You could make an argument against the BPO's but additional 300,000 AUR and and 3x Active and Passive Boosters are quite nice to have. My intention anyways was to support the game and CCP, but unfortunately I had to go through Gamestop to do it.
To each their own, but from my perspective spending $150 on a F2P shooter on 8 year old hardware, with almost no available content to play, and a tiny shrinking user base is borderline insanity. I hope you make a good living and that $150 wasn't a big deal. |

The last time this happened (back with the original merc pack that was supposed to include a second set of all included items at launch) CCP's response was that (to paraphrase) "We can change the specifics of the deals whenever we want to whatever we want, so it doesn't matter," and that was pretty much the end of it. This isn't the first or even the second time CCP has just blatantly changed these deals to significantly change or even just straight up REMOVE big chunks of what we have purchased, and each time previously the majority of the CCP peanut gallery has cheered them along with "HTFU" and "Read the fine print, they can change whatever they want."
The reality is, sure, they CAN do it. But when you offer one thing, and then post-purchase change the offer to something significantly different and/or obviously inferior to the original product, you're burning bridges with your customers.
I mean, I already got burnt once, and it persuaded me to change my mind and not subscribe to EVE: Online (let alone ever pay another penny for anything in Dust 514) as I had intended to start doing before getting the shaft. It's not even really a question of legality, it's a matter of respecting your paying customers. |
