EA said they cant have cosmetics because it would break canon, yet if you preordered you get cosmetic skins for Rey and Kylo

Vader Skins:

There's literally only Anakin there as a Skin. "Slightly chipped away helmet" or "Helmet missing" or "Leather on leg missing" is not a valid fucking skin. And Anakin won't happen, because he'll probably be his own hero for the light side.

Finn: Stormtrooper can't happen for gameplay reasons. TLJ one is a possibility.

As for this link

Further, how would you see this implemented? The Bfront 2 legion gets replaced with 501st? The colors stay the same as the Bfront 2 Legion, but use the 501st patterns? Which also wouldn't make sense? Let every single user pick the colors themselves, resulting in rainbow clone armies? What about classes? Are the helmets etc class restricted, since the glance value of a class shouldn't be compromised for gameplay reasons? Or can you now be a Heavy who looks like a scout? Keep in mind you can't compromise glance value for gameplay reasons. I.e. an Assault has to look like an Assault, a Specialist has to look like a specialist.
