Jay,

Its not clear. PGIs updates are often unclear due to the sheer amount of content they have to update and relevant information can often get lost in the sea of promotions, and other community postings.

What you are doing now is creating a justification for being a sh***y person.

You just shifted my opinion on Civil war escalation pack from "not buying", to "buying".

Now,,.lets see again which im going to buy..

[Mechaholics Anonymous]

Thank You PGI for the Premium Time boost, included with both the Civil War and the Civil War: Escalation Packs. Thanks as well for the recent events with tons of loot.

Why the switch from banked Premium Time, to activated Premium Time, with the release of these Mech Packs?

I would vote for banked Premium Time, with the release of future Mech Packs.

P.S. Another round of thanks for extending the Early Adopter Rewards, for the Civil War: Escalation Packs

Awesome to hear, Nice to see the Uziel...TO bad can not get a few screens of the others as well up >.>

Thanks for the return of the Premium time to packs. Even Active, it still returns a strong value for people to make a purchase.

Edit - I doubt anyone will read this, but I can already see what is going on in the minds of PGI involving the removal of Banked Premium with the purchase of a mechpack. Banked time adds a direct lasting value (until triggered for use) to an account. Think this over for a moment. PGI is simply assuring that this added value bonus for a customer making a purchase is made with the intent that the account holder USE it, rather than have additional value stored onto the account as a commodity of its own.

Thanks for putting back Premium Time in these packs, it is a nice touch.

I try to be nice, truly I do, but when something says it is expired and there is no indication whatsoever this is no longer the case, why would you even ask the question?

It's questions like yours that make me less inclined to be polite.

*Obviously new to forum person with 5 posts, at least 3 in this thread, asks a question*

*Vet decides to to be a condescending jerk about it*

Ahh, a tale as old as time.

Well I'm not gonna need to buy premium time til 2020 now xD...

[Kaptain]

Great move PGI. This certainly adds value and I am more likely to purchase a package in the future. Unfortunately I passed on Civil War during early adopter due to the lack/reduced premium time.

The more value you add the more likely people are to purchase. As someone who loved module inclusion and doesn't care about decals may I suggest you add war horns or ("pick any one/two warhorns") as a value add. Doesn't cost you anything and might draw in some more $.

[Saber Avalon]

Step in the right direction, but we asked for BANKED premium time, like the previous packages. Come on, do it right PGI.

[Genesis23]

damn, now i regret having jumped on the panic-train of the skill tree and thus canceling the annihilator and mad cat II pack. ah well, learned my lesson for next time.

[Black Ivan]

Bring back banked Premium time and put much more effort into development of FW. Then I might reconsinder buying a Mech Pac

[Reverend Herring]

Smart move, PGI =)

[zzoxx]

Great, i went full Uziel instead of std + hero because of this. Not that i need CB or PT ever again, just to reward the return of PT as part of the mech packs. It will be here to stay, will it?

[Bolter01]

Thanks PGI,
Damm that Uziel is Sexy Hot!!
