs do you think quit the game when this happened?... No one. They bitched about it for 5min and queued up.
To me, exclusivity means uniqueness, giving everyone everything is a bit of an entitlement mindset and makes things bland. Exclusivity brings a story to a player, they played in X time/event etc. It's something FUN. And before any low IQ individual states along the lines ''It's just pixels'' yeh tell that to people who make a lot of dough off CSGO skin trading... Video games has become the biggest whale in entertainment. Saying otherwise is such an old out of touch boomer mentality. End of the day, it depends on games/studios and how they go about it when it comes to Cosmetics. I like exclusivity because it brings in some something unique to showcase.
I see them doing the same thing aswell, i wouldnt mind having old passes to come back and people that bought them when the pass dropped can get their own variants and everyone would be happy imo.
@ I wear skins I like, I don’t give a care about what other people care. Wearing skins because they are “OG” or “sweaty” is the dumbest thing ever. It’s a video game, I’m gonna wear whatever skins I like. I’m not buying regrade raider or Ariel assault trooper because I think they are ugly and not worth the money. I really don’t care about Fortnite original skins staying exclusive, that’s fine with me I’m excited they may bring collab skins such as Darth Vader Spiderman, or Dr strange back. Locking them behind a battlepass was dumb to begin with.
“Daddy epic” is wild. Im not sure why you’re defending epic so personaly. They’re clearly being deceptive and intentionally misleading people because of greed.
Epic Games milked the absolute crap out of renegade raider with the remakes, the og pass, and then the real one itself, they know exactly what they’re doing 😂
That's because at the time, they were keeping the renegade raider "exclusive", because the FTC lawsuit happened in 2022, 2 years after the fist renegade raider remix. Also, according to the "lore" (which there pretty much isn't any left) of fortnite, when a person enters the loop, they create a snapshot, then when they leave and reenter the loop, the create another, which is why there are so many Jonseys, and how I think they like to "justify" them making remixes of old skins.
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending.
The season shop was never said to be exclusive.. They said they MAY come back in the future if you read the season shop blog in 2017.. Also they never said old battle passes will not be re-released.. They said about new battle passes, but they said NOTHING about old battle passes, and that's why they ask in surveys about them returning! They can technically do that LEGALLY when their season comes back.
the only thing they said about season 1 and 2 exclusivity is when mako got rereleased is that they "plan to keep all items from Season 1 and 2 exclusive" i believe thats what people are holding onto
Tricky, you are completely right. I think battle passes should be exclusive. It’s also weird how all the people saying they don’t care about them since they’re just skins are also the ones screaming to bring old battle passes back.
Probably cause there's more positive to them returning than negative. I'd get it if they were rare or if you paid hundreds on them but it's not that deep bro people mostly just want the collabs
people are obviously saying "theyre just skins" in the context of those skins allegedly having some sort of value due to their rarity. if people who say "theyre just skins" want old battle passes to come back there is no contradiction, they want them because they like the skin itself, not because those skins is rare
@@dayrozothat's not always the case I saw someone on twitter begging for the mako glider just the other day as soon as Renagade raider returned. He was called out on why he would ask for such a basic thing, and he said "because it's rare" so yeah, it's not really always because they like the design it's the psyche telling you you crave something that you can't have.
The old cosmetics(black knight, omega, reaper, dark voyager) looked a lot cleaner and less cluttered than a lot of the skins were getting now(samurai baymax, 1 Ball, Xmas tree guff, bush ranger)
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending.
i Agree with Omega and Dark Voyager i love using them but Reaper looks weird and ugly nowdays, and you give like alot of bad exemple of skins, you can't say for exemple: Midas wasn't clean or was cluttered or for exemple even Night Rose. And you are comparing Tier 70/100 skins with lower level ones + Baymax it's a collab so doesn't even count it's a bad take for a pass? for sure... but 1-Ball might not be that good it's better than like: Battle Hawk or Squad Leader (which it's so bad for a Tier 80 skin).. Most people compare the peak Ch. 1 skins with the most mid newer skins and forget how many bad skins we had in older passes...
6:40 - I hate this line of thinking. It assumes that people are stupid and disregards their preferences. I think modern skins are mostly ugly. They're too busy. Too cluttered and above all else...TOO WEIRD. There were no collabs in OG passes. No cringe anime skins. No 53 year old rappers. No sassy bubble gum chewers. No ugly jackets with ugly chains. The skins were all super clean and item shop worthy. Hardly any modern BP skins would be worthy of the item shop. Out of the current BP, only Shadow Hope would sell in the item shop. If you put the OG Season 2 pass in the shop, Sparkle Specialist and the Knights would sell like crazy and not due to nostalgia. Because those skins were fire.
so real even in chapter 2 the battle pass skins were not as good as they were in chapter 1 and my first battle pass was ch2s1 even tho i have been playing since season 3 but I just didnt spend money on games back then, If only I knew...
I honestly do think some skins are bad in this pass, but I feel like night rose, daigo, and jade were all pretty decent skins, especially night rose, and they did the bonus reward skins absolute justice if I do say so myself, even the bad ones got a small bit of justice, honestly I think the BP skins this season were not all that terrible
There is no problem with this, only to people that take digital cosmetics seriously as if having a life is impossible nowadays. And no they will definitely earn more money in the long run if they bring back old battle passes. End of discussion.
@@astrobrady2396 Not really.. i had to grind the whole Ch.3 S4 pass because i wanted the Lennox Rose skin with all the styles the season was mid... i wasn't really up to play the game just wanted a break but if i didn't grinded that season it wouldn't come back.. so i forced myself wasn't worth it even tho i don't see playing as a job or something that it's really hard to do, was just boring.. knowing it will return doesn't make me feel: Oh i need to grind even tho the season it's so bad so i can get this specific item.. which makes me have more fun and play when i want to.
Honestly, as someone thats been playing since season 3, I'd be fine with old passes returning. At the end of the day, they're digital cosmetics that'll mean nothing if this game ever shuts down. If people really want these cosmetics, let them. I rarely use most OG cosmetics because they're kinda mid and I've had them for more than half a decade. Personally, I've already got Raider's Revenge from the shop the other day because i thought that pickaxe was cool back when i started playing and was sad that i missed out on it so i bought it to make my inner kid a little bit happier.
The pickaxe is the best thing about the shop. The glider is ass, and if you already have the OG pass they have a similar glider to go with his set so it's silly to me
Dude how about you do some research for once ? Fortnite literally said they will bring back older battle pass skins. But here is the catch for people who don’t read, they will only bring back chapter 5 season 3 battle pass skins and newer. They won’t be going back to sell older battle pass skins cuz yall were over here not paying attention to the game… the only reason they brought back renegade raider was to make up lossed money from the FDC and to make all the kids crying about renegade raider so damn much. The kids were the ones hyping up the skin so much and glazing over it.
@@kevinanton6797 I never said they would come back???? I'm well aware that all battle pass cosmetics post Ch5 S4 will come back and that old ones will be exclusive. I was just giving my opinion on this discussion because I felt like it. Sorry that upset you 👍
One thing that was not mentioned in the video, but I feel like should’ve been is remakes. Epic games have made tons of money off of remake like the blaze skin only because they look similar to OG skins. Think of all the peely clones and how much they’ve probably made of that. If they were to just re-release peeling nobody would buy the other versions.
