Here are the differences between the original Merc Starter Pack

  1. 15,000 more credits
  2. Two ELITE Loadout Cases
  3. 10$ Higher Price

PROs
-Great for new players!
-
Decent price point for the content.
-The 50k credits are essentially another merc

CONs
-20$ of the value is in credits/cases. 2 Elite cases is normally 5$ and one 10$ merc is 50,000 Credits. The cases are RNG, so it isn’t a true measure of value anyways.
-Definitely not worth buying if you bought the original Merc Starter Pack. Very obvious to see that with the duplicate mercs.

Coming down to prices, you still save money if you own 3 of the 30k priced mercs or one 30k merc and fragger ~ That is if you intended to buy 2 Elite Cases anyways.

I am very disappointed and confused to see the exact same mercs from the previous pack. This immediately limits who will benefit from the deal and makes it so anybody who already invested in the Merc Starter pack lose money with this offer.

@MissMurder Do we have more packs on the way soon or is this it for awhile?

Personally, I am without Rhino, Kira and Nader. Currently saving up credits, but I haven’t decided which one yet. I’d rather invest as little as possible into content and put the money I don’t spend there into cosmetics just to encourage the cosmetic business model over of the locked gameplay content model.
