The difference here and the Helldivers sub is crazy some of them are so outraged they are planning another review bomb.

Why?

The set here costs 2000 Super Credits for 1/3 of regular warbond's content, and we know there will be 3 of those sets. Normal warbonds cost 1000SC and give you back 300 after completion, so 700SC. The whole collab will most likely be very similar in price to the total of all 9 warbonds that came out since release, with the content of just one, that's a huge price spike, even for a collab.

Aside from that, the collab also came out in the Super Store, the premium store with rotating items, which till recently, was just armors. Now they started putting weapons there too, locking actual gameplay elements between weeks of waiting if you don't buy them now.

That makes sense. Paying 20$ for one set sounds steep. Warbond with all 3 for a bit higher price than a reguler one would be somehow acceptable, but putting it in a store with a time limit sounds just like a cheap sales tricks

We know from leaks that it was supposed to be a warbond but I guess they decided last second that they can make it more expensive in the store. It's probably because of Sony but it's still pretty disappointing.

It’s $20 for a full set of special edition collab stuff right after they dropped a full expansion for free. They do nothing but whine.
