How long will the obsidians be available for now?


(frostyvampire) #1

Title.

I consider buying Aimee because, as you probably already know, I’m a filthy sniper main. But there is no way I’m paying 15$ for a PDP.
So I was wondering how long will they be available for? Will we get info about the new loadout system before they are removed from the store? Will I be able to combine it with my cobalt F82 in the future?

better get the all obsidian pack/ Obsidian season pass if you havent got any obsidian before.

considering it would be hella cheaper

  1. I only have about 20$ on Steam.
  2. I don’t play Phoenix and Stoker.
  3. I hate Hochfir, so even when I do play Phoenix, I wouldn’t use the obsidian.

Yes it ends up being cheaper, but I would only use 3 of the cards. I might consider it if another 30$ magically appear in my Steam wallet though :tongue:
Right now I only want the Aimee skin but it being a PDP kinda makes me want to retract from the offer. Maybe the Fletcher one too because I don’t have a cobalt A31

Well, the right move would be to let them permanently in the store.

But knowing SD, they’ll probably get them out of the store right before the new loadout system update.

Check out the video we put live talking about them. A PDP card is the only one available, however we let you know we have plans to change the system a lot which will give you much more freedom with Loadouts.

Sadly we don’t have more specifics to share just yet, but I’m sure you’ll be happier if you picked it up rather than not :slight_smile:

I’ll just wait for the last day before they are removed then to see if there is (hopefully) any info until then and then just buy it probably and use in casual for occasional trolling :tongue: (unless I end up spending the money somehow but I probably won’t unless there is a new game released that I really want to try).

But can we have the date when they are removed so I don’t end up missing it completely?

Btw
Since I already own all the mercs is the price going to be lower for the obsidian pack
And does it contain all future mercs as well.
Just want to know before I throw away 40 bucks.

I’m pretty sure that the obsidian pack only contains the 5 mercs you get the obsidian for. So only Aimee, Phoenix, Stoker, Fletcher and Arty

The All Merc Pack contains all current and all future Mercs
The Obsidian Operative Pack contains 5 Mercs and an Obsidian Operative skin for each
And the Elite All Merc Pack bundle contains both of the above

There are no discounts or refunds if you already own any of the Mercs in these packs

@frostyvampire
Yeah because in that regard the description for the elite pack and obsidian pack are almost the same
Could be bad translation in german but thx anyway.

I don’t know what it says in German but this is what it says in the obsidian DLC in English: “The Obsidian Operative Pack contains 5 Exclusive Obsidian Operative Skins, with their corresponding Mercs”.

And this is what it says in the all-merc DLC: “Get all current and future Mercs with the All Merc Pack”.

If u offer the merc with special edition like with guardians pirin pack and paid the $30 for the new merc free pack will we have to repurchase the merc to get the event card even though we atuomaticaly got the new merc???

@stayfreshshoe
Allow me to ask you a question: when can we expect the new obsidians to be actually identifieable from the originals (since the different loadouts will stop making a difference once you change the loadout system)?
Also: changing a symbol on the card is a bad joke at best.

Just imagine this: two players using the same merc with his obsidian operatives loadouts stand next to each other. You cant see their cards or weapons.
So how exactly do you identify now whos using the original?

The second gen “limited” edition has a pixel in the foot shifted by one pixel. :stuck_out_tongue: lol

They’re limited edition and once they’re gone, they’re gone!
Unless we decide money can be made by re-releasing them at a lower price.
You could say we lied initially, but hey we’re SD, and as long as we’re lining our pockets we don’t give two fucks what you mindless money bags think.
