So they just released the anniversary bundle which is available until the 24th, which is this Sunday.

The contents of the bundle are here.

Is it worth getting? I reckon so. It's $40 all together and you're getting a 6 month boost that's worth $50 alone. Not to mention some gold trim ES rocket launchers and some fairly cool camo. Oh and a ton of weapons too.

Personally I'll probably not get it since I'm BR 100 already and I have 4000 certs unspent, so I don't really need the heroic boost nor do I consider the rest of the content worth the cost, excluding the boost.

I'm disappointed that the platinum Commissioner with the special gold livery wasn't included. That alone might have made me consider getting the bundle.

Tough one for me. although I took a lengthy break I am enjoying the game once again, well, for now at least. I am BR87, the camo doesnt look too different from Amerish scrub/Indar scrub mixed and I have both. The only thing I like is the gold RL, but I rarely use Striker unless in an AA role, I mostly use standard or decimator.

So, not so many pros for me personally.

yeah same here.
No need for Weapons/Boost.
I would not mind the Camo/Decal and Gold RL for fun...but i cannot justify spending 40.- on this.

Wow, I think this is the first time since the launch months that I've seen a bundle that I do not already own something from. Just found this collection of images of the camo [strike]http://imgur.com/a/72qHx[/strike] (this collection is apparently from a bugged version on the PTS - no other images available atm), looks rather nice. Yeah I think I'll grab the bundle.

Also I guess this confirms an SC sale on the 25th then (that is also Thanksgiving right?).

Had I just started a new character and had nothing unlocked already this would be a great offer.

However most of the weapons I've already unlocked (at least the ones I use with my playstyle), and personally I don't think the +boost xp is really worth anything as I enjoy the game and don't mind that it takes time to gain certs.

I had the SC floating around, so I got it...the camo is nice, but isn't account wide oddly...At least I have the Phoenix and lancer now for my alts

I just realised that the image collection I posted is actually labelled as bugged on the PTS, not the actual in-game one, now I'm sad.

Edit - Word has it that if you buy the bundle from the online store (link in the first post) you get the boost camo and decal on all characters, so it may be best to buy from there anyway just in case they don't include the boost in that hotfix Senond mentioned.

BR85 with about 8 weeks worth of XP boosts banked....I reckon £29 for 6months is just about worth it for me...the weapons I had the TR ones....but hey, it's free gear effectively.

The weapons are the Jaguar, TAR, and Rams-50 which are AMAZING guns! very nice prick from SOE there imo. I sadly have them though, so its not really worth it for me :(. SOOOOOO wish the Jaguar was a Golden version or the TAR I would buy it in a heart beat.

[quote="YamiNoTenshi" post=25345]Would prefer a 50% resource boost, I don't really need more XP right now.[/quote]

I feel you! resources will be removed soon enough though, sooner than 6 months I would guess and so they are not including them.

To be honest Stubek, all the "rich bastards" who pay to win will already have bought all the boosts that are available, as well as a subscription and already will be BR100 by now. The rest are just going to be people catching up or new to the game and getting effectively the alpha boost that people got for free from the beta.
I would think the pay to winners are now just buying resource boosters so they can have more vehicles, grenades, etc.

The alpha squad boost wasn't free, you had to pay $40 for it if I remember correctly, with that you got into the beta, got a 6 month 10% XP boost (later turned into 50% XP and resource boost) one unlocked weapon for each class on each empire, alpha squad camo and decal and 4k SC.

Yeah Alpha Squad gave you the same value of Station Cash as $40 got you, plus all the other stuff. This bundle is priced the same as the boost (the last time 6 month boosts were available they were about $50) and then gives you a ton on top.
