  • Daily Skin DroPS – We’ve increased the drop rate of skins from once per week, to once per day! In addition, skins appear in the loot drop after a heist, no need to open safes anymore! Any existing safes you already have in your inventory will remain there until you open them.

Note that this does NOT involve collecting or storing any personal information, but rather focuses on bulk data and big-picture playing patterns. We will track things such as which heists are the most played, average play session length, and the relative popularity of different weapons, perk decks and heisters.