Exclusivity. People like having exclusivity. It’s a valid reason/justification. Idk why you think it’s not. I am a free to play player and don’t even play that often - like once every year - so I could really care less either way, but exclusivity is absolutely a valid justification
@@dylanbowes427this proves my point that people only care about rarity and not actually the skins. Man what happened to just buying a skin you liked and that be the end of it?
When it comes to releasing old Battle pass skins. Honestly jt should just be the collab cosmetics that should be released if we're being honest. The amount of IPs locked behind the Battle passes are insane, Star Wars with Vader and Mando, Lara Croft, Predator, Indiana Jones, A lot of iconic Marvel Characters, Superman, Raven from DC, Aquaman, the list goes on.
Remember guys and girls, I remember seeing a post from Fortnite 8 months ago and it said that renegade raider will be coming back. So basically they only brought it back to please the new players, it wasn’t about being “broke” they make 300 million a month on average from all sales… they could easily pay off a 150 million lawsuit in half a month. Not to mention they have money saved for such occasions. Fortnite alone makes over 3 billion dollars a year and that’s not even including epic games …
The season shop was actually never exclusive and it wasn't a battle pass. It was the very 1st Item Shop and Epic Games made a blog post in 2017 saying that Renegade Raider will come back at a later date. It also said these items will come back in the future. Get em when you can and then the blog post was instantly taken down.
Fortnite is not doing this cause of the FTC btw. They paid that literally back in 2022 when it was said and done, things just take time to process. Either way, exclusivity is just dumb, it's Epic's own fault for encouraging and not thinking in the future anyway, and while I do think it's good they're backpedaling now, the damage has already been done.
IDGAF what anyone says Battle Pass Skins should be EXCLUSIVE skins, every other games Battle Pass are exclusive. People disagree are either Epic Games Stans, Trend Followers, TikTokers or people who don't simply grind. But if it's a item shop then I honestly don't care if any item shop skins comeback
*Halo Infinite, Overwatch, Multiversus, CoD, CS and even Rocket League back them joined the chat and brought non-exclusive passes* I disagree and don't come with "oh ur just a new gen" or that kinda of crap, i have S3, S4, S5 and other old passes and newer ones, but if they come back it's not a loss to me.. i'm not a cry baby who takes playing a game that i like or as you say "grinding" as a job...
@@cookeddonut0001 i'm not crying i have all the passes i want or care about in my main and in my alt, it just sucks that not everyone can have what they want, but wait till February and them we can see what happen.. you are just that mad with the idea of skins coming back because you don't have any IRL achievements (and if you do, still caring about those licenses to USE not even own an Virtual skin that will be gone if Fortnite get shut down like it's something that matter even more ridiculous).
No they brought the skins back and are working at eliminating exclusivity to combat account selling, my personal opinion though I think fortnite battle pass skins should not come back but collab skins that were in old battle passes should
I totally agree with when you said people bought it not because it looks good but it is rare. I bought it when it re released because i genially thought it is a cool looking skin, i don't care about the rarity of it.
Releasing BP skins but individually would be a good trade off. Priced at their rarities. Omega being 2k so on so on. But the alt styles should be included and should be given to the players who had the original skin but didn’t unlock in time for free. Alt colors are the best part of the older BP skins so it would be nice for everyone to have them.
Ngl I hope they re release the OG soundtrack for your lobby bc I missed the opportunity back in the day and I just wanna be able to hear that soundtrack when I boot up the game again. (I played Save the World Before there was a Battle Royale btw)
I’m honest and I’ll say it right out that I enjoy exclusively in the game. It’s like collecting rare pokemon cards, I just want to collect it and feel like I have something in the game that’s rare and maybe even unobtainable now. If they also start bringing back old c1 bps, there’s just no point
I Could agree but i can't since makes no sense rarity or exclusivity with no 0 obtainability nowdays, the exemple of Pokemon cards, if you want every single of them you can get every single of them (even tho gonna cost alot) if you wanna a car with only 100 produced units you can buy from someone who bought one of those originally, even in games like CS Dragon Lore Souvenirs are still rare and exclusive but you can buy them alone without buying a whole account, Fortnite has nothing like that only a Account Market that it's shady and scummy.
im mad I didnt get save the world founder pack back in the day because we didnt care for it but getting v bucks i think daily is wild!! So annoying man smh
Yall people get upset yall need to understand some people love collecting and exclusivity its cool it wasnt really exclusive but its nice to have somthing rare
Even if old battle passes do return, their gonna give og styles to people who bought them originally, which is fine by me because I’m gonna look forward to catalyst colours on my drift skin 😍
It should only be sold only when the season it was originally sold in is active. That way it can still be somewhat rare. And if they bring the season back they will make a crap ton of money like they're doing now.
IMO, I think it would be cool if they re released the base styles of ogs (i.e: Omega with the default lights or any battle pass skin except the super styles). This is coming from someone who started playing in C1S4 and yes I did buy many of the OG battle passes but I never finished any of or just flat out never bought them because I was a dumb 9/10 year old. This has caused me to miss out on many of mine favorite skins like Catalyst from season X specifically, or Peely, or Drift. Basically, I don't mind old skins coming back, I just want the OGs to get a special style for the skin like epic is doing with Renegade Raider to make part of the skin still exclusive and rare.
Season shop was never stated to be exclusive by epic. I think that people are confusing the idea of a season shop with the idea of a battlepass, which is exclusive, as stated by epic
As an OG myself who ownes Renegade raider. Black knight and many more I don't care if they come back maybe I'm different I enjoying seeing people happy to enjoy these skins that I most likely won't run again after a while. Honestly just happy to see people enjoying these skins
It’s for sure among them for the time being, but Galaxy Skin is considered the rarest. Will be interesting to see if they rerelease those! Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
I dreamed about having the OG Renegade, i bought every reskin because i like the skin so much, and i am so happy that i finally have it. But sadly, the comunity isn't, and I hope epic makes the money to continue, i honestly dont want fortnite to end anytime soon. I have so much a blast, getting home from work and just playing and having my skins and all
It won't, this guy just likes yapping that "fortnite is making huge mistakes" because that's the only thing that keeps his channel alive. Fortnite consistently has 4-5 million active players a day, generating them tens of hundreds of billions per year in revenue.
😂😂😂 Bro, me “yapping” about issues in the game isn’t what keeps my channel alive. I personally love the game, but the majority of the OG audience takes issue with its release. I focus on that because it’s what’s relevant. 👊
Agree 100% The old skins aren't particularly good looking compared to newer ones, especially collabs. Theyre cool because of the exclusivity and rarity. Seven years grinding every battlepass to have a rare digital collection and bragging rights kept me playing and buying passes when it got boring. Its not the end of the world or anything but i dont really feel the need to buy passes or put in the grind anymore going forward. Ill still play the game, just on a much more casual level/less, and probably wont spend anything anymore. Im a founder and i play a match of stw everyday for the free vbucks. If it wasnt for the vbucks id never play stw. Its boring as hell. Now i probably wont even bother with that anymore either since theres no point in buying bp and skins and whatnot for the "collection." I literally wear the same couple skins all the time. I just enjoyed the grind and building that collection. The game is usually only fun for the first week or two of a season and gets stale quickly, but the grind kept me going. Im sure im not the only one. The game will go on with or without me. My "collection" never had any real world value, but it had a sort of sentimental value to me that is completely devalued now.
Just want Peely tbh. I think if the skins are good people will buy them. I personally am buying these cosmetics because of what they are, history. These skins represent a part of the game (and community) that is gone now and won’t come back (the map coming back is not the same as the game was when it came out). If these skins didn’t hold the history of being some of the first skins and being the precursor to the Battle Pass, then I don’t think anyone would care. It’s the same reason why I ware skins because of their storyline importance, it’s because of what they represent.
