"Return" of phoenix squadron bundles? Well they don't!

PoederAmon

Here I was all happy clappy that I could buy another 25 Sabine shards, because well Sabine ofcourse!

Turns out that all bundles I didn't buy re-appear, while Sabine remains absent. No update, revert update and update again didn't change a that.

Here's a tip CG guys: if I invested in a toon that isn't farmable, I probably invest in it again. If I don't invest in a toon, I probably never will!

Now let me buy Sabine shards again!! I want to spend my pocket money!!!

Was it the $ bundle that doesnt re-appear?
Cause these are usually 1-time purchase only!
Crystal bundles are re-purchasable

PoederAmon

Yeah I know they are one time purchase per time. So when they say they will re-appear with a new timer I expect I can buy it again.

jackTHErandom

Rather foolish expectation, dont you think?
Could (and probably would) be considered pre-craft

PoederAmon

Well, would you consider the re-appearance of the packs pre-craft?
If I choose to spend 50 euros on crystals to buy packs get me the same amount shards at the very least...

Kyno

Yes but they want to boost crystal sales, those $$ packs are always one time purchases.

I think many people agree they would buy those again if they cam up, but they want people to gamble in the crystal packs and not get any of the extras.

OP has a point. Additionally, if there are chances for these 1 time packs to reappear, more people might buy them initially hoping they would reappear (and of course spend again).

Let us rise together for the Game Updates for 4/11/2017!

It's time to celebrate Star Wars!
[...] For those that may have missed them last month we’re also bringing back the bundles and packs to the Store for all Phoenix Squadron members. [...]

Well, I could've guessed from the description that they only returned for those who missed them, which means that if you bought it, you didn't miss it.
Still, I don't see how it hurts the game if players were able to buy an additional 25 shards for a toon. Especially since it's celebration week :-)

By the way, the real value of those 25 shards in any bundle is reflected by the farmable location a toon ends up. 25 shards of a toon that ends up in GW or Arena Shipments have less value than 25 shards of a toon on a 9-D hard node location, while a cantine node or cantina shipments are something in between.

Not saying this game should make sense, am long past that, but I am saying that it would be nice to receive something extra once in a while in terms of guaranteed shards/stuff.

I would love the bundles to be multiple purchases. However they haven't been in the past don't see that changing.

Well, we haven't seen a "return" in the past, so this would have been the perfect timing to change things up. Sadly they didn't :-( The "C" in CG must stand for Conservative, lol

Meh. We see lots of packs return every time an event that calls for them appears.

As pointed out above they returned for this who "missed" them. So if you bought it you didn't miss it.

We have a "Return" Right now and also have one every time they rerun the Yoda and EP event.

You're right.. my bad. I guess the fact that it's multiple bundles made it more obvious for me. Seeing the bundles from phoenix toons i don't care about and missing the bundles from toons I do want to buy again.

But you're right, I could have figured this one out long time ago...
