What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Trying to give you money
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? None, trying to give you money
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 09/08/2021 7:15 EST
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? I cannot purchase the recently released octane bundle in the store because I own the hemlock skin already and the bundle is "locked" because of it. I should still be able to buy it!!!!
What should be happening instead? I should be able to buy the recently released octane bundle with a discount since I own the hemlock skin which is an item in the bundle. I do not own the octane skin, and I REALLY want the bonus octane only apex packs. This definitely cannot be how you meant to set it up.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Simulate trying to purchase the bundle with only the "gradient descent" hemlock skin unlocked.

I cannot purchase the recently released octane bundle in the store because I own the hemlock skin already and the bundle is "locked" because of it. I should still be able to buy it!!!! I do not own the octane skin and I really want the 2 octane only apex packs. DEVS PLS HELP ME GIVE YOU MONEY!

    I’m sure you meant to be helpful, although I think your post falls more under comedy. Read over the sentence you wrote carefully if you don’t understand.

    Edit: lol it censors on my post but not his

    There was an issue with the way these bundles with character specific packs were coded.  This issue has been resolved as of this morning, and if one wants to buy the current Octane bundle in the store, they will not be locked out of the bundle for having already unlocked Octane, or other items.

    This is still an issue with the torrent pack! Really silly.

    @pandareno1999 Actually, in both cases (I also cannot purchase the Torrent Loba Pack in the shop right now because I have the R301 skin), I only had the weapon skin that is included in the pack, which in turn forces me to not be able to purchase the pack.

    It is saying that I cannot purchase because the weapon skin is the "core" item of the pack.

  • Same issue with the halloween bonus bundles that are out. Apex just wont take my money its so frustrating.. 

  • @EA_Atic 
    any news on whether this will be changed or not? Its still an issue with the halloween bonus bundles i cant buy them because i have a gun skin thats in the bundle
