    Default Maybe some retro gear in the future?

    I was scrolling through the pictures on the Facebook page and saw a lot of retro gear and thought that some of it looked cooler than the gear we have now. I don't know why the look was changed but maybe it would be cool if weapons that are, broken, worn ,or torn they actually have a worn down look. Just an idea.

    Retro gear is an awesome idea! Wow. Pocket legends has changed a lot now than it was then.

    @cahaun I remember the flaming axe when I brought it with plat ages ago. It was the best weapon I had. I'm now 61 so I don't use anymore

    I always loved the old bear look much more than the new one, the new bear looks like a mich simpler design :/

    It isn't so much retro gear as much as altered gear. Version 1.4 came packed with a graphics revamp. Which changed items to what you see today. So it'd be pretty difficult (I think, at least) to bring back the old styles as new items. That, and most of them wouldn't really match with today's gear. As much as I miss old alien blasters

    I'd rather have those crappy rifles than those "Blaster" cbows.

    If they do find a way and implement this, can we get the old berets back?

    When you said retro I thought, "Alright! Psychedelic stuff were we come " but retro gear is way more psychedelic
