The rockett said: I just don’t know anymore. While I get it’s cool to reskin some of these, why can’t this energy and resources be focused on issues that the community has brought up. Feeders for all 5*. New game modes. Yellow node, making this a 1 clear locking node. Buffing older chars, last time was over 1 year ago now minus Gambit. Etc. Because the changes you (and the majority of players) suggested, are money-free changes, while the "supports" and now the "costumes" changes have players pay to achieve them. Sad but true

mega ghost said: While I like the idea of being able to change costumes, making these limited-time and behind a paywall only further pushes the unhealthy "collecting" part of MPQ and has no bearing on the actual gameplay. If development resources are going to be directed somewhere, I really would like it to be the gameplay side of things. For example:-New game modes and events.-New goons with new abilities, creating new gameplay mechanics.-Refresh and rework the characters that are in the bottoms of their tiers, like 4* FalCap, to name one of many in desperate need of it.-Update the champion rewards system. We need more feeders, and I'm sick and tired of selling 3* covers now that most of my 3* tier is max-champed. I can only roster so many duplicates before it becomes a complete chore and burden on resources.

(emphasis mine) Well, seeing how time-limited these costumes are... It doesn't look like they're really trying.If they really want this as a good extra income source, why not add an in-game skin shop where you can just directly purchase some costumes for a few bucks. Not weird shenanigans with VIP or HfH deals.
So, let's see...
One costume you get for free with Another purchase
One is a hero for hire offer
One is available in a vault.
Guess they are going to see which variant brings in the most Money Before they decide how to distribute future costumes.

We don’t know what you might be able to do in the future to earn costumes....imagine an extra ally reward for completing both sides in Civil War, for example. Make these accomplishment trophies / bragging rights (as well as monetized), and get some more visually interesting ones (I feel safe predicting those will come) and you could have a good thing going.
