Wait does this include the pack that guaranteed a new item from the Resurgence pack? O.O

It was unfair that Sony didn't allow PS3 players to play the first two events or have Resurgence packs, but it's also unfair to give all PS3 players the packs that they should have had to earn by achieving personal goals. Victory Packs would have been fine, those were for community goals, but not everyone on Xbox and PC got a commendation pack because not everyone "earned" them. Some of us who did earn them still haven't received them. Understand that this has nothing to do with me having anything against PS3 users, just the way this situation was handled.
So let me get this straight:
1 - This costs you nothing
2 - Because MP is not competative, people getting something does not harm you or your game in the slightest
3 - In fact, PS3 players getting these packs will theoreticaly make them stronger for upcoming challenges thereby making it more likely that YOU will get rewards for teams completing extraction
4 - Yet, you see the need to complain
Really?

I know that you and I have had some rocky times in our relationship, which is based on love and hate, but this really rocks! *Happy dance* I can't wait to come home from work and open my packs :-)

Put it this way, if you released a squad challenge that said get a full extraction from Firebase Condor against the reapers on gold, people put the time and effort into unlocking the pack for that squad challenge all weekend, and then you released them to everybody, regardless of whether they completed the challenge or not, the following Tuesday, people would be upset. That was an awfully long sentence, but it illustrates the basic point. In that scenario, your four criteria would be met, but it would still be fundamentally unfair to those that put in the effort.Chris Priestly wrote...

Now, I'm not saying this is as drastic an unfairness as that, considering 1) the squad challenges weren't that difficult and 2) the circumstances that prevented PS3 users from even participating, but I think it's a bit of a stretch to say that there isn't at least some degree of unfairness here. Whether it is a trivial amount or not is another matter. It probably is (I mean, even if I was really upset about people having things they didn't earn, I'll never play a single match with a PS3 user from my 360. So meh).

Again, how on earth does this matter? Why is it unfair? You played a video game and I hope enjoyed doing so. Now someone who could not take part previously, is getting something that again doesn't cost you anything.
We didn't ask you to build a pyramid or dig a ditch or write an essay. And even if we did, they couldn't have taken part in doing so as they were at the time precluded from taking part.
I fail to see how people can justify their sense of entitlement here.

3 - I don't play on PS3 so them getting Commendation Packs in no way helps me get my own, so that argument is completely ludicrous. Everyone knows we'll get the Victory Packs every week for the community goals, those are easy.
4 - I'm sorry you can't see why some people might find this irksome, especially those of us who have yet to receive the packs we did earn.
5 - Enough with the emoticons. I'm not the devil just because I don't agree with all of your actions.

Person A is told they must do X to get Y. They do X to get Y. They then watch person B receive Y without having to do X. Person A is not feeling entitled so much as they are objecting to the entitled treatment of person B.Chris Priestly wrote...

As I said, I agree with you that you weren't asking us to write an essay or construct the next wonder of the world. I also understand person B, through no fault of their own, wasn't able to do X to get Y. Moreover, I'll never have to play a single game with person B at all. All of that makes me lean very heavily toward indifference; I'm merely acknowledging the underlying logic of those who feel sleighted somehow, even if I disagree that it was a sleight large enough to get upset over.

Really?
All your points apply on people getting items via cheats and glitches ... except cheating hinders your companys revenue from microtransactions.

TheRealDingo, you sound like you're a 'Strayan, like me. If so, you must be familiar with the concept of the Aussie Fair Go. We PS3 players have not had a Fair Go due to no fault of our own, but Sony refusing to take part in past Operations. It's like those farmers in western NSW undergoing severe drought and getting Government's drought relief money and tax breaks. Are you going to hate them for getting a Fair Go from the Government as well? If those ops were available on the PS3 some weeks ago, I would've taken part in them and done my bit. So stop being such a poo poo
