[@rx327]

Yessir I agree with you, specifically with how their customization styles have become cheap copies of super styles.

[@Sp5DerYTG]

I’m so tired of gold and galaxy colors

[@Emidretrauqe]

I'm tired of how unwilling they are to detail any of those superstyles. They just slap the effect flatly over so many of these and it just comes off as gaudy and lazy.

[@drinkinbuddy8264]

I cancelled. Maybe they’ll finally make changes. I know people want passes. But I would like a glider and wrap instead so that these skins can be mained. They give us skins I don’t really know what to do and o have nothing to use with them. I think she’s cool like a ghost hunter from the tv shows. I would LOVE to see a complete set for these skins.

[@ironraptorterror]

Yes they have been lazy and I have said this months ago but everyone was hyped up about the additional styles,I miss the days when the skins were unique,came with loading screens or had some unique reactive gimmick ,came with soundtracks,now their just one skin,one backbling,and one pickaxe that’s it,it’s boring

[@JUSTTHENORMALLIFE]

I like May Crew Pack but like I really want them to add everything they have (Gliders, Wraps, Emotes,etc) so it feels like we are getting everything or like more

[@Buplo]

They really are getting worse they used to be so good with balanced quantity and quality and now its just quantity and with older packs its hard to want the new ones especially as if you bought the crew in may 2021 you would get the following for just one $12 purchase: Deimos Skin + Green & Green Glow Styles Sorrow's Edge Backbling + Green & Green Glow Styles Sorrow's Reach Pickaxe + Green & Green Glow Styles + one-handed variant Doomed Echo Wrap Skull Stalker Loading Screen Mecha Cuddle Master Skin + Midnight & Royale Styles Psytronic Bow Backbling + Midnight & Royale Styles Nuzzle Jet Pickaxe + Midnight & Royale Styles Cuddle Mech Wrap Mecha Power Music Pack + Instrumental Bearallel Universe Loading Screen Bear Beginnings Loading Screen Cuddle Charge! Loading Screen The New Team Loading Screen 1,000 V-Bucks Save The World Access + Bonus STW Items and Deimos Hero 3 months of Spotify Premium C2S6 Battle Pass Edit: if bought between May 5th - 31st you also got the c2s7 battle pass

[@Santinal-iv8ze]

tf u talking about did you forget green arrow and llambro .... April crew was fire best crew skin and it's ok to have a bad skin no and then and don't forget if you don't like skin maybe another person will like it u don't know

[@Buplo]

​@Santinal-iv8ze I'm talking about what you get rather than how much I like the skin, new crew packs are objectively bad, I like the ares crew pack a lot but for what you get compared to before its among the worst crew packs

[@JVDW1]

​@@Santinal-iv8ze thats not the point 🤦‍♂️ The point is that we got a lot more for our money back in chapter 2.

[@goqurts]

3 months of spotify premium???? 💀💀

[@Buplo]

@@goqurts yeah it was a free bonus from April 22nd to June 30th

[@aserr685]

I miss how crew packs used to be... Also really random but i am so hoping fortnite changes that same boring loading screen that shows everytime you load up fortnite

[@the_keymaker2]

I loved when we had loading screens and lobby music, that was cool!

[@spongeopp682]

I also I liked it when the crew pack skins had a wrap

[@korblox3859]

i meaaan Ares was a really nice skin (imo) so i don't really think they are getting lazy, its more of just a hit or miss

[@Santinal-iv8ze]

exactly

[@Santinal-iv8ze]

people forget about green arrow, llambro, alli, mecha cuddle and much more

[@XJ9sodypop]

crew skins have always been hit or miss. the fact that theyre getting more styles is huge. usually they just got generic backblings and thats it. i have galaxia. these tourists dont know anything. the crew skin with a skin around his neck is lame. ares is just another knight skin, we have a dozen of those.

[@XJ9sodypop]

@@Santinal-iv8ze i actually like llambro lol. he's at least colorful and i love baby blue

[@Santinal-iv8ze]

​@@XJ9sodypop that's ok at least you don't like green arrow... right ?

