Its a shame, feeling a bit mugged off having only just got the dread pack so recently. Really disincentivises picking them up. Oh well, live and learn - don't fall for FOMO as they'll have them pack at like half the price again in two weeks.
I spent last night respeccing everything after just noticing the last one, only to hear there's another today by the sounds of it. It has been very frustrating. This gesture is sincerely appreciated. Thank you guys. Edit: I stand corrected, recent patch has retroactively fixed issue not redone it. So double thank you guys.
That's a shame, I thought we'd moved away from character unlocks of stuff. I agree with the people saying they seriously overvalue the level skips, leveling is so straight forward and it doesn't take long to get a character equipped with decent gear really either. I never really get if these are for new or long time…
I was on board till I saw the price tag, even at 50 % off it isn't very accommodating of players who already own the walker (let alone players who already have the shenzhou skin as well), though its nice to have a tier 6 version (I believe the original locks to T4 max, right?) The boffs are quite cool, though substantially…
Personally think they should be giving progress, not extending the event. As much as I've generally enjoyed it (which is more than can be said for most it seems) the mess of this event makes me agree that there is no respect for our time or for us, to release it with those problems and then extend the event as a solution.
Yeah, this TFO has really highlighted why they've been pushed towards that design philosophy. How can you do anything interesting when players can't even work out how to 4 things with 5 players?
It reminds me of something J'mpok said during the Temporal arc, that it was just one side of the circle, and the other side would come around and see hostilities again. Obviously, since he's willing to cause them. Also, again, I think the big thrust of what's going to happen is in the one thing she says about leadership of…
They did temporarily have an account wide service bundle - but it was replaced by the elite services pack unfortunately. Sorry for not linking post, probably would have been easier than copying the text really. :/ Got carried away in my excitement.
That's my issue with quite a few of the bundles. They become entirely uneconomical the moment you happen to already have even one of the items usually. It would be great if they could make use of the scaled pricing again.
I'm loving the look of this pack so far. The intrepid update to allow the use of delta flyers coupled with the warship skin are great, as well as the inclusion of the Crossfield is awesome.
Getting a load of remasters of the hero ships, as well as some that were previously lockbox only is something I am definitely considering. I've not made a purchase in a long while, and this is something I'm keeping my eye on closely.
I feel like we're glossing over the fact we were told these things *had* to be in lockboxes because of CBS wanting to maintain rarity etc. But now its suddenly okay because its a less popular ship and writing is on the wall for the legality of lockboxes in many territories?
Purely anecdotal, but I don't engage in any of the lockbox/lobi stuff really and while I don't agree with gamble mechanics, I'd bite the bullet if once I had something it was an unlock rather than something that would be trapped on a particular character. I like having options not being boxed in. I'd probably would have…
So they're pulling the same stunt of trying to slip single character unlocks through an overpriced bundle that most people will own most the contain of? Great. Pass. Had been looking forward to this.
Just to add to my comment. If the current 'discounts' are in fact the actual price as part of the 'theme' of it being mudd's store, then it is also misleading in that this isn't an introductory offer and is illegal for this also. This whole system needs some seriously clarifications as on the face of it it is breaking…
Obviously laws change between regions, but in the UK: "Broadly, any price comparisons of this kind must not be misleading. For example: to claim that products are on sale, you should show the previous price and should have been selling at that price for a meaningful period of time you must not claim a discount against the…
You've summed up why this type of practise is illegal in several regions, as I've already mentioned. Even if its intended as a joke (I'm not going to assume malice) its really not appropriate.
The Fear of Missing Out effect is a strong one, and companies prey on this with fake sales. Its not a case of a humour malfunction, sales and the way they are presented are heavily legislated in many places including the EU for the reason I've just stated. This is a new system for the store that we don't fully know the…
