I have the Bortasqu' and the Odessey 3-pack bundles. Am I going to have to pay seperately to have each ship in the bundle upgraded? That would make me unhappy. I might even cry.Does anyone know if there might be any sort of "bundle upgrade"?

I have those plus the Scimi and Vesta 3-packs so I too may be paying through the nose. So far, however, they have not released any information on whether or not 3-packs will get a discount. My guess is that they probably won't if they price them at $5 a pop and will if they price them at $10 a pop.
I likely just upgrade the free ships and save my zen.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.
2) Each of the 3-pack ships are listed in the pay-to-upgrade schedule
There's no other way to read it: they expect you to pay to upgrade each of the models you still want to fly.
that's pretty much what I thought.
theres no way im gonna waste any zen on a half upgrade.

You very well might get a discount anyway, the list is only of ships that WILL get upgrades not what each one will cost. We do not have enough information to know for sure.
Single ship T5U upgrade = 500 zen
3-pk ship T5U upgrade = 1000 zen
True, but those ships can be purchased individually as well as part of the packs, so it would make sense to provide a path to upgrade individual ships that might be part of a pack.
We won't know until they tell us. If the normal per-ship upgrade cost is relatively high ($10), I will not upgrade 3-pack ships unless there's a discount for the bundle or a sale price on the normal cost. If it's relatively low ($5 per ship), I would probably absorb that.

I use pretty much only one, and if they decide to charge for each ship, guess what only 1 in each 3pack, is going to get my money!

^ this right here i only use the scimatar anyways lol
This is kinda how I had considered it working also...
But here's the thing... Does anyone really use all of the options in a 3 pack?
I've tried each of my Borts and Scimi's and in each case, I've settled on one (the Tac version) as it's clearly head and shoulders above the other two for performance...
If we have to pay for each ship in the pack individually, I will only be upgrading one... Even if there is an option to upgrade the entire pack, I will have to think hard about whether I bother TBH...
You're forgetting one thing... price range hasn't been decided yet. The only thing that is decided is that do WILL pay some cost to upgrade. Your points only mean that they will not be FREE upgrades, which is true... but that was not the OP's question/wish.
If ship upgrades are $5, then I could see them offering "bundle upgrades" for $10. Two upgrades for the price of three, which follows the bundle pack model. There is also precedence for this, with multi-packs for things like keys and R&D bundles.
Doesn't mean it will happen, but they could find this wiggle room quite easily... because, you're still paying ZEN for the upgrade. I think they should do this, as it would help ease some tensions about upgrades.
THIS times a bunch.
I only have one 3-pack, the Oddy bundle. I chose the Operations Cruiser, because of the plus to all systems modifier. I don't own more bundle packs (as of now), but I'd imagine it would work the same... you may use all 3 consoles in the pack, but you fly only one ship.
And, this is the only reason why I wouldn't be shocked if they DIDN'T do an upgrade bundle.
went through the price listing and Fragging explained the cost..
read posts...!
just save ur zen if ur concerned.
simples!!
oddy/vesta/bortq/Kmari etc.
otherwise ....
heaven will weep...!
The OP isn't not looking for confirmation that the individual ships in C-Store multipacks will be upgradeable individually, he's asking for a bulk discount for upgrading all three at once, like the buy-two-get-one-free deal he originally got the ships in.

this. you mean there are people out there who actually USE the engi Oddy? I can see sci for the SA and tac for the extra tac slot, but there is no reason to use the engi hull at all
as it stands I will pay for three upgrades, One T'varo and two B'rel. I won't upgrade anything else. I'd rather get lockbox ships and upgrade them
I own three three packs...and I've never flown more than one of the three...mostly just end up using...I mainly use consoles and customizations.
Yes, be prepared to be unhappy. Better just pick your favorite out of each 3-pack bundle and just upgrade that one unless you want to spend 3x as much.
