Just like many of its battle royale rivals, Apex Legends has jumped right into the cosmetics side of things, releasing new skins for characters, weapons, and others all the time. The skins and cosmetics don\u2019t, usually, often have a competitive advantage during games and should just be used to stand out from the crowd. However, as we\u2019ve seen at times, a few issues slip through and restart the \u201cpay to win\u201d argument. It happened again in the Sun Squad Collection Event after the new Splash Zone skin for the Flatline was branded \u201cpay to win\u201d due to its iron sights. Respawn have already stated that it\u2019s going to change, but NiceWigg wants players to be reimbursed. NiceWigg wants Apex Legends devs to refund players over Splash Zone Flatline skin The popular Apex Legends personality brought it up on stream shortly after Respawn noted they\u2019d be altering the skin, as he couldn\u2019t believe that it had been released in the first place. \u201cI just don\u2019t know how this happens, if I\u2019m being honest,\u201d he started. \u201cThat iron sight is a pay-to-win iron sight. That is a beautiful sight, it is super easy to see, by far one of the best Flatline sights I\u2019ve seen in my life and they said it\u2019s actually supposed to look like the right one. \u201cPersonally, if I\u2019m being honest, they\u2019ve got to give a refund. That is not the same skin! That is two completely different skins,\u201d NiceWigg added. \u201cI think they should refund people and see who wants to buy it again. The skin does look really good outside of the iron sights.\u201d As noted, the devs will be changing the skin, but a refund would certainly be a new step that we haven\u2019t seen before. He\u2019s not alone in believing that there should be compensation, with a number of Apex pros responding to Respawn\u2019s announcement asking for refunds. Though, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NiceWigg urges Apex Legends to refund players over \u201cpay to win\u201d Flatline skin 100 Thieves\/Respawn100 Thieves\u2019 Jack \u2018NiceWigg\u2019 Martin has urged Respawn to dish out refunds to players who bought the \u201cpay to win\u201d Flatline skin since it is getting changed already.