[@JusticeReigns]

I wish we just had more variance of differences. The skins have been solid, I love the secondary styles that are their own. But they are very formulaic and don't vary in their formula. Like, why not be able to take off her hat? Why not change things up a bit? Idk I love the crew but they need to put some heart into things and creativity.

[@riffska]

Love the skin, hate the hat. It should be toggleable imo. FN needs to make these crew packs more customisable than giving these dumb legacy styles 😭 like, if ya'll really don't wanna give wraps or lobmusic no more then at *least* make the skins worth our cash. Add more customisability, like a toggleable hat in this case.

[@acidlucifer666]

Yes it's getting lazy we need access to all festivals passes and mini battle passes

[@XxCellychanxX]

Having the option to remove the hat/glasses/extra stuff would be nice on Silas and Llana

[@steventarsitano3209]

If all the extra styles were unique and not this standard series of styles we are currently getting, it would be way better.

[@CB6368]

It’s all lazy. The UI, bug fixes, all of it man. Do people not notice the downfall over the years?

[@loneXolf]

I agree it does feel like the Legacy Styles limit what they can put in a crew pack. I would prefer more modular customization, like removing hats but it would look scummy if they put that behind a paywall.

[@SoloPlayz828]

Personally i dont really mind the crew pack styles. But i dont like the cosmic legacy (on certain skins) i think they should switch up the crew pack styles but i know that aint gonna happen for awhile

[@floggingthreat6566]

She's the type of skin I use so I'm happy. I don't think the additional styles are getting boring however. I miss when we sometimes got a music pack or loading screen.

[@sp-syn]

I mean, compared to green arrow she's pretty good so yall will complain about anything

[@SKULLLZZZZZZ]

I’m personally like it, I had the Fortnite crew since the beginning until about September of last year because I didn’t like the skins from that point on until ares came out and now that this skin is the next crew pack I’m so excited cuz it’s very summer vibes and a good style.

[@rd.dessin]

I noticed a genius move fortnite did is that instead of doing an original bonus skin they are most likely to put them in the crew so that no one can complain and they make more money

[@Apo0]

I like May's Crew pack.

[@winniexblues_]

Good skin but shouldn’t be a crew pack skin for how much it costs. Lazy for a crew pack skin now people gonna feel like they have to pay for it to get their styles for the previous skins

[@ffash597]

​@@winniexblues_you forget that for one you don't have to get the extra styles and also a battle pass and 1000 vbucks and a free skin for 12 dollars is such a good deal this skin is pretty cool in my opinion since it's not a robot or knight

[@afacelessname]

If nothing else, this is probably my favorite crew pack skin since Tracy Trouble.

[@fortnite-enzogames]

I think they could add something special each month. Like let's say for the month of April they could add like a glider that would follow the Legacy style and like for the month of May they could added a loading screen and if we go back to Shimmer dusk she did have a loading screen and she was the first one to have a legacy Style.

[@thetruerain_7902]

might be the first crew pack i will get, i want the second type for it and that's about it

[@saifmohammediqbal9280]

I think the bare minimum for crew pack skins should be that they are customizable...with/without hat, jacket on/off etc depending on the skin, just legacy variants is very lazy..if they added variations to the base outfit it would atleast feel more premium and something worthy of being a crew pack skin.....it doesnt have to be like the spectral knight level of customization, but maybe like piper pace

[@KinnArchimedes]

Yes, I'd like proper customisation for Crew Skins, not this Legacy Style crap. Usually half the legacy styles don't even look good on the skins they're painted to.

[@bobbysummers9011]

Disappointing crew pack skin figured since it is a Greek god theme we would have got more gods

[@d0tbat]

Only thing lazy is the lack of a Barefoot style idc

[@Ryoko40]

💀

[@Ryoko40]

[@nok4799]

Huh?

[@quest9015]

Toph might be the skin for you

[@ReeseHosgood]

I only get a month’s crew pack if I like the cosmetics in it, but I did always like it when you got stuff besides just the skin, pickaxe & back bling in that month’s crew pack.

