So if I bought the merc pack already, I'm going to have to put another $20 in to obtain these special suits even though I spent $20 in support of the game from the get-go. This doesn't sound right to me but maybe a Dev or GM can answer this question that plenty of players have. |

I have 4 already. Just think about the extra aurum and the active booster you get. Enjoy it! The MAG dropsuits rock! |

Are they going to nickel and dime us the whole way? $20/month is more than EVE already. Asking us to do it again and again before it is even launched is concerning. |

No one is making you buy it, if some colors on your drop suits get you off then go ahead. If not, well then the game is the same for you.

If you don't want the gear, then don't buy it. The game is Free2Play, the gear you are going to want is not however free. The value of the Aurum and Booster alone is more than the AUR you get from a $20 pack. Add in the extras and there isn't much reason not to buy.
TL;DR Either buy it or don't, quit whining. |

You get 4 level 1 dropsuits. That along with the AUR, the Toxin and skill boosters will set you for life.
I just have to equip the toxin and not have to spend a single ISK! |

Lol, it is like forcing me to buy a whole suit with tie when I just want the damn shoes. No one is arguing they can't do it. It's baffling that people just accept it as fine though. |

It was suggested the suits will be buy able with aurum.
valued at 6 USD total.
So if you bought an earlier merc pack spend the aurum and whallah 14 usd left over.

You choose to be early adopters..... you paved the way for the second offering.... or did you think the merc pack was going to be the only thing offered, what if they have an advanced bundle in the works that adds more than the merc pack for $40 or some sort of collectors bundle with even more goodies for $60. |

Except, there is no option to do that and no confirmation that actually will happen. This is why the marketing is offensive, not genius. |

No it is like launching it with a game you want, but only if you buy a brand new vita. To boot there is no information on if/when/where the game will be available elsewhere. If you are going to toss around analogies, don't make failed ones. |

it is not a new deal, it is the same thing we bought with more stuff added. A new deal would be " hey guys we got this MAG legend pack for 15 bucks. It comes with 3 suit BPO that are a new color scheme for tier 1 suits ( better then militia). get em while the gettin is good!".. this is not what we got however.. It's just principle, it's bad business. |

I hear ya man! I have been waiting for the next build for ages! I thought with all my trolling out here CCP would get fed up and just release it! But no! They got more crap to test!!! I have already spent $80 on this game! If I didnt do that and put in another $20, I could have got a 30 minute session with a working girl! Atleast that would have put a smile on my face! |

Even less relevant, the price argument. $20 means different things to different people. Nowhere did I mention the price was my issue though. Trolls be trollin'. |

It just shows it didnt pay to support early. I wont spend money now, I should have waited to buy this pack. Curse my desire to support dust early. |

I will forward this to a Dev or GM. |

Early adopters always get shafted, having said that I paid $10 for the ld merc pack when it was on sale (great deal everyone should have grabbed one) and am going to drop another $20 on this new merc pack.
Now am I a lil miffed that I won't get these suits without forking over more doe, a lil, but I also understand the principles of capitalism and see why ccp would do this.
There are MANY MAG gamers in this game, ccp has found a way to get more funds to produce a better game. If you don't like how ccp operates leave your wallets closed or exit from the nearest entrance. |

The new suits and stuff aren't listed in the PS Store description or the Dust interface. They do come with the merc pack add-on listed in the store, correct? |

What I don't understand is why people are complaining about this
You get 40k aurum thats 20 dollars worth which is what the pack cost plus a bpo smg a bpo scoot suit and various other items and then a bonus of 3 more bpo suits
They are only a temp offer but I get more of the above listed items its fair its smart just because you feel its not doesn't make It so
I hope the offer more by my next pay check |
