    Not sure that the L4D ones would happen as we have some outfits that portray characters but I have to admit I would love to see most if not all of these come into the game in the future.

    Great choices, so exciting to think that in the near future some of these will likely become a reality 😀

    Absolutely stellar list, the only inclusion I'd personally add is Adam to the Tapp legendary cosmetics. Poor guy got stiffed...

    This ^

    When Bill came to the game other L4D characters came in the form of free alternate cosmetics to the other 4 original survivors.

    • Dwight Fairfield as Ellis - a zombie hunter with a keen interest in cars and music (from Left 4 Dead 2).
    • Meg Thomas as Zoey - a horror film buff who suddenly seemed to live in one of her favorite zombie movies (from the original Left 4 Dead).
    • Claudette Morel as Rochelle - a TV producer who had to change jobs as the zombie invasion came (from Left 4 Dead 2).
    • Jake Park as Francis - a hardened biker and a member of the ruthless biker club Hell's Legion (from the original Left 4 Dead).

    If anything these cosmetics should be changed and updated to the legendary rarity since it matches their concept of "cosmetics which change a character into a different person completely" and made available for these characters specifically.


    And on a personal note, I always thought that Nick should have been an obvious choice for Ace. So,

    • Ace Visconti as Nick - a gambler and a con artist with a shady―even violent―past. (from Left 4 Dead 2).

    and there are also these paragraphs on the wiki about Nick:

    "Nick wears a white suit and blue shirt he claims is worth $3,000. He has multiple rings on his fingers, one of which bears a symbol belonging to a gang. It can be gathered from his appearance that he is a ladies' man as he has lipstick smudged on his collar as well as a love bite, or hickey, on his neck."

    "It is mentioned on multiple occasions that he was previously married"

    "A lifetime of drifting from city to city, finding back-alley card games and trying to stay out of jail has taught Nick two valuable lessons: Don’t trust anyone, and look out for number one."

    "He’d come down to Savannah looking for some gullible fish on the riverboat gambling cruise circuit. Instead he found a city about to be engulfed by infection."


    A lot of this information very closely connects Nick to the same archetype of character that Ace Visconti is.

    -Ace by default wears "A classic jacket wonderfully arranged with a generously open damask print shirt." In a very similar style of fashion that Nick does.

    -Ace can also be described as a ladies' man, as multiple cosmetics deliberately call this out: One called "Hey Ladies" and in another, the description for the Red Smoking Jacket from the Tomcat outfit reads: "This one is for the ladies"

    -Ace like Nick also wears a ring, a silver ring can be seen on his ring finger which also implies that he may also be married.

    -Ace like Nick may also be accustomed to traveling similar to a "lifetime of drifting" the outfit description for Ace Vegas reads: "Ace's debts sore to new heights. To get his luck back, he needed to visit his gambling mecca: Las Vegas." implying he has made multiple trips to this part of the world.

    -This was just a fun comparison piece, Nick went "looking for some gullible fish on the riverboat gambling cruise" and the map setting that Ace Visconti shipped with was the Backwater Swamp, the main "building" in the map of which is The Pale Rose, a riverboat / "ancient paddle steamer"

    Conclusion: Make Nick a legendary skin for Ace Visconti