[@Holacooper]

There should be wrap, loading screen and jam track instead of the legacy styles

[@sparkleprizm199]

If their edit styles were more unique I’d be down but it seems like they all get the same edit styles. Which is kinda boring.

[@AJAX7558]

I read it as Sneako😭😭

[@EmpireEnemy]

Yes

[@JoniEscar_07]

I'm waiting for all those things they've asked in surveys we wanted for the Crew and were planned to be added, like it should include the Festival Pass.

[@ncaaguru17]

I think the last 4 crew pack skins have been pretty good. Katt is my favorite cat skin and Ares is a fine Black Knight reskin. Spirit Hunter looks like a skin sweaty players will really like. As far as styles, 6 styles with 1 unique style is pretty good for any skin so all of them getting that many is a nice bonus. As far as value, when you time it right, 2 skins, 2 battle passes, 1000 vbucks free rocket pass for free car in fortnite is excellent value for $11.99. I dare you to find that kind of value in the item shop.

[@Emidretrauqe]

That's once every 3 months. You could make that purchase any month of the season.

[@BoosterTheRooster1]

She would look a lot better without the hat

[@lewcina1343]

A toggle for the hat would've been nice like that skull trooper lady

[@simonshura9144]

I disagree this time because its a stylish 🧢

[@ErykRoll]

Hell nah i love hats

[@Emidretrauqe]

​@@ErykRollRemember being told to take off your hat when you went into places? I bet you didn't like being forced to do that. You lived long enough to see yourself become the villain.

We NEED Donald Mustard NOW!

What does this have to do with the crew pack

[@LuxeGamer.3]

@@Alright281 If Donald Mustard still there, the Crew pack will not too lazily designed. Use brain man.

[@Gameress84]

Definitely and the 5 styles are so boring now. She reminds me of another version of Ruby. Just different outfit and face.

[@freddie7988]

It’d be cool if there were mixed legacy styles that referenced previous seasons or super styles like chrome, spire, cube, foil, etc

[@christmvz]

that's why i only buy crew once per season. it's usually a basic skin, pickaxe & extra styles

[@PuppyHeart]

We need wraps and loading screens added back to crew

[@negentropyagent7337]

Never seen anyone use a cosmic skin EVER

[@brandonstarstorm3289]

Because it takes so long to unlock the things 😂

[@leeedwards7365]

I use the crew skin for a month and then I archive it i have maybe 6 or 7 that aren't archived and 4 or 5 that i have loadouts for but for the most part i just use them for the month. I had about 30 archived

[@SlayingMantis676]

"Getting" lazy?

[@lallaki]

I mean, the new crew skin kinda sucks, it's so simple

[@SlayingMantis676]

@@lallaki a lot of them have sucked, this is far from the worst, but I agree it's not good. in my opinion crew skins have been nearly as bad as battles pass skins unfortunately, got bucket hats? LMAO

[@Dragonfred555]

I really miss getting gliders and soundtracks. I want those for skins

[@ZekeTrailblazer]

This design is great. Not sure what the problem is. It is better than a few of the ones we have already had this year.

[@KDogg_727]

I like the skins we been getting but the legacy stuff is getting old

[@mariespears9460]

I enjoy when the crew skins feel exciting. Like the fun little surprises like getting the twins, or having all the different customizations like with Joni the red. Or when the skins felt like they had some care put into them, like with Southpaw or Mecha Strike Commander (which had a built-in emote). Vi's alternative skin feels like a different skin rather than just the same skin with a different wrap, which makes her special to me. And then there is the uniqueness that was Sylvie and her amazing dragon back bling. Breezabelle had different alternatives that made her feel special too. Hoping that Fortnite brings back that charm that made the crew pack feel special.

[@DavePatrick001]

I do enjoy that the crew pack variants actually change the accessories too. The Battlepass bonus styles never include the accessories anymore, so you can never match stuff when you want to wear one of the bonus styles. It's dumb. At least back during the Ghost vs Shadow season, your backblings turned gold too.

