Didn't buy citadel packs and it turned many whales away from the game, or at least left a bitter taste in the mouth. People may be fooled thinking this is a better deal but let's look at the math.

Citadel packs you paid $20 for 10 shards, 5 Krennik and 5 DT.

Here you pay $10 for 5 shards of the character of your choice. But now there are 3 options.

In both situations you are paying $2 a shard.

If anyone is fooled that this is an improvement on pricing, I'm sorry. This is the exact same thing just put into smaller chunks. Was really hoping after the massive backlash on the citadel packs they would have dialed it back. Instead they ask "well what if we just package it different?"

Please do not be fooled people. If you were upset at the citadel pack, be upset at this. Cause it's the same thing

Yep, it's exactly the same thing. Which supports what I was claiming all along that they make a ton at this price point. If it failed before like people were claiming they wouldn't go back to it.

Yeah, just got 3 packs to try it out (for the first time) and only 3x 5 shards and 1 omega haha not worth it at all.

Nihilus is a good character but hes not some OP arena monster, plus he requires SithAssassin to be competitive, so you better be buying both.

EA Dev team, you do really good work on this game. The artwork, the game play, and especially character design over the last 8 months has been really good. The problem is your finance people are going to ruin your hard work, ruin your game. There is literally no reason to spend $1,000+ on Nihilus and Sith Assassin when they'll be released in three months. If your company is anything like mine, you have lots of meetings, meetings about the meeting you just had, and are hopefully discussing this issue. No matter how great this game is, no pixel is worth this cost especially when the cost only gets you about 3 months, we rent character for a limited time not owning them. Best Regards

I don't mind the pricing too much, I just bought enough to 4 star my Nihilus (clever marketing move to make us 10 shards short).

I do think the packs for the other two toons should be atleast half the price or even lower compared to the Nihilus packs. Then I'd have more insentive to buy them as Nihlus is obviously more high profile compared to the other two.

Thank you for reading this :smile:

darth n is a game changer in arena, so you pay a premium. If you don't realize that you haven't been playing the game long enough.

Krennic was supposed to be a game changer and nothing happened except cause some couples to attend marriage counseling after one of them dropped $1K on those packs. Nihilus is good but you need Sith Assassin too, Sith Trooper is optional, but there's enough in-game material that can shut down Nihilus.

I'm not convinced that he is so OP that I take that gamble

New packs are live I'm totally excited! I noticed sith assassin was being sold as well. Just out of curiousity has the stealth mechanic been patched and fixed over night or is it still broken??

I kind of love Nihilus. The animations are smooth, the abilities are excellent, and the special, when you can pull it off, is Special.

I've been free to play since the beginning, but the price of the new packs are reasonable, and needing only 10 shards to get to 4*s has convinced me to buy enough crystals to buy two Nihilus packs (well, hopefully I'll only need one, but let's face it, I'm getting 5 crystals per pack :smile: ) to get him to 4 stars.

So thanks to the developers for designing a really fun game and adding some really meaningful content to a FTP mobile game. I'm buying the crystal pack to support your excellent work over the past few months. /cheers

Not sure what happened to my thread :s

I'm loveing nihilus and am super excited about this new content the packs are priced quite fairly so +1 to that.
I noticed sith assassin is being sold as well. Just curious as to whether the stealth mechanic has been hotfixed overnight or if it's just on the list to be fixed as it has been for quite some time.

Thanks for the awesome new content