Fortnite needs to just make all battlepasses permanent. It's the most consumer friendly way to do it, it keeps people on to grind more to catch up, and it should just be the standard for all games now. Halo did ONE good thing and started that train, Helldivers, and Marvel Rivals are two huge games that also share that and it really should just be the standard now. Fuck FOMO
As a season 1 fortnite player, I wouldn’t mind battle passes returning only for those who played during that original season. Then perhaps a remixed battle pass for everyone else. I think releasing these cosmetics to everyone openly really hurts the charm of these old skins and is disrespectful to those who supported and played the game from the beginning. An exception to this in my opinion, is collab skins in passes like during chapter 2. Those should return.
i mean there 2 upsides to this 1: people no longer will need to buy accounts 2: FOMO (fear of missing out) is a scummy buisness tactic that needs to stop
I personally don't care for renegade raider, but I think Fortnite had hope that they would make back the sales releasing the most "wanted skins" only problem is so little of the player base wants them, it was just cool to see the skin for the most part, similar to ghoul or skull back then, I think Fortnite could go back on this somewhat since the profit just doesn't seem to be there, back then party royale renegade was just about all you see, so releasing it now weirdly doesn't feel any different, just my thoughts on it though.
I bought both of the OG skins. I love Aerial Assault Trooper, but I don't like Renegade Raider much. They're both good value for 1200 VB to me, but I don't think they're that amazing. I definitely don't think people should be complaining that their OG stuff got released. Especially when you consider that a sizeable chunk of the accounts with those skins were probably resold at some point. Anything that deters people from buying / selling accounts is good imo.
I want to agree, but no one knew or even knows when or if skins are returning so how would this impact sales any differently? Even for those saying "WhAT'S ThE POiNt oF BUyInG BaTTlE PasSEs NOw", there's still a huge incentive to purchase them. You are guaranteed 5+ skins, guaranteed vbucks back, emotes, etc & you get them a year and a half before anyone who doesn't grind out the pass. Even though they will return eventually, you don't know when so if you want the skins at that point in time you have to get that battlepass.
I always just saw the battle pass as an economical way to get a bunch of skins for 10$. I dont think everybody looks at fortnite purely through a lens of exclusivity and rarity. Especially since selling accounts is against the terms of service and can result in bans. Maybe just enjoy a 10 pack of cool skins for 10$.
Yall are getting exclusive styles so ogs will still have rare versions. Its so both sides can be happy. I am new and want new and old skins. I will buy old skins if it means i get the other old skins. Heck they made a survey with most people saying yes. Also I still have to grind for it as u need xp for it
In my opinion Epic is doing this for longevity. If we thought Renegade Raider was rare 7 years after it came out, where black markets accounts were being sold for upwards of 1000 dollars, just imagine how much rarer and more expensive Renegade Raider would be come say 20, 30 years after it released. Epic doesn’t want skins become nfts, and the longer a skin goes without releasing the farther into obscurity it goes, and continuing that just wouldn’t be smart on Epic’s part.
personally im glad raiders revenge came back out. i remember when it first came out but i was younger and couldn't afford the vbucks for it, now that im older i get to make younger me happy again
Who ever said fortnite releasing og skin is a problem let me just tell you they made around $1,000,000 in sales just in 1 week of renegade raider in the shop lol😂 I got $1,000 ready to waste for only og skins epic games keep releasing these skin and I’ll keep releasing my money 😝
No one bought the renegade raider because they “thought it would be og”. They didn’t even know the future of the game at that point. They bought it because the game just came out and they were enjoying it so they wanted to get a cool skin.
Okay I think I may have a great idea: In Overwatch you can work on passed battle passes anytime you want if I’m not mistaken. Now what if Fortnite aloud us to do the same, however there would be a catch. The original owners get an exclusive bonus appearance to their skins. That way you prevent players frustration and you still have the exclusivity. For example a character I missed out on was Black Knight, cause I thought the game was going to die real quick (boy was I wrong). Well hypothetically if you had black night he would get a gold variant to his skin or a blue color or the option to customize his color if you had him from that season. And let’s say I want the skin just as is, well I can buy the battle pass with the challenges for that season and can grind for him. But I cannot get the extra variant for him. I think that would allow for exclusivity and this would allow us to enjoy and grind for battle pass skins while not making anyone mad
It's not exactly like that but it's close, you can get mythic prisms in the new battle passes to get the old battle passes mythic skins but it doesn't work like that for the whole battle pass in overwatch but marvel rivals will have a feature where if you get the battle pass you will always be able to work on that battle pass even if the season is over
@LalliLallasson I was personally trying to remember what my girlfriend told me but thank you for correcting me. I just think that it really would be a cool idea and let us not forget that they would definitely still profit and make their money back on the investments
i 100% agree it has to be some exclusiveness because if u work for something u can show u worked for it and can we stop with ppl only wear stuff cause its og or rare some ppl just like things and like i have stuff that cant come back and like u said if they get rid of all exclusively i wont be buying anything else cause its gonna come back to the shop anyways?and i wanna enjoy my stuff the same way ppl asking for it come back but the difference ppl dont care because they dont have it LMAO
Isn’t the season shop different than the battle pass? I remember back in seasons 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on that epic said battle pass items will not be brought back and are gone forever after the season. Even if they change their tos aren’t they still legally binded by their original promises and therefore cannot re-release battle passes and skins?
As an OG player, I would not be mad about if they released old battle passes.. like we done all that stuff like a refunds, allegations against unauthorized purchases, they lost so much and I would be mad the same way...
the logic still applies, I'm like you I bought renegade for multiple reasons, i think it looks nice and it has some history to it. if they bring back black knight and reaper itll be the same thing, there will be plenty of people who want it because it looks nice. Just like a bmw or a mercedez, there are plenty of people who just like how they look. If an expensive bmw were to just drop in value by a ton i'd still want one because they look nice and they're more worth the constant engine trouble if it costs less. and the point of grinding the battle pass for the skins instead of waiting for them to come back to the shop a year and a half later? simple, so i dont have to wait a year and a half to have the skin i want to use.
I’m a OG renegade raider and black knight imma be honest I haven’t played in 3 years I’m in the army and don’t have time I recently came back and started playing consistently a month ago because I heard OG Fortnite was coming back I’m not mad they released my skin but they could have at least gave us our OG variant before they got released again
I’ve been playing Fortnite since early September 2017 and you best believe I bought the renegade raider asap when it rereleased. Has always been my favorite skin and glad I can own it
IMO what went wrong with exclusive BPs is collabs like spider man ppl love these and to put them behind a time limit isn’t they way to go. My second point is I’m cool with season shop items returning let the new gen and OGs who missed it enjoy it and give me a style for getting it back then Edit:I agree removing BPs exclusivity might make you less interested to buy and grind the best way imo is if you buy a BP you can finish it anytime but you can only buy it in its season
the skins were never exclusive and that’s a fact, but let’s be real they only brought them back because they lost all of that money from the lawsuit, if the lawsuit never happened that skin wouldn’t have returned most likely
The thing about your car analogy is with a car in real life yea a rare car holds value and you can sell it to someone for lots of money. However with fortnite skins you can't. That's against terms of service to sell skins(accounts) to another person. So yea it becomes rare but there no inherit gain to the person that owns it other than flexing their ego that it's rare. Trust me i get it tho i have tons of rare and old skins on my account so I kinda feel mixed about all this.
