Is there no way to earn Fight or Flight event packs?

Ugh this again, if you don't like the prices don't

Pay. Why is this such a difficult concept?

@apostolateofDOOMI still stand with what I said. The game needs to make money somehow. Last event they charged you extra for the heirloom. This event you get the heirloom for free along with 24 other items that legendary and epic.

How do you suggest they make money out of this game or do you think EA just funds them because they enjoy the game themselves? Right. Sure the pricing is still a bit too much but they are getting better at it.

Fortnite charges $22 for a skin pack that just includes 1 skin and a backpack.

If you want a game where you can earn your cosmetics for free and everything else even during an event, go play a different game because Apex won't and shouldn't do that.

@apostolateofDOOMYou've yet to bring up a reasonable price so I ask before you respond again with the same argument as before, what do you suggest they price their event items at?

Player can earn items through BP purchase which could be bought once and done, a mere $10 for a forever BP where they can get a free legendary item with the accumulated CM.

I'm glad you understand this to be a f2p game and therefor should understand that Respawn does not owe the players anything and may choose to price their items where they think it is reasonable and we just have to continue to remind them that $20+ is not so reasonable so they may adjust.

But again, it is f2p and thus you should not expect them to just give out free loot.

And to the first part, instead of having to pay $200 for all items + heirloom, you now spend $20+ less so its clear they have adjusted their pricing and even with the 2 free event packs, you would still save $15. The one problem that the event packs had was no guaranteed legendary which gave me two epic items that were not so great. I'd rather earn 2 legendary items than take my chances on the random again.

EDIT

Let me remind you again that Respawn has put out a free 2 play game and thus owes nothing to anyone and the cosmetics are there for them to gain money back on this game so that they can continue to push updates and make the game more enjoyable. If you do not like the way they price, continue to post about it but keep in mind, you have the choice to not purchase anything and still play the game. 

There's this "little" f2p game called Warframe that sells gorgeous player made skins for $6.99usd and it gets better!  You can both see your player skin, since it's a third person shooter, and they share some of the cost with the creator, amazing.

@xXCA_RageXx i totally agree there but tbh as much as i enjoy the game and like the skins i cant help but think its better to just not bother buying any of it since its obviously priced so ridiculously high and just spend your money on games that don't overprice cosmetics so much. I know anyone can say that but tbh its genuinely way more worthwhile to do imo.

@Killtheism Warframe is an absolute masterpiece (if not buggy). Not to mention all the plethora of visual customization. Genuinly think nothing comes close to it in regards to fashion. 😛

@iBlockHeadits not that they aren't making money off the game its that EA are money grabbing Wh*res that see a price and say "nahh lets double it!" If they were to price things at 50% of the price they are now I guarentee they wouldnt loose out on all that money since people would be more inclined to buy more stuff because they see it's cheaper but end up spending more than they would have done had they only got that one skin they felt like they really needed.

TLDR: less is more

@iBlockHead  Reducing the price by 25-50% would be a good start including the pay for coin options which would need a change to reflect the actual cost and/or having the ability to earn through gameplay.

Heirloom prices are an abomination to most gamers so making a tiny reduction but keeping it at roughly the same price point won't make much difference in how a lot of players feel and you're right they should voice their opinion but lack of money and importantly players is heard louder.

Without free players this game will die a lot faster and all those that spent on all event items and heirlooms won't matter when hardly anyone plays it and it inevitably shuts down.

Respawn/EA don't price what they think is reasonable, it's for max profit at any expense and the argument of having a choice by not purchasing but being able to play is irrelevant when you chose not to play.  Because of the way monetization is implemented, crap/inconsistent server performance, hackers, updates that bring as many bugs as the content giving the game a feeling of being rushed and unfinished + events that exclude most people with the inability to earn anything though gameplay, I have chosen not to purchase and greatly reduced the time playing as many others have.

You're right they don't owe us anything but I owe them nothing either.

@Killtheism  Yes. Warframe is a nice game. But you fail to mention the market within the game. I played it very rigorously for a while without spending a dime and acquired some really nice Primes and companions through trades. Others spend some good money just to get their hands on them. Though this is all through player choice and not the company implementing sales. The option is there when they first release for a decent amount or one can grind for them. Which I have done.

@DandyRandyS  People take fashion to a whole new level in that game. If one likes that sort of thing such as I, it is definitely a game to get into. Should play it sometime again. But recently went back to Titanfall. It's been a year or so since I have played Warframe. Good thing my companions are in cryostasis. 😛
