I posted this on scratch so I won't get flamed by ppl on a certain other app LOL anyway as any of you still active in bedwars know, battlepass kits are returning for good. and while I see a ton of people being mad about allat, I think it's a good idea for now, but COULD use some tweaks. honestly for a game like bedwars, limited kits were NOT a good idea, and the devs should have known that. t50s take a long time to grind for so people expect them to be op -> bedwars devs listen and make them op -> a bunch of people with infinite time and enough money to pour into the paid battlepasses who played a while ago have all the super meta t50s while everyone else has to rent them. and I see this argument a lot: "they can just rent the kits!!!" alright: say, you're a new player and want to buy a kit that you find super cool, e.g. eldertree, and want to buy it. but, you want to play seriously and want to rent out a BP kit to do so rather than one of the basic/weekly free kits. You rent one BP kit for 2k bedcoins (2 days' daily quest grind) and get it for 3 days. So in the span of 3 days, you get 1k bedcoins. which means it takes 30 DAYS to get whatever kit compared to 10 days, and if you want to play another BP kit while still continuously renting your current one your bedwars balance is going downhill, which essentially forces you to use robux and buy extra bedcoins + kits you want. Another argument I have seen is that bringing back legacy kits "disrespects" legacy players, and as a person who has played this game since launch, I disagree. Even though I'd played since then, I don't own a SINGLE t50 BP kit. why? first of all my parents didn't approve of me spending IRL money on video games by then as I was too young to make my own money at that time, and remember bedcoins didn't exist until after BP s10 (aka the last). second of all I had school and I had chores. I didn't have infinite time to grind. I got grounded a lot for not doing this and not doing that, and I had a certain screen time limit. and lastly, I sometimes didn't have the motivation to play. I skipped the entirety of s5 and s6 because I was simply interested in other games at the time instead. I'm most definitely not the only legacy player who has had this experience. the people with paid battlepass exclusive kits, especially t50s, has time to grind and enough money to spend. I'm not mad at them for that and I'm glad they could, but it's unfair to gatekeep that from the rest of the community just because they didn't play at a certain time or didn't have the money and the motivation. I have a buncha free BP kits but none of the paid ones, and it's nice to see that I have an opportunity to get paid ones now. And besides, if you want to show that you supported the game early on during certain seasons, the skins given to people who owned said kits before the re-release is essentially a symbol of that (I have a section on this later haha). There's a ton I have to say about t50s and my opinion on whether they should be re-released or not, but I'm going to make another project on that due to the scratch text limit :'D But the way easy gg is releasing these kits does have some room for improvement. first of all: the cost. back in the day each battlepass would cost 799 robux, and now paid battlepass exclusive kits only cost 599 robux, which I feel is super unfair to those who spent their money to get these exclusive kits back then. imo they should bump the robux cost to 799+ per kit, and make the bedcoin cost higher. it would make people who paid for bp feel that their money was well spent while still keeping the kits buyable. idm grinding for my goat raven even if it takes longer haha. the second complaint I have about this is the skins. specifically, the skins awarded to the people who got the kit before relaunch. in my honest opinion, the skins that you can now buy with robux that came with the kit relaunch look MUCH better and have more effort put into them than the skins you got from owning them before, which I feel is an issue. I get that the devs need money and therefore make buyable skins pretty, and the legacy owner skins don't earn them any money, but the legacy owner skins just feel super underwhelming, and I feel like legacy kit owners deserve more for the work they put into grinding back then. the low quality of these legacy kit owner skins feels kinda offensive imo, and while re-releasing these kits gives new players a chance I feel that older players also deserve some benefits from these updates. (to non-bedwars players: search up the og jade chroma skin then jade's default skin for reference) I also feel that legacy kit owners should receive at least 15k bedcoins when the kit they owned is re released or smth because once again the reward for getting the kits back then is super underwhelming. plus the kits WERE advertised as limited and never returning back then, so a bigger compensation is completely fair.
(had to put stuff here because the desc got too long oopsies) honestly after BP s10 ended I was fully expecting the BP kits to return, but in my imagination they were going to rerun all battlepasses, starting S1 all over again, then continuing to let the battlepasses loop like that until the game stopped updating. once BP s11 came out I realized I was wrong and just lost hope. but now here we are in the big '26 with s1 kits returning anyway ty for attending my ted talk /j I'm going to make a separate project on my thoughts about whether t50 kits should return or not also I haven't played bedwars since BP s11 so I'm trying to relearn the game :'D got 3 kills as the whisper owl which is my record (skibidiflipping owl does like no dmg man) sorry if this was poorly written and sorry if there's grammar errors this was really just a rant and I did not review after typing LOL
