Do you have any future plans to allow Humble Bundle buyers to use Ration Seals, or do you just expect us to pay actual money? I was going to buy all of the DLC, but seeing as how I can't use Ration Seals to buy the cheapest DLC, I have changed my mind about the rest of the DLC. I'm sure I'm not the only one that's sorely disappointed in your decision to discourage potential DLC purchasers. That's a lot of money you're missing out on.
Update - Last night (Aug 20), after an hour or so on the phone (Use the "Call me" option, DO NOT USE THE LIVE CHAT OPTION UNLESS YOU WANT TO WAIT HOURS AND HOURS), they compensated me by basically giving me what basically amounted to the $15 gear DLC, minus an item or two, PLUS a few weapons that weren't in it. Unfortunately, the weapons are only good in the early chapters, and the suits are purely cosmetic, with the exception of an arctic suit that doesn't have that silly fur. If I could make my N7 suit cold-proof, I would. That thing is so sweet.
Anyways, they told me the Ration Seals problem is being worked on, and could take as long as 3-6 weeks. Basically, they're hoping people forget about it.
I have 176 seals that will not forget. That's just from a few days of playing. 3-6 weeks should give me about 836558421 seals.
So anyway, AT LEAST they're making an effort to appease players (those guns are pretty sweet in the early game, and make for some good Tungsten/Resources later on), but I still doubt they're gonna fix the actual problem.
I had this problem also, but when i searched what ration seals were for, i found out the same as you, it was to purchase with in game currency the Elite Weapons & Resources Pack, i already managed to buy 2 of those packs stacking a total of 60 ration seals for each pack but after i bought the second one i saved and quit a little while after, on chapter 12, i have 70+ seals and can't see the option in-game anymore like it just disapeared, and on the dead space 3 wikia (i know not all that's there is right) it said there's a PC version bug since August 17th 2013 so, 3 days ago that the option has the bug of disapearing but i think it is a problem from far before but i bought the second ration seal's dlc yesterday day 19.
If anyone can find an answer or please solve the problem would be great EA.

Same problem, and I'm not letting this die. It is NOT right to deny somebody the full extent of a game. Mk-V weapons can ONLY be recieved through these purchases, So I really hope they fix that soon, and hopefully not Soon ™
- 12 years agoI've got well over 300 ration seals and cannot spend them either. I hope EA fixes this quickly as its not fair to deny PC gamers access to this DLC.

Original post has been updated. Still doesn't look good for Ration Seals, but at least they're attempting to compensate for dicking us over.