[@RealbluesparkFN]

I love the gold styles on the recent crew packs

[@NovaCrowned]

I like this skin a lot. But i do think they should start adding gliders and loading screens etc.

[@shawnzilla83]

Subscription should start a unlocking over time going into reverse as well to unlock older crew packs

[@lonelyforever69]

Its the ash ketchum pose for me lol

[@3xcelsi0r10]

Wait if I have a 2 month break between crew. I won't get the next legacy skin on the old crew?

[@mr.l5783]

This is the first crewpack I’ve seen where the additional styles look worse than the original style.

[@Rogar555]

I'm probably im the minority, but I absolutely hate cosmic space cosmetics. Why do all of these influencers hype up the style like it is going out of style same with that one skin that people got with the Samsung phones? Either way, I do like that all the skins have a way with them so you can match them with items better.

[@jennifernicholson6159]

I want wraps, lobby tracks, gliders, & loading screens. It's ridiculous that we don't get those for Crew packs. Crew cosmetics should be able to fill your locker with matching items.

[@famoussession7426]

Interesting how there's still only been 3 months of a crew pack being a collab skin. One of which was a remix.

[@Cyrus4263]

It’d be better if every now and then, or even every month, the legacy styles were of previous months unique legacy styles, as long as they obviously worked for that months particular skin

[@benb4002]

They need to switch it up on the last 4 legacy styles every time

[@SpiralTheFirst]

Nah, this skin looks good. Legacy styles are dumb but they’re not something bad, they’re just a bonus Edit: I do think that they should add full sets, with gliders and wraps that is

[@pinksywedarnoc8017]

Yeah the crew packs are getting lazier ESPECIALLY with the super styles WHICH YOU HAVE TO WAIT EVERY MONTH FOR AND EVERY NEW SKIN EACH MONTH IS GETTING THOSE DAMN STYLES ONE AFTER THE OTHER!!!!

[@James-ov5kg]

The recent ones i love personally. Its simple. But tbh. Theres not much going for it. I dont care for the super styles except gold but i wish they had music packs loading screens even gliders

[@MatchaFoxx]

I honestly am completely fine with the Crew packs now. Yeah the old ones had a chance of having a lot of nice extras but I’m happy we’re guaranteed the three main items now (Outfit/Backbling/Pickaxe) and we’re guaranteed a unique extra style plus bonus ones. I want to mention this though: they’ve been asking recently what perks we’d like to see added to the Crew, so whatever they choose may basically be the replacement for those possible extras that we’d get in some packs. A major addition would be the Festival Pass, and if they do that I don’t think I could ever ask for more from them for the crew as that would make the value of it go from amazing to incredible.

[@brittanywise5158]

i didn't like April crew pack but I love May crew pack

[@Mizdl]

If they could bundle in like a glider and/or emote every month I would be happy

[@Not_convinced]

Let’s be honest, people will either complain that it’s too simple and that they wish it was cleaner. I really like the legacy variants. And you’re right that it’s nice that they all match with each other

[@my71chevro1et]

What about if I buy the CREW membership maybe 3 times a year, but non-consecutive months? Am I eligible for any of the Legacy style unlocks?

[@Shaesi.]

Yes. "WHAT HAPPENS IF I CANCEL MY FORTNITE CREW SUBSCRIPTION? No problem! You will keep all unlocked Legacy Styles, and when you decide to subscribe again, you will continue your progression for your prior Crew Pack items unless the Fortnite Crew Legacy Styles Bonus Benefit is modified, suspended, or terminated."

[@yak4299]

Since the Crew rewards are starting to feel underwhelming for many people, a perk for completing any previous unfinished battle pass could go a long way💡👀

[@xPhlyt]

Honestly, besides the starter packs, level up packs and collab skins i like, I've stopped buying skins because I have enough to wear a different skin every day for more than a year, so why not use the ones I've already brought instead of them just sitting in my locker technically being a waste of money. That's why the last couple months I've had my skins on random and whatever i get, I get. I buy emotes if anything

[@Baymand]

if i buy the crew pack the last day on april i will get the ares skin and that spirit hunter skin too ? i want to know

[@CharanG.171]

The pickaxe is one of my favorite one handed, feels like the leviathan.