I already own black knight and John wick but I want them to re release so epic can give me a reason to use the skins again, assuming they give them OG edit styles.
Okay i don't know who came up with the idea that renegade and Arial were exclusive. Show me a blog post or something THAT SPECIFICALLY says that these items are exclusive. The blog post I read says and I quote "These items may or may not return at a later date, get them while you can" why is this so hard for people to get a grip on. Its in fine print on black on white yes it sucks that now its a bot skin but at the end of the day its just a skin. If the game ever shut down then everything one owned on there account, gone. Its pixels not actually real. Sorry to burst y'alls bubble its not that serious.
Might ultimately be a good thing tho. If everyone has every skin then so what, yeah it won’t be as rare but at that point people will start to just wear the skins they actually like and not just cuz it was rare at some point. Would be a little sad but Fortnite in general changes so I think it’d be okay
Are you stupid? He knows. Its just that epic and been milking the crap out of renegade raider of the past couple years as if it was never going to come back and that it was exclusive and now they're just releasing it out of nowhere. The fact that this is the first release of the skin in 7 YEARS is enough to prove that it WAS exclusive. (now its not though because epic is a greedy money hog)
I would REALLY love to get my hands on the omega skin. Although im og, I really dont mind og skins coming back. At the end of the day, its just a digital skin, nothing more. Well, thats just my opinion.
Well I only started in Chapter 1 Season 4 because I didn't really have the money for a console or PC before. I wanted to have Renegade Raider and Arial Assault Trooper, not because they are rare but because I just really like both of them, they doesn't look super cool but they aren't bad either. So I think it's good that Epic brought the skins back.
And also the reason why they releasing those type of skins due to the factors they want other players to stop purchasing accounts. That’s the second reason why they doing that people need to do their research.
Exactly less sales and less playtime in the long run. I havent seen that much renegade raiders at all while playing. Goes to show you that you shouldnt cater to a vocal minority of 5 yr olds that dont even buy skins. If we can give epic the same backlash they got with the Halo skin style then they will revert
I played in ch 1 season 3 up until now and seeing these skins return just feels wrong. Yeah they’re technically item shop skins and could’ve returned at any time but seeing the most rare sought after cosmetics in this game come back to the item shop again feels really weird and I personally would’ve been fine having them not return. ( never owned the skins btw I started in ch s3)
Item shop cosmetics coming back okay yeah makes sense but battle pass skins we had to not only buy but grind for is just absurd it’s not even ab the skin anymore at that point it’s about the time and dedication it took to get the skin if you call me childish for saying this you ARE the child
Told to some of my fellow gatekeepers back then not to gatekeep "shop" skins because its not even stated that they were exclusive in the first place. Also this is just nothing compared to epic's previous changes.
Respectively this whole situation is foolish if you dont see yourself actually using the cosmetics you purchase why buy them. If you invest money in cosmetics not because you like them but because you hope new people cant buy those items in the future then thats a personal & petty issue
i came around during C1S3 and i could care less about getting those skins. the real rare items though are the ones locked behind battlepasses and collab offers with Samsung.
A lot of people on both sides are using the “it’s just pixels” argument. But nobody can use it… Because EVERYONE cares about the special pixels!!! **commence mwahahahaha emote for extra awesomeness**
How would you feel about Battle Pass skins releasing in the future?
Edit: Epic never specified exclusivity in the Season 1 Shop www.fortnite.com/news/v-1-8-2-patch-notes

@@TrickyFN I would feel ok with it but giving OG styles for the skins would be great
its a good thing, they’re just skins
Wouldn’t mind one but it’s just skins at the end of the day
i would be fine with it but i think the og users should get og styles
As a non og player(I started in chapter 2) I think only collab skins should come back from battle passes.
if we are being completely honest, the people who still had renegade raider, or really any og skin is most likely a bought account. the people who care for og styles are just kids who sit on tiktok all day and play party royale. as an og myself with aerial and black knight i seriously could care less
You have my respect.
Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback, bro! 👊
lemme buy your acc
@MAKI2K123 Ngl black knight is still a better skin than both renegade raider and aerial assault.. and it’s the rarest battle pass skin in entire Fortnite history.. don’t get the hype for 2 lame skins
Everyone says this. I bought RR in 2017 and it gets boring how many people say you bought your account. It’s pretty much what people default to saying. Thing is at least I will have an exclusive skin when the new variant arrives.
The season shop was never exclusive bro 😭 it was even stated in the 2017 blog post that those skins could comeback after the season ended
its is.. tho epic isn't hurting for money.. they have a network of 68 billion dollars.. possibly more nowadays
Common misconception. Blog post refers to Mako glider and Battle Bus icon.
yes it was. the season shop was advertised as exclusive but they never stated that it could or couldnt comeback. i dont have either skins but bringing them back was asinine. it defeats the point of why those skins were cool
bruh most of you who say it's not exclusive, used to say "Renegade raider is OG it will never comeback!" 🤓
@@zeket-o6z yea now its just a bot skin. i had her and raiders revenge now it just means absolutely nothing. i mean hell we also gotta wait for the og style to come out but at this point those will come out too
To be honest this just show how entitled the Fortnite community is. "Oh i have achieved nothing in life all i have is this skin i got in 2019 and i hope nobody ever gets that again" mentality is laughable. Let these new players get whatever skin they want, its just a game and its not that deep. If thats the biggest problem you have in your life, you should seriously stop playing, go outside and experience life.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
def new player lmfaooo
bro has fortnite BK as pfp and pretends to not care abt rare skins this is the funniest thing i saw all day
The only thing that bringing back OG and "exclusive" items hurts it the inflated egos of the kids who flex in party royale.
In the middle of a fight, you don't know who is OG and who's not, nor do you care. You're trying to win.
And how many OGs do you think quit the game when this happened?... No one. They bitched about it for 5min and queued up.
spot on exactly what I was thinking it really is not that deep honestly its just a skin
@danielcedillo4333 💯
To me, exclusivity means uniqueness, giving everyone everything is a bit of an entitlement mindset and makes things bland.
Exclusivity brings a story to a player, they played in X time/event etc. It's something FUN.
And before any low IQ individual states along the lines ''It's just pixels'' yeh tell that to people who make a lot of dough off CSGO skin trading... Video games has become the biggest whale in entertainment. Saying otherwise is such an old out of touch boomer mentality.
End of the day, it depends on games/studios and how they go about it when it comes to Cosmetics. I like exclusivity because it brings in some something unique to showcase.
Thank you all for watching and giving great feedback! 👊
Nah actually bro we stopped playing for a good while until we seen something that made us come back
Epic is simply moving away form exclusivity so I do see old battle pass skins coming back
I see them doing the same thing aswell, i wouldnt mind having old passes to come back and people that bought them when the pass dropped can get their own variants and everyone would be happy imo.
@ probably they are
@@LostLinguineOng I want sparkle specialist so bad
In a future when exclusivity is outlawed because unless they can find some frigging loop hole then they cannot bring old battle passes back.

@Shejahwgsvxgeasy to say that when you have no skins or have skins nobody cares about😂
@ I wear skins I like, I don’t give a care about what other people care. Wearing skins because they are “OG” or “sweaty” is the dumbest thing ever. It’s a video game, I’m gonna wear whatever skins I like. I’m not buying regrade raider or Ariel assault trooper because I think they are ugly and not worth the money. I really don’t care about Fortnite original skins staying exclusive, that’s fine with me I’m excited they may bring collab skins such as Darth Vader Spiderman, or Dr strange back. Locking them behind a battlepass was dumb to begin with.
