    Can't decide between Esamir Snow , Rocky Tundra , Forest Greyscale and . Halp pls :(!
    (The reason i want to buy those is because they are a bundle , vehicle/armor/wpn for just 750 SC)

    EDIT: I just need one for esamir (one of the bundles) but you still can suggest good one you like even if they are not fitting for esamir! Probably going to buy one of the other when they are on sale then ;)

    Try those out in VR, you can equip all cosmetics in the VR now. Then just pick which set you like best. I personally use the Esamir Snow for my armor, Forest Grayscale for my weapon and Rocky Tundra for my vehicles.

    I only buy camos when they are on daily sale or member sale, thats why I have a mixture of them :)

    Northern Forest is my preferred camo out of all the neutral whites.

    Rocky Tundra best of the cold weather camos imho :D

    IMHO, Esamir Snow is too much bright white to be of any use. Looks cool as hell but unfortunately highlights you in the background.
    Snow Aspen works great in rocky formations and inside facilities because of the darker colours.
    Rocky Tundra is OK but I find it in infantry to be still a little bright and clear camo for my taste; and Forest Grayscale is a nice comprimise between Rocky Tundra and Snow aspen.

    Personally I use Forest Grayscale for my armor and Rocky Tundra for my vehicles.

    Bundle Price is even lower then 50% ;), and yes i also do this usually. Already got the digital one and the dune.



    I really should have stated that i need a camo JUST for esamir D:,

    I use urban forest but I think Esamir Ice Armor is prettiest. :)

    when I said "cold weather camo" since we only have the ice ball of Easamir as a cold weather cont it's what I meant, I soley wear Rocky Tundra there, Snow camo is to bright white for me and I think that detracts from it's camo effect and Forest grey scale has far to much black in it to be a decent cold weather camo.
    That's why I much prefer the Tundra, it's muted tones I think blend in the best.

    I have Rocky Tundra but it is very bright, even out in the snow you shine against the background. It does look cool though.

    A better option is the Northern Forest. It blends into the Esamir snowscape much better IMO.

    Wish it would be on sale :(, i tried it and it looked very good indeed! But 1k SC is just too much imo.


    I meant this to all, sry if this wasn't clear. And yes, i think i gonna buy Rocky Tundra then, i tested all of them and it just looks the best, i also like esamir snow but it is REALLY bright.



    Looks good but unfortunately not in the bundle :(

    Taking a look at Pikachu's screenshoots, actually Esamir Ice should work great in the open snow places because of the blue tones of Esamir (that's why bright white camo doesn't work and instead highlights its user clearly). But also keep in mind Esamir is finally a more "Tundra"ish landscape (more in the line of PS1's Esamir instead of the ice rock that initially was in PS2), presenting some arid soil zones, where snow has melt, and scrubs. As well as other snowy zones with tundra forest where you can find trees and more scrubs and rock formations as cover. So a more "global" camo to fit all the possible situations, you'll find in battle, would be more in the line of Northem Forest, Snow Aspen or even Forest Grayscale, imho.

    I use snow aspen for infantry/sniping, but I'm VS. I wanted one that would (hopefully) blend in with rocks. I'm told by my outfit mates that it makes me look very NC.

    For armour I just picked the darkest/greyest of the "white" camos I could find.

    Northern Forest camo for Esamir. It's still pretty much just white, with just enough very light grey to break up the outline well.

    Esamir Snow. I use it all the time. Its not too bright to mug you off at night time and not too contrasty in itself to make you stand out against plain hills and rocks at distance.

    Second place Snow Aspen. Still a good balance of greys and whites, my personal favourite but a bit too contrasty for all round use.
