I'm not sure, but apparently not. I sent in a complaint about that, because after all, I did support them earlier along the timeline compared to the event now... and I'm getting less stuff overall
Oh well, it'll sort itself out soon. |

Nope. These dropsuits are a time limited offer to promote merc packs sale during this timeframe (until tomorrow 11:00GMT, if I'm not mistaken). |

edit: And since I rather like the suits, I think I shall... |

Can't go wrong with buying it again. X2 dragonfly suit, x2 toxin smg, x2 booster (60 days), x2 everything bro! Plus 40,000 isk upgraded from 1st merc pack, 40,000 isk from current merc pack, 3 BPO mag suits (that you can sell if you want on the player market when we get it, for a sweet profit). Think of the headstart you'll have on full launch, think of the profit you can make from selling stuff you don't want/use |

The new merc pack armour is just standard type-I armour with a fancy paint job. Shame about missing heavy though. |

Unless you intend on not spending a dime on Dust, this weekend's merc pack is a great deal. So far I have $40 spent and that should give a lot of skill boosters and isk savings using the free gear once release comes out.
Also, last I heard, CCP was planning on removing the "unlimited" militia dropsuits and make them purchasable only.. which means unlimited dropsuits for most every category is a nice isk savings when you want to run cheap. |

Just irritating that the Dragonfly and the Valor together are rather redundant. Really wish that Valor was a Heavy suit instead, then would have a full collection. Oh wells. |

I got an email saying this Tribute merc pack was $20, but on PSN store the only merc pack i can see is $30.
Is this regional price fixing ? |

What region are you in Bug?
I'm in Scandinavia, and we got a 35% price increase to effectively $35. Pissed me off so much that we had to rebuy the pack to get these suits in a game that isn't even launched yet (shady in itself) and then the price increase on top, that I made a case with the national Consumer Protection Directorate.
I doubt anything will come of it, but way to go and step on your customers toes CCP/Sony! |

Confirmed, and reported as well, though the problem in general, not naming this specific item, yet. |

It says on the patch notes that you will be able to buy Militia BPO still that will be unlimited uses for a reasonable amount of Aurum. |

I don't really understand why they wouldn't give people who already have the merc pack this stuff? We preordered a product that hasn't come out yet, and they upgraded that product... |

I'm annoyed at how short the time frame was, some of us work very long hours, without being able to access computer for a long amount of time. |

The MAG suits are BPOs the milita suits are BPC as of CODEX, that's really the most important stat that you need to consider. Beyond that the MAG suits are in essence meta one suits (the step just above milita stat wise). |

I absolutely did preorder. Let's look at the definition: "A pre-order is an order placed for an item which has not yet been released."
Seems to fit. |

Tarn Adari, do you always let companies screw you over? As I said in a previous post in another thread, there is a law in my country that states that offers like these have to be refunded in favour of the consumer if the value changes before delivery. Of course you can argue about what constitutes delivery, but I am pretty sure final delivery is at launch of this game, and in the meantime they have changed the product.
It's basically about supporting the consumer or the supplier. And if you wanna support the supplier, then by all means, be a company *****. |

I don't think "released" means what you think it means. |

In in Australia, there is currently a political inquiry over regional price fixing, a broad study found that on average Australians are charge 40% more for online products and services IIRC.
I did ask support about this and they said CCP doesnt have control of the final pricing. |