“daddy epic, please dont bring backy my special skins, i thought i was your favourite 🥺” ahh community
Fr like grow up. Grown adults crying people can buy a video game skin that they own.
@Shejahwgsvxg All the more reasons why i play Mind Games, to get under there Skin! It was impossible to hold in my Laughter
“Daddy epic” is wild. Im not sure why you’re defending epic so personaly. They’re clearly being deceptive and intentionally misleading people because of greed.
@@biguzivert youre not the sharpest tool in the shed are you
@ Can you not sense sarcasm? 😭🙏
Epic Games milked the absolute crap out of renegade raider with the remakes, the og pass, and then the real one itself, they know exactly what they’re doing 😂
That's because at the time, they were keeping the renegade raider "exclusive", because the FTC lawsuit happened in 2022, 2 years after the fist renegade raider remix. Also, according to the "lore" (which there pretty much isn't any left) of fortnite, when a person enters the loop, they create a snapshot, then when they leave and reenter the loop, the create another, which is why there are so many Jonseys, and how I think they like to "justify" them making remixes of old skins.
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending.
yep, and also the item shop renegade raiders
The season shop was never said to be exclusive.. They said they MAY come back in the future if you read the season shop blog in 2017.. Also they never said old battle passes will not be re-released.. They said about new battle passes, but they said NOTHING about old battle passes, and that's why they ask in surveys about them returning! They can technically do that LEGALLY when their season comes back.
Correct! Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
the only thing they said about season 1 and 2 exclusivity is when mako got rereleased is that they "plan to keep all items from Season 1 and 2 exclusive" i believe thats what people are holding onto
@6P06 When did they say that? Show me
Tricky, you are completely right. I think battle passes should be exclusive. It’s also weird how all the people saying they don’t care about them since they’re just skins are also the ones screaming to bring old battle passes back.
Ikr
Probably cause there's more positive to them returning than negative. I'd get it if they were rare or if you paid hundreds on them but it's not that deep bro people mostly just want the collabs
people are obviously saying "theyre just skins" in the context of those skins allegedly having some sort of value due to their rarity. if people who say "theyre just skins" want old battle passes to come back there is no contradiction, they want them because they like the skin itself, not because those skins is rare
@@BigBootyLumpyPumper I don’t think the collabs should be exclusive
@@dayrozothat's not always the case I saw someone on twitter begging for the mako glider just the other day as soon as Renagade raider returned. He was called out on why he would ask for such a basic thing, and he said "because it's rare" so yeah, it's not really always because they like the design it's the psyche telling you you crave something that you can't have.
The old cosmetics(black knight, omega, reaper, dark voyager) looked a lot cleaner and less cluttered than a lot of the skins were getting now(samurai baymax, 1 Ball, Xmas tree guff, bush ranger)
Yh
I would pay like 20 for black knight if it came back😭(skyrim is one of my favorite games so that skin really suits my style)
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending.
i Agree with Omega and Dark Voyager i love using them but Reaper looks weird and ugly nowdays, and you give like alot of bad exemple of skins, you can't say for exemple: Midas wasn't clean or was cluttered or for exemple even Night Rose.
And you are comparing Tier 70/100 skins with lower level ones + Baymax it's a collab so doesn't even count it's a bad take for a pass? for sure...
but 1-Ball might not be that good it's better than like: Battle Hawk or Squad Leader (which it's so bad for a Tier 80 skin)..
Most people compare the peak Ch. 1 skins with the most mid newer skins and forget how many bad skins we had in older passes...
@@treek10kthis dude preaching the gospel on a fucking fortnite video you cannot be serious 😂
6:40 - I hate this line of thinking. It assumes that people are stupid and disregards their preferences. I think modern skins are mostly ugly. They're too busy. Too cluttered and above all else...TOO WEIRD.
There were no collabs in OG passes. No cringe anime skins. No 53 year old rappers. No sassy bubble gum chewers. No ugly jackets with ugly chains.
The skins were all super clean and item shop worthy. Hardly any modern BP skins would be worthy of the item shop. Out of the current BP, only Shadow Hope would sell in the item shop.
If you put the OG Season 2 pass in the shop, Sparkle Specialist and the Knights would sell like crazy and not due to nostalgia. Because those skins were fire.
Been saying this since chapter 3 battle pass skins have been on a steep decline they all look corny
Yeah a lot of this skins are cringey
Absolutely right, although I’d rather they release the battle passes in their seasons so we can work through them.
so real even in chapter 2 the battle pass skins were not as good as they were in chapter 1 and my first battle pass was ch2s1 even tho i have been playing since season 3 but I just didnt spend money on games back then, If only I knew...
I honestly do think some skins are bad in this pass, but I feel like night rose, daigo, and jade were all pretty decent skins, especially night rose, and they did the bonus reward skins absolute justice if I do say so myself, even the bad ones got a small bit of justice, honestly I think the BP skins this season were not all that terrible
There is no problem with this, only to people that take digital cosmetics seriously as if having a life is impossible nowadays. And no they will definitely earn more money in the long run if they bring back old battle passes. End of discussion.
Idk It just makes it more fun to grind if it’s not gonna come back
@@astrobrady2396 Not really.. i had to grind the whole Ch.3 S4 pass because i wanted the Lennox Rose skin with all the styles the season was mid... i wasn't really up to play the game just wanted a break but if i didn't grinded that season it wouldn't come back.. so i forced myself wasn't worth it even tho i don't see playing as a job or something that it's really hard to do, was just boring.. knowing it will return doesn't make me feel: Oh i need to grind even tho the season it's so bad so i can get this specific item.. which makes me have more fun and play when i want to.
Honestly, as someone thats been playing since season 3, I'd be fine with old passes returning. At the end of the day, they're digital cosmetics that'll mean nothing if this game ever shuts down. If people really want these cosmetics, let them. I rarely use most OG cosmetics because they're kinda mid and I've had them for more than half a decade. Personally, I've already got Raider's Revenge from the shop the other day because i thought that pickaxe was cool back when i started playing and was sad that i missed out on it so i bought it to make my inner kid a little bit happier.
The pickaxe is the best thing about the shop. The glider is ass, and if you already have the OG pass they have a similar glider to go with his set so it's silly to me
@FlipflopMount222 true, his glider is ass. I might pick up Rene and Aerial Later when I save up enough vbucks from stw and the battlepass.
Dude how about you do some research for once ? Fortnite literally said they will bring back older battle pass skins. But here is the catch for people who don’t read, they will only bring back chapter 5 season 3 battle pass skins and newer. They won’t be going back to sell older battle pass skins cuz yall were over here not paying attention to the game… the only reason they brought back renegade raider was to make up lossed money from the FDC and to make all the kids crying about renegade raider so damn much. The kids were the ones hyping up the skin so much and glazing over it.

One thing that was not mentioned in the video, but I feel like should’ve been is remakes. Epic games have made tons of money off of remake like the blaze skin only because they look similar to OG skins. Think of all the peely clones and how much they’ve probably made of that. If they were to just re-release peeling nobody would buy the other versions.
Yep good point! Thanks for watching and reminding me! 👊
Watching people try to justify how this is bad is hilarious. And they never said they wouldn't release her again. You guys are funny.
