Which means everyone (including myself) who purchased all bpo items before the price increase will lose those too. So those of us who created militia fits for cheap to fall back on....will be forced to spend $30 on one militia fit. Carry on trying to F uck things up people, you may just manage it. If the above happens, as much as I love dust, I'm done! That's a comment on how comical the AUR prices are, not how awesome early adopter discounts were. To be frank, bpos should be removed from the game entirely save the 4 default fits and EXTREMELY RARE prizes.
That ship has sailed and quite awhile ago, removal now either means A) Creating a new and deeper disadvantage for new players B) Taking away beta rewards, prizes, promotions and purchases from a lot of testers/players who've been supporting the game. (Note: it's not just taking away one of the above, it would require taking away rewards & prizes & promotions & purchases. All of them not used synonymously).
Either one is a very poor choice from a customer relations/PR perspective as it violates stability of the game and customer trust. You cannot conduct a successful micro transaction module if people don't know from one day to the next if their purchases will behave in remotely the same manner as when they were purchased, or even exist at all.
Non-introduction of said BPOs would have been a viable choice, removal is simply a terrible idea across the boards.

1. Give up a portion of your SP to refund your merc pack with the 30 day booster 2. Get the merc pack back without a booster. Maybe throw in a three day booster as a gift.
^This actually seems pretty reasonable. |

The game is already live. Do you mean launched? Or out of beta?
Maybe I've missed something, but I don't think they've said that May 6th/14th is the end of beta, have they?
Its when no one says "Its a beta" when **** hits the fan! CCP has given it a title "Uprising". Anything with a title is either a new build or an expansion.
Even the builds in closed beta had titles, this one is Chromosome, the last was Codex, etc. Naming the beta builds doesn't really change the context of it being a beta. |

Playstation Home? Oh yes, not me personally but there are people who've spent thousands of dollars on micro transactions there. For the record (last I bothered to check) Sony officially says it's in open beta. |
