    I have the 3600hp "DEAL" and mine has the same covers but has 4 Elite tokens 10K ISO and 3CP  maybe that is the difference between the 2500 and 3600 options??

    I only get the option that's 3600 HP. It's a good deal.....if all the covers will help your roster. The 3-stars will just be champ levels for me, so the only thing out of it that I consider truly valuable is the 4-star cover. But even then, you can't expect me to blow that on a cover that's currently already in the vaults, and will be there now for quite some time. It'll only be for covers that are vaulted, and on people that I'm only a cover or 2 away from finishing. 

    Just so we're clear, this is obviously a money grab. If you're in the same boat as me and mostly just care about the 4-star cover, then the option to get 5 pulls out of the limited character vaults for 1K was much more efficient. And with 7 days to try, very rarely did I need to try more than twice to get those covers (which is still less than 3600 HP).

    I purchased it this morning as (at the time) I was the only one in my alliance it showing as 2500 HP, everyone else was 3600 HP. Now, some people had stayed at 3600 HP, but adding four elite tokens to the already existing covers. Other changed to 2500 HP, but instead of four named 3 star covers, it's changed to four elite tokens. No two people in my alliance have the same offer. All very strange...

    Why do they have different costs for different people?

    It's 3600 for me, but 2500 for my missus. 

    Is this a completely arbitrary and unfair difference as you do player unfriendly testing?

    Or is this a VIP perk? (She's VIP and I'm not).

    I can't imagine this being a good idea unless you need that 4* cover to complete the champ, which would be incredibly serendipitous. 

    The deal I got was Danny Rand and some named 3*s. since I have all 3* champed and based on the "only the latest 12 4*'s from legendary rolls", I'll be overburdened with Danny Rand soon enough. I would have to be a moron or excessively wealthy to buy this.

    Hulkbuster Red is tomorrow.

    If you buy, it let's you see it early.

    My better half, who can purchase this for 1100 less Hero Points than me for whatever reason, grabbed this and showed me after she got this pack.

    They are priced differently because they have different contents in the bundle, which has been stated numerous times throughout the thread.

    Either different for the various ranks, or there's been a change since some of those posts.
    (Shield Rank: 65)


    I got the same offer as Tee.  I only got the one offer in my HfH Store.  Am I to understand that some people were actually given multiple offers?  Strange.  As others have said, I don't understand their "Offer Testing" - Seems to me they should have made all offers available to everyone (possibly with a note that if one is purchased, the others disappear).  >shrug<

    I can see myself buying a needed 4* cover from the HfH store for 2500HP, possibly.  Very maybe.  Mostly no.  Definitely not at 3600HP (even with the added goodies).  And, at this point, only with in-game-earned HP, because I'm currently boycotting spending money on the game due to the recent changes (Vaulting, OML Nerf, etc.) and bugs (Oh so many, and growing!).

    Suggestions to get me to buy:

    • Lower the Price.  I get that 2500HP was a cover price pre-CP, can be purchased even if previously unowned, and this comes with assorted extras, it's still expensive for a single cover to the no-longer-top-tier-characters in this game.  1k-2kHP would entice me more to spend even on a needed cover.
    • Offer Mo Bettah Extras.  My offer came with 4x 3*, 4k ISO, and 1CP.  All sort of "Meh" to me.  Really wouldn't add any flair or push me to buy the 4* cover.  For starters, that ISO should be at least 10-20k to even begin to matter, 30-50k for it to really be a worthy cherry on this sundae.  I get that $100 only gives 78k ISO, but that needs to change, too, as it's a CRAZY unworthy price.
    • Slow your Roll.  With so many new characters being constantly released, I feel compelled to save HP for Roster Slots.  If I had more HP it would seem less valuable, and I'd be more likely to spend it.
    • End my Boycott.  As mentioned above.  If I felt free to purchase HP (which I had in the past), I'd have more of it, and again more HP, and be more likely to spend it.  In other words, "fix" your game to get my cash.

    This addition, on top of all the other bad changes to how we get covers, just feels like desperation. I'm getting concerned as to how they make decisions, and if this is indicative of, or will cause, a declining player base.

    seems to be another difference but  I don't know if it is platform based.

    On my Ipad I have the Danny offer for 2500HP but that is it

    on my friend's iPhone he has the Danny offer and 6 more offers (he can switch between them at the bottom) all for 2500hp each (HB-Medusa- WarMachine-Wasp-GhostRider-Starlord). He can also see Moonknight that will be available in x hours

    We need someone from the company to clarify what's going on here 

    All packs are priced at 3600 for me, the variation on price makes no sense, 

    Hopefully brigby can get some clarification for us 

    Personally I'd like a refund of 1100 points as I didn't want the pack I got , my mistake though, I should have read it properly before purchasing

    Nothing clarify imo. We are beta testers despite what they claim. We will always be beta testers. And the price difference is entirely random per person. Don't see why people are working so hard to explain the different price sets.

    This seems like a good idea.

    *see's the high price of the small return*

    hahaha no.

    I HAVE spent money on this game before. 

    Having said that, I think everything in it is overpriced. 

    All of the ISO in the store is ridiculously overpriced. 

    I think 1000 HP for 4 star covers should be the norm.  I'd a VIP member AND buy more packs, roster, HP, etc. if the pricing were more reasonable. 

    This new "deal", to me, represents how far out of whack the devs value their prizes.

    It's $20. 
    I can spare $20 for a 4* cover I want.

    I would jump at the 2500 HP offer for the 13th cover of a vaulted 4* as I think it is a better use of resources than spending 120CP for it.

    Seems highly over valued. Gives you a 4* and some junk for 3600 HP.  What is that close to $40 if buying HP?  So for $40 I can get a 4* and so trash? No thanks bruh

    3600 HP is overpriced, but...  Hulkbuster, Wasp, and Starlord are all characters that I have at 5/5/2.  So I could see myself maybe reluctantly purchasing one or two.  Alas, all 3 offers are not the color I need.  ......Oh well.  Makes passing on it even easier.