Exclusivity. People like having exclusivity. It’s a valid reason/justification. Idk why you think it’s not. I am a free to play player and don’t even play that often - like once every year - so I could really care less either way, but exclusivity is absolutely a valid justification

@@NinTheLost old cars are physical. A skin in a game is not
When it comes to releasing old Battle pass skins. Honestly jt should just be the collab cosmetics that should be released if we're being honest. The amount of IPs locked behind the Battle passes are insane, Star Wars with Vader and Mando, Lara Croft, Predator, Indiana Jones, A lot of iconic Marvel Characters, Superman, Raven from DC, Aquaman, the list goes on.
Remember guys and girls, I remember seeing a post from Fortnite 8 months ago and it said that renegade raider will be coming back. So basically they only brought it back to please the new players, it wasn’t about being “broke” they make 300 million a month on average from all sales… they could easily pay off a 150 million lawsuit in half a month. Not to mention they have money saved for such occasions. Fortnite alone makes over 3 billion dollars a year and that’s not even including epic games …

The season shop was actually never exclusive and it wasn't a battle pass. It was the very 1st Item Shop and Epic Games made a blog post in 2017 saying that Renegade Raider will come back at a later date. It also said these items will come back in the future. Get em when you can and then the blog post was instantly taken down.
Yup. I added a note to the pin! Thanks for watching and sharing feedback, bro! 👊
Fortnite is not doing this cause of the FTC btw. They paid that literally back in 2022 when it was said and done, things just take time to process.
Either way, exclusivity is just dumb, it's Epic's own fault for encouraging and not thinking in the future anyway, and while I do think it's good they're backpedaling now, the damage has already been done.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Doubt the FTC cares about exclusivity when these skins could be resold for more than what the original pass was worth.
IDGAF what anyone says Battle Pass Skins should be EXCLUSIVE skins, every other games Battle Pass are exclusive. People disagree are either Epic Games Stans, Trend Followers, TikTokers or people who don't simply grind. But if it's a item shop then I honestly don't care if any item shop skins comeback
Real, all the people who are saying the old bp skins should return are just salty they never got them
@cookeddonut0001 Exactly 💯
*Halo Infinite, Overwatch, Multiversus, CoD, CS and even Rocket League back them joined the chat and brought non-exclusive passes*
I disagree and don't come with "oh ur just a new gen" or that kinda of crap, i have S3, S4, S5 and other old passes and newer ones, but if they come back it's not a loss to me.. i'm not a cry baby who takes playing a game that i like or as you say "grinding" as a job...

That’s actually an interesting point! Thanks for watching and giving your thoughts, bro! 👊
If that was the case then why give OG styles? They should have never brought back season shop to begin with.
I totally agree with when you said people bought it not because it looks good but it is rare. I bought it when it re released because i genially thought it is a cool looking skin, i don't care about the rarity of it.
Thanks, bro! 👊
Epic states we don't own our accounts, we don't own the skins have
Releasing BP skins but individually would be a good trade off. Priced at their rarities. Omega being 2k so on so on. But the alt styles should be included and should be given to the players who had the original skin but didn’t unlock in time for free. Alt colors are the best part of the older BP skins so it would be nice for everyone to have them.
Ngl I hope they re release the OG soundtrack for your lobby bc I missed the opportunity back in the day and I just wanna be able to hear that soundtrack when I boot up the game again. (I played Save the World Before there was a Battle Royale btw)
🥹 Yeah it was peak, bro! Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback! 👊
I’m honest and I’ll say it right out that I enjoy exclusively in the game. It’s like collecting rare pokemon cards, I just want to collect it and feel like I have something in the game that’s rare and maybe even unobtainable now. If they also start bringing back old c1 bps, there’s just no point
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
I Could agree but i can't since makes no sense rarity or exclusivity with no 0 obtainability nowdays, the exemple of Pokemon cards, if you want every single of them you can get every single of them (even tho gonna cost alot) if you wanna a car with only 100 produced units you can buy from someone who bought one of those originally, even in games like CS Dragon Lore Souvenirs are still rare and exclusive but you can buy them alone without buying a whole account, Fortnite has nothing like that only a Account Market that it's shady and scummy.
im mad I didnt get save the world founder pack back in the day because we didnt care for it but getting v bucks i think daily is wild!! So annoying man smh
Yall people get upset yall need to understand some people love collecting and exclusivity its cool it wasnt really exclusive but its nice to have somthing rare
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Even if old battle passes do return, their gonna give og styles to people who bought them originally, which is fine by me because I’m gonna look forward to catalyst colours on my drift skin 😍
Hey if it means u can be happy and I can be happy that's fine by me
EVERYONE WILL BE HAPPY 👊
It should only be sold only when the season it was originally sold in is active. That way it can still be somewhat rare. And if they bring the season back they will make a crap ton of money like they're doing now.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Lied to the players and ruined a good skin. Thanks epic.
Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
IMO, I think it would be cool if they re released the base styles of ogs (i.e: Omega with the default lights or any battle pass skin except the super styles). This is coming from someone who started playing in C1S4 and yes I did buy many of the OG battle passes but I never finished any of or just flat out never bought them because I was a dumb 9/10 year old. This has caused me to miss out on many of mine favorite skins like Catalyst from season X specifically, or Peely, or Drift. Basically, I don't mind old skins coming back, I just want the OGs to get a special style for the skin like epic is doing with Renegade Raider to make part of the skin still exclusive and rare.
Yup! Nice perspective! Thanks for watching and commenting, bro! 👊
Season shop was never stated to be exclusive by epic. I think that people are confusing the idea of a season shop with the idea of a battlepass, which is exclusive, as stated by epic
Thanks for watching and commenting, bro! 👊
But yet they literally called it an exclusive shop on the first fortnightmares event
and then went back at a later event stating that they could come back at any time, they just conveniently never did
As an OG myself who ownes Renegade raider. Black knight and many more I don't care if they come back maybe I'm different I enjoying seeing people happy to enjoy these skins that I most likely won't run again after a while. Honestly just happy to see people enjoying these skins
🙏 That’s a cool take, bro. I like your style! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! 👊
This is good for the people who have the black knight though it means the black knight will most likely remain the rarest skin 🤔 right?
It’s for sure among them for the time being, but Galaxy Skin is considered the rarest. Will be interesting to see if they rerelease those! Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
I dreamed about having the OG Renegade, i bought every reskin because i like the skin so much, and i am so happy that i finally have it. But sadly, the comunity isn't, and I hope epic makes the money to continue, i honestly dont want fortnite to end anytime soon. I have so much a blast, getting home from work and just playing and having my skins and all
It won't, this guy just likes yapping that "fortnite is making huge mistakes" because that's the only thing that keeps his channel alive. Fortnite consistently has 4-5 million active players a day, generating them tens of hundreds of billions per year in revenue.
