Despite the "no microtransactions" label, the communication all-around for the cosmetics kinda sucks and I want to clarify some stuff.
- While there is an absolute ton of stuff to unlock in-game, a bunch of armors and handful of weapon skins are labeled stuff like "VIPs only" and "Veterans only."
- In reality, most of that stuff is available via the "Supporter Pack" for $20. The only exceptions here are some scoreboard icons and anything labeled "Veterans only" or "Content Creator only."
- Despite plenty of paid/event/status cosmetics being shown in the menus, that's not actually everything. For example, there are currently Twitch drops available to get purple gun skins for a bunch of weapons.
But unlike games like CoD, you can ignore the vast majority of this shit and just play. There's no in-game store or anything, you load the game up and they just go "here's all the available quickplay modes and the community servers button, have fun."
