Well this is unexpected; I just checked Steam out of idle curiosity, and their MPQ HP & ISO bundles are 25% off until 2nd of January!
I did not consider them good value before (at normal price the 2 lower bundles are more expensive than buying the equivalent in-game), but how about now?
UK prices - only ones I can see, but would be community spirited of someone in America to post $s:
New Recruit Pack = £5.24 for 600 HP & 1,500 ISO vs £2.99 for HP & £2.99 for ISO in-game.
Avengers’ Battle Kit = £22.49 for 2,900 HP & 8,000 ISO vs £13.99 for & £13.99 for ISO in-game.
Nick Fury’s Doomsday Plan = £56.99 for 8,500 HP and 25,000 ISO vs £34.99 for & £34.99 for ISO in-game.
So; you’d still be paying for ISO in each case, not getting it free on top…
Oh well - worth monitoring in case there are even greater discounts for 24 hours some time this month.
Unless you really dont have time to play or want to power level, I think most people can get by by buying some gold for recruit space.The iso8 cost ratio is especially atrocious.
I did bought 5 dollar worth of HP for recruit space once since my cover almost expired, but this sale just doesnt entice me.For big spenders however, they sure will love this.
Not really a great deal.. Basically still paying $10 for only 8k iso. 50% off these packs would have been a great deal, they’d basically be throwing the ISO at you for free.
That was the scenario I was hoping for, or at least only pay 10% of 25% of the ISO cost.
Hope springs eternal - half the Steam sale tradition is watching for the discounted items to become really discounted items at some point.