[@cookiemonster5438]

They putting less cause they also have to put in time for the Lego variant otherwise it would have had more going for it

[@richardstaufenberg4255]

I saw this happening when they added the extra styles. They are ok but when you give it to to many skins it loses its flair. The styles become unappealing. Also why didn't they use the special styles they have? Like dark, shadow, lava and slurp. Too much rinse and repeat makes things dull. Also when they said rarity is a br thing and they want to step away from the thing that literally made them i wonder why do we have a "battlepass" for every new mode?

[@mastertrolley669]

I dont think they are getting lazy because the last two werr awesome Katt and Ares but sometimes theres just a lame one, altho i still wish we got the 2nd style for just buyimg crew like in the beggaining

[@brandonstarstorm3289]

I don’t have much of a frame of reference for previous crew packs since I haven’t played Fortnite in years and just got back into the game this season, but I personally like this month’s crew pass. People’s opinions on her being basic are valid and I agree that they should have added more detail to her, but I generally like her color scheme and outfit. The real reason I got this crew pass though is her pickaxe, which sort of resembles a lightsaber. The back bling though? I’m not a fan and just archived it.

[@fh6034]

Imagine a crew pack with Ironman or Spiderman and all their variants. I know never will happen but how cool would that be.

[@PonchoPlays]

I wouldn’t mind the lower quality of monthly skins if they gave the festival pass and mini-passes for members

[@DipsYourFriendlyArtist]

They should change the Legacy Style every new chapter

[@4ll4nb31l]

i think you have a point. Since Chapter 5 we havent had one weapon wrap or loading screen in the crew. But you get the super styles. I could still live with this but Epic please fix all the major bugs in the game. Why didnt they revert the lockers when they promised in December they would?

[@skikid99]

Innovator slone was never a crew pack, but we did have a slone skin as the fortnite crew

[@skyneko136]

Saeko looks like she's ready to poke battle

[@tr_p-gaming3958]

Tbh in my opinion it’s the best crew pack this year

[@davidrender5102]

Super styles of the Battle Pass and legacy styles no wrap ect to make a matching combo, it's been happening for years. The tie dye and banner wraps are no good not enough variation of colour, sliding scales and other effects like metallic ect would be better.

[@edgardoesstuf]

Short answer yes Long answer : crew packs used to be SO GOOD I remember when mecha squad commander was the "worst pack" initially because it only came with the skin backbling and like a banner (then it got updated) but now they have normalized us getting almost nothing for the price. I feel like I can speak for everyone when I say these styles are not it at all bro

[@thomasgamer4000]

March could have been so good.... But they hated kit too much to go thru with it

[@spongeopp682]

I ilked it when the crew pack had a loading screen a music pack and a wrap

[@KinnArchimedes]

I miss the music packs and LS even if I didn't particularly like it, it's variety. Legacy Styles by comparison suck for value.

[@darkest_desire3]

Do you remember when we had to unlock pandoras box when there were different shapes made with different stars for gods and monsters well that kind of resembles the cosmic style for ares the did the same thing for Artemis

[@beantimes4199]

Does anyone else notice that this is just a reused skin from a few seasons ago? Its just that one skin, Dusty, but redone a little bit. It even has the same fuckin idle animations, they're just a little bit altered.

[@dextercox3304]

You only get the skin. Oh, of course the edit style.

@@zotharr either way I'd still cost same, don't really matter lol. You know, if you own battle pass, then got the pack. Turns into vbucks. If you don't own it, then you get it without vbucks. So it wouldn't really matter.

@@dextercox3304 It does mater. This way I will have to buy the BP using my own vb, so that's minus 950vb, which I get back later, do it's even. If I get it for free, I still get vbs back, which is extra.

[@luispiedras1055]

Have they got Lazy? Maybe, if they wanted to keep this way, I'd suggest let us have the second edit style and sure, the rest of the legacy can be kept as it is.

In my honest opinion the only best crew pack I seen so far was the chaos agent one that one was a really nice design
