It’s doubly unfortunate because, given the number of people that are turned off by the sticker shock of the large bundles and who have expressed their interest in buying content a la carte (or at least in smaller bundles), I’m confident that WG would make much more in overall sales if they didn’t insist on following this manipulative sales strategy. Once again, choices are being severely limited to try to extract more cash from the playerbase. It’s very disappointing that none of the feedback given in regards to the last two collaborations was actually acted on (big surprise there ) and this collab is even less consumer-friendly than the last in many ways (for example, the last collab had First, Second, and Third Wave bundles to give players more options without whaling for everything or gambling in crates). With the coupon the camo costs 3900 doubloons, but you get 5100 doubloons of compensation for it from the aforementioned bundle, meaning you can save yourself 1200 doubloons. If you only plan on getting the new content, not including the new clone ships (seriously, a tier IX free XP ship and a tier III that can’t be used for any missions?), make sure to use your coupon on the New Jersey camo before purchasing the Fourth Wave bundle. With the exception of the Avrora bundle, the duplicate compensation means you’ll end up with an extra 10pt commander of your choice for an extra 320-620 doubloons, with the tier IX bundles offering the lowest “price.” This may be more appealing than spending 1625 doubloons on a container (35% off) and rolling the dice on what you get. If you don’t have any of the ships and are planning on grabbing the Grand Armada bundle, consider using your coupon to pick up one of the ship bundles first. Yeah, the fact that you can only use it on the smaller items is kind of scummy. You can use it in combination with the duplicate compensation on a few bundles to get some slightly better deals in a few circumstances, though. ALSO you can't even use the coupon on the big bundles, which REALLY sucks. Now for the commemorativ e flag issue.I just don't see how I can justify it, yet.
