Frontier Store promotions?

[Rygir]

So before the price change, every month or so there used to be promotions like ship skins 50% off and stuff like that. Have they annouced they will no longer do this kind of thing or something? I expected a summer sale or something and there is one but only the game's price has been cut, none of the cosmetic things on the store as far as I can tell.

If that's the case I suppose it's a good thing, it's cheaper now then it ever was and not having to wait for sales is nice.

Prices change in cycles. Today the game is cheap, tomorrow it will be something else. Check the store frequently and subscribe to E: D on twitter.

I go look at the stuff and just utterly laugh my off. Hard to believe they charge for what should be ingame as options. Just another reason to stay away. Amazing.... for so little. Hard to believe anyone with any intelligence would purchase the stuff.

No need to insult just because your opinion differs to ours(the dumb dumbs who buy from store)...

I buy it. I have a Bsc(hons) MSc and a PhD. Now who is it with no intelligence?

I've purchased quite a bit of stuff from the Elite Store, and I consider myself to have some modicum of intelligence? :S

I bought stuff from the store and I have a PHD (post hole digger). It's kinda broke though.

Nah man, we just have decent jobs, so we have spare income to toss around on fun things.

Anyway, away from the troll (actually, I can block people right? I'm just gonna start blocking people like him who don't even play yet still post for attention) and back on topic:

I don't recall FD saying anything specific about not having any promotions, but I think the permanent discount is a pretty decent trade off.

 

[yodajedifishmaster]

no, really just no. im having enough trouble getting rep and progress for imperial and federation promotions im not working rep for a shop too.

You should get that bad case of narrow-mindedness looked at.

 

[Spiridon]

In financial matters FD is all right by me. Game itself is neither cheap nor expensive, "pay once a year for a new season and that's all" is reasonable, little trinkets in the store are not expensive at all etc (but then again, as someone here said, I have a decent job).

But there's one thing that I find odd: they want us to pay them to test their game. Wut? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

That's the only objection I have regarding the money for ED.

 

[CMDR-AD]

I'd guess those rotating discount prices were just converted into the new, lower regular prices.

you're so obviously intelligent that i can't understand your logic :O

Plus you're like, uh what the kids call "old" and what the grown ups call "middle aged".
So financially you're as sorted as you're ever going to get.

I look at these poor kids in their stock skins and Inthink they look like NPCs.
What are they going to wear to their mama's funeral?
Going out on a Saturday night still dressed in their Tuesday overalls.
No pride.

I buy stuff.
I have been described by my wife as a genius. And I have been married 26 years, so that must be good, eh?

I purchased loads from the store, so by your reckoning I must be as thick as pig do do...

 

[dognosh]

Can't stop loling
Ok guys, stop it, he got the message, he won't be silly again......

 

[Gunnet]

Since most of my store purchases go something like "woke up this morning and decided to fly a new ship, guess I'll buy skins for it right now", I'm quite happy with the constant lower prices rather than sales which I wouldn't wait for

 

[dognosh]

Same here
Made loads of dosh in Guardians mission repeats, so fully fitted cutter, then got really disappointed there wasn't a kit for it in the store

I buy add-ons because I want to support the devs. game sales themselves will not support the development of the game. put you hand in your pocket tight wad
