This is true we can only see. What we can do is use the information we have which is the total price point and compare it to other content they value at a similar price. So it needs to be nearly as good as:
- Two brand new, fully developed maps
- New escalations and unlocks to go with the new maps
- Two new sniper maps
- Four special assignments
- New cosmetic stuff (suits, reskins, etc)

We also know that you can purchase these separately at £4.29 each. Which means they are likely to be the same bit sized chunks since they are valued the same. They could totally throw a curve ball and have one amazing pack out of the 7. Sounds good? The scheme takes care of that since they’ve likely adjust the content amount to cater since that’s undisclosed. So basically someone else paid a portion for your content.
But it does mean there is a clear disconnect in what the seller and what the buyer deems value. How we are establishing the value is by IO’s price points over the course of 5 years. What CoD, GTA, Ghost Recon are all doing are dumping on the actual game to drive the MTX because they are so much margin, it’s worth it. IMO despite if sucessful or not, that’s all wrong.
Oh nah, it’s just that I had been speaking about it quite recently so I had the maths at hand.
It’s basically someone paying on your behalf. The concept of “free” for all (excuse the pun), is that it benefits the masses who fall into the bigger category of casuals. Those people don’t care for collecting everything and are happy to get the pieces of content they specifically care about. But the overall pricing of the content has gone up 120x versus the Season Pass era. Just S1 and S2 comes to about $1540 alone - insane for a AAA game you pay for. And then there’s all the systems in place but I digress.
Totally, I’d be glad to talk about this more.
Hey no it’s fine, we are all human we get heated sometimes it’s all good, sorry if I frustrated you
