New Low?

I had to look at those packs a few times before I realized they were serious. The Aurodium Resource Cache and the GL bundles are laughably overpriced. Clicking back and forth between the $99.99 Hyperdrive bundle and the gear from any of these and I just don't understand where CG is coming up with these numbers.

I bought the 24.99 pack, they both rolled to 10. So, yeah not buying the other packs.

The Hyperdrive Bundle is meant to look like an absolutely amazing deal though. To be fair you shouldn't compare it to any other pack.

These packs are terrible value. Why does it matter? They put out great/good value packs sometimes, most are debatable, some are bad. These are bad, don’t buy them.

I call this a F2P advantage. Let’s this absorb some of the spenders money without giving them any advantage ?

This, 100%!!! I have been saying this exact same thing in my guilds discord! This is the perfect way to get whales who wanna whale just because to spend money while not really harming the FTP or dolphin at all. Most people should be happy about these packs.

I completely agree with this.

A lot of people say how FTP unfriendly this game is and I think it’s the opposite and these mod packs just further illustrate that.

Also, this genius move, however questionable in nature and timing will keep this game going for another solid quarter or 2.

We FTP should be thankful for these packs.

I've been farming/purchasing thousands and thousands of mods over 2.5 years and have never seen a starting +6 secondary. Maybe in the old system but until this pack came along it's the first time I've personally seen one in-game. I've seen screenshots, but most people say they're "old mods". Like the double % primary/secondary ones too.

Guess I'll keep farming.

$75 pack during a time when a lot of folks are forced to stay home with no income....... very considerate!

Why would anyone buy these packs?

CG is again playing with the addiction of people knowing they want to have this 1 Speed advantage. You will need a lot of luck but there is the possible advantage to have one more speed than anybody else have...and in this case it (+6) is only available for money...this is p2w at its best...it would simply be not possible to reach the same level without paying money...ok there is a risk you will get nothing but some whales will be the lucky guys...and I think this is only the first step...others will follow...but nice strategy to do it in parallel with gift to keep the community calm...
