New Premium armor/Weapon

[Abra⁧⁧cadabra]

Welp, seems so far that Arrowhead is gonna get a positive response even though there's a vocal minority saying they dislike the prices. I've seen the full armor, weapon, and title in almost every single game so far, with half the lobby or more having it.

yeah thats BS this fanbase hates itself. This stuff is worth 5 bucks at max, but if you buy everything I believe its 20 dollars or more, which is more than a warbond, with way less stuff...... Heck, warbonds even include Super Creds smh. If they keep doing collabs like this, seriously f you Sony/Arrowhead or whoever is about to streamline this new super nickle and dime DLC

It sucks because this easily could've been pushed back on by just not buying it and voicing ourselves. But there's always the majority who is silent and is just fine with being nickle and dimed 24/7. I mean just look at ♥♥♥♥ like CoD, "wow this game sucks" sells a ♥♥♥♥ ton still and makes money.

I think the main issue is that, for those that cannot/will not pay for the SC, the Superstore's timed rotations cause a rather intense feeling of FOMO. And it seem like after all the backlash they're probably considering the Superstore's timed rotations to be done away with. I personally think that, in terms of it technically being free, it's fine enough. But the real-world price equivalent is rather steep considering the game is the same price as the total estimated cost of the crossover (which is 4x that of a Warbond for the same amount of content). I imagine significantly less people would complain if it were a Warbond as people thought through datamining, or if the Superstore didn't have an artificial timer attached to it.

The CEO of AH Studios has been extremely receptive to the feedback/concerns people have shared on their discord. It's been admitted that the crossover items are selling well, but they're not happy that the community aren't happy with both the pricing and the time limitation of it. They admitted they fumbled, as Helldivers 2 is their first live service and that the crossover is the first they've ever attempted; they're never going to be flawless in what they do, nobody is, but at least they're seemingly willing to learn from it.

Here's hoping that changes are made to make the community happy while also not compromising the game's existence itself.

I hope so as well, I'm not mad at AH themselves per say, as they are a company, they're gonna limit test pricing and yadda yadda they gotta make money in the end. I'm more surprised at the players buying every last piece of the armor, like just the gun or just the armor maaaaybe, but these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ were cleaning out the whole shop.