Fortnite isn’t going anywhere and of course I wouldn’t want it to! I love this game and have for years! 👊
😂😂😂 Bro, me “yapping” about issues in the game isn’t what keeps my channel alive. I personally love the game, but the majority of the OG audience takes issue with its release. I focus on that because it’s what’s relevant. 👊
Agree 100% The old skins aren't particularly good looking compared to newer ones, especially collabs. Theyre cool because of the exclusivity and rarity. Seven years grinding every battlepass to have a rare digital collection and bragging rights kept me playing and buying passes when it got boring. Its not the end of the world or anything but i dont really feel the need to buy passes or put in the grind anymore going forward. Ill still play the game, just on a much more casual level/less, and probably wont spend anything anymore. Im a founder and i play a match of stw everyday for the free vbucks. If it wasnt for the vbucks id never play stw. Its boring as hell. Now i probably wont even bother with that anymore either since theres no point in buying bp and skins and whatnot for the "collection." I literally wear the same couple skins all the time. I just enjoyed the grind and building that collection. The game is usually only fun for the first week or two of a season and gets stale quickly, but the grind kept me going. Im sure im not the only one. The game will go on with or without me. My "collection" never had any real world value, but it had a sort of sentimental value to me that is completely devalued now.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Just want Peely tbh. I think if the skins are good people will buy them. I personally am buying these cosmetics because of what they are, history. These skins represent a part of the game (and community) that is gone now and won’t come back (the map coming back is not the same as the game was when it came out). If these skins didn’t hold the history of being some of the first skins and being the precursor to the Battle Pass, then I don’t think anyone would care. It’s the same reason why I ware skins because of their storyline importance, it’s because of what they represent.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Fortnite needs to just make all battlepasses permanent. It's the most consumer friendly way to do it, it keeps people on to grind more to catch up, and it should just be the standard for all games now. Halo did ONE good thing and started that train, Helldivers, and Marvel Rivals are two huge games that also share that and it really should just be the standard now. Fuck FOMO
Will be interesting to see how they move forward for sure! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
man you grew so fast i cant even keep up, keep making great content and keep grinding been here since 200 subs
Thanks for the support, bro! 👊
As a season 1 fortnite player, I wouldn’t mind battle passes returning only for those who played during that original season. Then perhaps a remixed battle pass for everyone else. I think releasing these cosmetics to everyone openly really hurts the charm of these old skins and is disrespectful to those who supported and played the game from the beginning. An exception to this in my opinion, is collab skins in passes like during chapter 2. Those should return.
Thanks for this, bro! 👊

I personally don't care for renegade raider, but I think Fortnite had hope that they would make back the sales releasing the most "wanted skins" only problem is so little of the player base wants them, it was just cool to see the skin for the most part, similar to ghoul or skull back then, I think Fortnite could go back on this somewhat since the profit just doesn't seem to be there, back then party royale renegade was just about all you see, so releasing it now weirdly doesn't feel any different, just my thoughts on it though.

For anyone who's worried about BP skins a person from FN told me that they won't do it. They would give out Skins that are in the shop out of X time
Bro has the hookup! Thanks for watching and sharing your insight! 👊
I bought both of the OG skins. I love Aerial Assault Trooper, but I don't like Renegade Raider much. They're both good value for 1200 VB to me, but I don't think they're that amazing.
I definitely don't think people should be complaining that their OG stuff got released. Especially when you consider that a sizeable chunk of the accounts with those skins were probably resold at some point. Anything that deters people from buying / selling accounts is good imo.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
I want to agree, but no one knew or even knows when or if skins are returning so how would this impact sales any differently? Even for those saying "WhAT'S ThE POiNt oF BUyInG BaTTlE PasSEs NOw", there's still a huge incentive to purchase them. You are guaranteed 5+ skins, guaranteed vbucks back, emotes, etc & you get them a year and a half before anyone who doesn't grind out the pass. Even though they will return eventually, you don't know when so if you want the skins at that point in time you have to get that battlepass.
Thanks for watching and commenting, bro! 👊
I always just saw the battle pass as an economical way to get a bunch of skins for 10$. I dont think everybody looks at fortnite purely through a lens of exclusivity and rarity. Especially since selling accounts is against the terms of service and can result in bans. Maybe just enjoy a 10 pack of cool skins for 10$.
Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback, bro! 👊
Yall are getting exclusive styles so ogs will still have rare versions. Its so both sides can be happy. I am new and want new and old skins.

@TrickyFN your welcome and Thank u for the response friend✋️👍
I’m surprised Fortnite aren’t selling the og default skins as a skin in the item shop…
who's gonna tell him...
@demmygxd they are??
In my opinion Epic is doing this for longevity. If we thought Renegade Raider was rare 7 years after it came out, where black markets accounts were being sold for upwards of 1000 dollars, just imagine how much rarer and more expensive Renegade Raider would be come say 20, 30 years after it released. Epic doesn’t want skins become nfts, and the longer a skin goes without releasing the farther into obscurity it goes, and continuing that just wouldn’t be smart on Epic’s part.

personally im glad raiders revenge came back out. i remember when it first came out but i was younger and couldn't afford the vbucks for it, now that im older i get to make younger me happy again
🥹 that’s cool, bro! 👊
Who ever said fortnite releasing og skin is a problem let me just tell you they made around $1,000,000 in sales just in 1 week of renegade raider in the shop lol😂 I got $1,000 ready to waste for only og skins epic games keep releasing these skin and I’ll keep releasing my money 😝
Yeah I’ve donated to the cause, as well lol Merry Christmas, bro and thanks for watching! 👊
No one bought the renegade raider because they “thought it would be og”. They didn’t even know the future of the game at that point. They bought it because the game just came out and they were enjoying it so they wanted to get a cool skin.
Thanks for watching and commenting, bro! 👊
"now everyone and their mother is wearing renegade raider"
me wearing it as we speak lol
I haven’t even unlocked aerial assault trooper yet, how are y’all unlocking it so fast.?
@benmarley3086 xp maps, xp glitches or just grinding.
😂😭
Okay I think I may have a great idea:
In Overwatch you can work on passed battle passes anytime you want if I’m not mistaken.
Now what if Fortnite aloud us to do the same, however there would be a catch. The original owners get an exclusive bonus appearance to their skins. That way you prevent players frustration and you still have the exclusivity. For example a character I missed out on was Black Knight, cause I thought the game was going to die real quick (boy was I wrong). Well hypothetically if you had black night he would get a gold variant to his skin or a blue color or the option to customize his color if you had him from that season. And let’s say I want the skin just as is, well I can buy the battle pass with the challenges for that season and can grind for him. But I cannot get the extra variant for him. I think that would allow for exclusivity and this would allow us to enjoy and grind for battle pass skins while not making anyone mad
It's not exactly like that but it's close, you can get mythic prisms in the new battle passes to get the old battle passes mythic skins but it doesn't work like that for the whole battle pass in overwatch but marvel rivals will have a feature where if you get the battle pass you will always be able to work on that battle pass even if the season is over
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
@LalliLallasson I was personally trying to remember what my girlfriend told me but thank you for correcting me. I just think that it really would be a cool idea and let us not forget that they would definitely still profit and make their money back on the investments
@@Mi1k_Man Yeah I agree with that!
i 100% agree it has to be some exclusiveness because if u work for something u can show u worked for it and can we stop with ppl only wear stuff cause its og or rare some ppl just like things and like i have stuff that cant come back and like u said if they get rid of all exclusively i wont be buying anything else cause its gonna come back to the shop anyways?and i wanna enjoy my stuff the same way ppl asking for it come back but the difference ppl dont care because they dont have it LMAO
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Exclusivity is dead, Epic shareholders don’t want it. Renegade Raider is not 1200 skin, is 800 as much… Someday people will notice.
Yup! Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Isn’t the season shop different than the battle pass? I remember back in seasons 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on that epic said battle pass items will not be brought back and are gone forever after the season. Even if they change their tos aren’t they still legally binded by their original promises and therefore cannot re-release battle passes and skins?
Yep! That’s exactly right! Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
As an OG player, I would not be mad about if they released old battle passes.. like we done all that stuff like a refunds, allegations against unauthorized purchases, they lost so much and I would be mad the same way...
