I guess no one is considering the amount of resources people have been over using due to the game being broken.... Thanks for selling us what should be give as compensation for the game being near unplayable at times for two weeks.
Well, the issue isn't fixed yet and not everyone in the game is experiencing it. Plus offers are coded way in advance so no matter the state of the game, we would have gotten this offer anyway.
I'm sure we'll get a comp package as well. But no matter how you try and spin this, this is a solid offer.
The part that bugs me is that this most recent comp package had zero normal revs or pots, and then they immediately put up a bundle for sale. Though the offer may have been in the works for a long time, the comp package seems like it was likely adjusted as to not dissuade folks from their purchase. Kinda busted imo. Trying to get money from us when they know we need that stuff to play right now.
Or maybe... just maybe... the last compensation was focused purely on AQ, hence everything was related to AQ. Maybe.
It also could be because they announced they would be sending out an AQ compensation in the News and Announcements section of the forum too.
A general compensation package will likely come after the issues are resolved and will also likely have regular questing items in them too.

Well....if you read the in game message, you'd have had your answer by now.
Yeah my bad, usually when somebody does a thing for less than altruistic reasons they make a point to tell everyone that and not cover their butts at all. I know what the messages and posts say, its just a weird coincidence that the first package was for a broad range of game modes, then the second is arbitrarily targeted for aq while rolling out questing bundles. Just rubs me the wrong way. Not sure why that warrants condescending snark but I guess I am on the forums.
Sigh..... You started with the snark on the comment I quoted. Offers are planned ahead of time. Way ahead of time. They're part of the game up update that we download every month. There isn't some employee at Kabam HQ pushing a button for offers.
The first initial offer had more in it because people were caught off guard with the issues and started content not knowing. Most people know there's an issue with parry so going forward with any content while there's an issue is on them. They gave us more AQ stuff because they're going to continue with AQ and want to help alleviate any spending that might happen. You have to understand that not everyone is having this issue either. There's a ton that find this offer valid and can still play the game normally.
We won't see any other comp for the issue until it's resolved which is normal practice like we've always seen.

Still might get the energy ones just so I can be less diligent with EQ. Free extras, yay.
