    Cryptic are you serious ?
    This is by far the worst thing you guys have ever done. These where event ships. I know you guys sell event ships in mudds... and ok put these in there one at a time if you want like all the other event ships... but a mudd bundle ? REALYY

    I hope no one that missed these events is stupid enough to buy these ships. If your a newer player that missed these ships and you are reading this. DO not buy this, these ships are free ship level and are ok as free ships go and no more. Hold your money for a proper Mudd bundle with gamble ship unlocks or wait for sale and buy a mudd bundle you missed.

    This is shameful Cryptic.

    I can only agree. These three ships are event ships, and nice to have. But seriously, putting them together in a Mudd's Bundle is WAY overpriced even compared to other overpriced Mudds Bundles.

    I could see Cryptic putting the three ships together for 9000 Zen as a C-Store bundle, but this, at least IMO is overpriced.

    BTW, regarding the Mega bundle:
    "The Mudd's MEGA Forged Alliance Bundle is a one stop purchase to obtain all eight items in the pack at once! The pack contains all eight items, no choices needed."

    I see only 7 items. This seems to be a copy-paste error.

    What I would want is a 75% Mudd Bundle sale to happen on a regular basis, that would put the items in there in an acceptable price range.

    To this bundle I can only say: shame yourself, Cryptic, shame yourself.
    A zero cost way for Cryptic to finance and expand the foundry

    Since apparently it is considered trolling to provide feedback in the form of a question, please let me rephrase:

    When posted, this article showed November 22nd as the date of launch. This is clearly a mistake and as there were numerous other typos in this post and numerous errors in previous recent posts, my constructive feedback would be to please take the time to review, re-read, and edit your articles before they are published to the site. Thank you.

    Nope! :P

    This is another bundle I have no interest in as well. Can we get the Neo Constitution now, please?

    I don't know that Carrier is one of the most popular Carriers in game for the console and Alliance pets and as far as I recall there are no way to get the console or pet for new players or new toons. It seems like a good idea to include that one.

    The main reason I wont buy this pack is is I refuse to spend any more money with the poor state the The 13th Anniversary Terran Bundle pack is in and the state of blogs which are consistently put out in a poor state.

    The HYDRA console and trait still have not been fixed. I am fed up of spending money on items that never get fixed or bundles that have missing items along with blogs that have not had the most basic proof reading. If that's how we are going to be treated its time to stop spending money.

    Regardless if it has something good on it or not its still a free event ship. I have no issue with these being sold in mudds. Mudds has plenty of old event ships in the store. They just don't try to bundle them for more then they are worth.

    These should have been in a mudd 3 pack (only option) for 18k before discount. These are still just event ships. Better yet being event ships they should have just added them each on their own to Mudds... for the same price they have done previous event ships like the T'pau.

    Got them all from events and after i got the traits i stopped flying them.
    Good luck to enthusiasts who covet them, but they're not for me.

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    I’m actually kinda glad about this. The alliance ships are cool and should be more available. I worry this means we won’t get anymore of these ships in the future. Also the pack should have probably included the uniform instead of keys and fluff. It is a missed opportunity. Also the Mudd packs are still overpriced. Since these are only low-level event ships it would have been nice if they considered reducing the price tag.

    Ouch! The Khitomer Class Battlecruiser has already been made available via Mudd and this just really feels like anyone that already purchased it is being given a middle finger. Not cool.

    It's great to see the ships being made available, but in my opinion, this isn't how it should be done.

    Edit:
    Sorry, the previous Khitomer Alliance Bundle is just the Shield and Uniform.
    However, I stand by my second statement.

    Cut base price by 75% then add a 50% Launch discount on that. or better yet, maybe re-launch all the ship events on a cycle? even the t-5 ones because its fun.

    WHAT THE COMPLETE F?
    Three mediocre ships, at best, for $300?!
    Is this some sort of early April Fools' joke?

    Ah, an early April Fool's joke. I laughed quite a bit.

    Actually, you know what my real problem is? I don't live in the US so these packs are almost 50% more expensive to buy so nothing in this game is worth the money.

    MONEY GRAB! These definitely should have been added to the Phoenix Box...
  • paddy#3322 paddy Member Posts: 203 Arc User
    I don't post on the forums very much but I've been a captain here since 2015. Personally, I would like the opportunity to obtain the event ships from prior years without having to deal with the gambling of the Phoenix or Infinity boxes. Further, it would be nice to obtain the ships from the Mudd Store so that all of my alts would have access to them.

    With the above being said, I do feel that the money that is being asked for this bundle is far too high. I support the game and I understand it's a business, but the cost for these ships, for me anyway, is way over the top.

    If the game's current owners want some guaranteed money then put all of the event ships individually for sale at a reasonable price in the Mudd Store and watch the profits roll in.

    The Alliance ships should've been offered individually & as a package.

    The Alliance ships should've had added multiple console, 2 &/or 3, set bonuses.

    The lack thereof exposes what Cryptic really thinks of these ships.

  • paddy#3322 paddy Member Posts: 203 Arc User
    Event ships, which if doing the event are free, have always been less desirable than comparable C Store ships and lock box ships. While some of the event ships are quite good with desirable traits and consoles, overall they are usually not as good in the game as 'for sale' or lottery box ships. Which makes this sale at this price point even more ridiculous.

    Again, put all of the event ships individually up for sale in the Mudd Store. I'd happily buy a few of the older ones like the Samsar Cruiser or the Breen ships I missed. Easy way to make the bosses some money because I'm certainly not going to gamble for them.

    Oven $500/USD for the mega pack!? Is the game doing so badly they have to gouge as much money out of its players it can?