And I'm not saying that everyone did any of these stuff, but a lot of players did it.
i just wanted renegade as it would go good with some combos i would wear, idc about rarity
i just want to wear stuff i like, i hate exclusivity
im fine if they bring back old stuff just as long as the previous owners get a style for them
Yeah I agree with you. It’s a fair compromise that should keep everyone happy! Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
the logic still applies, I'm like you I bought renegade for multiple reasons, i think it looks nice and it has some history to it. if they bring back black knight and reaper itll be the same thing, there will be plenty of people who want it because it looks nice. Just like a bmw or a mercedez, there are plenty of people who just like how they look. If an expensive bmw were to just drop in value by a ton i'd still want one because they look nice and they're more worth the constant engine trouble if it costs less. and the point of grinding the battle pass for the skins instead of waiting for them to come back to the shop a year and a half later? simple, so i dont have to wait a year and a half to have the skin i want to use.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
I’m a OG renegade raider and black knight imma be honest I haven’t played in 3 years I’m in the army and don’t have time I recently came back and started playing consistently a month ago because I heard OG Fortnite was coming back I’m not mad they released my skin but they could have at least gave us our OG variant before they got released again
I’ve been playing Fortnite since early September 2017 and you best believe I bought the renegade raider asap when it rereleased. Has always been my favorite skin and glad I can own it
IMO what went wrong with exclusive BPs is collabs like spider man ppl love these and to put them behind a time limit isn’t they way to go. My second point is I’m cool with season shop items returning let the new gen and OGs who missed it enjoy it and give me a style for getting it back then
Edit:I agree removing BPs exclusivity might make you less interested to buy and grind the best way imo is if you buy a BP you can finish it anytime but you can only buy it in its season
Yeah I agree with you on both of those points, bro! Thanks for watching! 👊
the skins were never exclusive and that’s a fact, but let’s be real they only brought them back because they lost all of that money from the lawsuit, if the lawsuit never happened that skin wouldn’t have returned most likely
Most likely correct! Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback, bro! 👊
The thing about your car analogy is with a car in real life yea a rare car holds value and you can sell it to someone for lots of money. However with fortnite skins you can't. That's against terms of service to sell skins(accounts) to another person. So yea it becomes rare but there no inherit gain to the person that owns it other than flexing their ego that it's rare. Trust me i get it tho i have tons of rare and old skins on my account so I kinda feel mixed about all this.
Yeah but when I used the word “value”
it’s a relative term not to be taken literally. But I thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
Dude, the OG season shop wasn't exclusive, but they already stated old battle passes aren't returning
Yeah this is correct! 👊
I already own black knight and John wick but I want them to re release so epic can give me a reason to use the skins again, assuming they give them OG edit styles.
Okay i don't know who came up with the idea that renegade and Arial were exclusive. Show me a blog post or something THAT SPECIFICALLY says that these items are exclusive. The blog post I read says and I quote "These items may or may not return at a later date, get them while you can" why is this so hard for people to get a grip on. Its in fine print on black on white yes it sucks that now its a bot skin but at the end of the day its just a skin. If the game ever shut down then everything one owned on there account, gone. Its pixels not actually real. Sorry to burst y'alls bubble its not that serious.
A lot of people are here probably just care about rarity and not actually the skins themselves so
Might ultimately be a good thing tho. If everyone has every skin then so what, yeah it won’t be as rare but at that point people will start to just wear the skins they actually like and not just cuz it was rare at some point. Would be a little sad but Fortnite in general changes so I think it’d be okay
Thanks for watching and adding your feedback, bro! 👊
How could you think it was exclusive when it was never advertised as exclusive 1:25
Are you stupid? He knows. Its just that epic and been milking the crap out of renegade raider of the past couple years as if it was never going to come back and that it was exclusive and now they're just releasing it out of nowhere. The fact that this is the first release of the skin in 7 YEARS is enough to prove that it WAS exclusive. (now its not though because epic is a greedy money hog)
I would REALLY love to get my hands on the omega skin. Although im og, I really dont mind og skins coming back. At the end of the day, its just a digital skin, nothing more. Well, thats just my opinion.
Well I only started in Chapter 1 Season 4 because I didn't really have the money for a console or PC before. I wanted to have Renegade Raider and Arial Assault Trooper, not because they are rare but because I just really like both of them, they doesn't look super cool but they aren't bad either. So I think it's good that Epic brought the skins back.
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts, bro! 👊
The new battle passes from now on are no longer exclusive and can be used again in shop
Yeah
And also the reason why they releasing those type of skins due to the factors they want other players to stop purchasing accounts. That’s the second reason why they doing that people need to do their research.
Yeah it seems a lot of people agree with this logic. Makes sense! Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
Battle Passes before August 2024 (or whatever month it was) are exclusive. The Season Shop never was exclusive.
Yeah exclusivity matters. But at the same time there is always new players that would miss prior skins.
It’s probably because they know majority of the real ogs don’t even play anymore and they just don’t care simple as that
Exactly less sales and less playtime in the long run. I havent seen that much renegade raiders at all while playing. Goes to show you that you shouldnt cater to a vocal minority of 5 yr olds that dont even buy skins. If we can give epic the same backlash they got with the Halo skin style then they will revert
It will be interesting to see how it all plays out in the long run. Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
I played in ch 1 season 3 up until now and seeing these skins return just feels wrong. Yeah they’re technically item shop skins and could’ve returned at any time but seeing the most rare sought after cosmetics in this game come back to the item shop again feels really weird and I personally would’ve been fine having them not return. ( never owned the skins btw I started in ch s3)
Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback, bro! 👊
I think it's fine as long as they wait a long time after removing it to bring it back this time instead of 7 years maybe wait 14 years
Item shop cosmetics coming back okay yeah makes sense but battle pass skins we had to not only buy but grind for is just absurd it’s not even ab the skin anymore at that point it’s about the time and dedication it took to get the skin if you call me childish for saying this you ARE the child
speaking facts
Told to some of my fellow gatekeepers back then not to gatekeep "shop" skins because its not even stated that they were exclusive in the first place. Also this is just nothing compared to epic's previous changes.
They did state they were exclusive they literally said it in the first fortnitemares
Respectively this whole situation is foolish if you dont see yourself actually using the cosmetics you purchase why buy them. If you invest money in cosmetics not because you like them but because you hope new people cant buy those items in the future then thats a personal & petty issue
Realising of og skin is never a bad idea OG players are jealous or just they wanted to show off infront of new player
They r only doing this bc of the law suit, it's cooking them rn
i came around during C1S3 and i could care less about getting those skins. the real rare items though are the ones locked behind battlepasses and collab offers with Samsung.
the renegade raider skin and aerial assault skins were not exclusive, they were in an item shop, and every item shop skin can come back
They were season shop exclusives
Didn't buy it then, won't buy it now. I straight up only get shit I like.
Fair! 👊
Yea I also think its bad that they realesing it but tbh there will be an og Version Like with skull and gouhl Trooper
i wouldn’t care if any of it came back i’d be happy to get what i didn’t when i had the chance and the same for others
A lot of people on both sides are using the “it’s just pixels” argument. But nobody can use it…
Because EVERYONE cares about the special pixels!!! **commence mwahahahaha emote for extra awesomeness**
😂😂😂🙌👌Thanks for watching, bro! 👊
They asked for og fortnite, and when we got og Fortnite they start complaining
