Price: 160 MS Points. ($2.00)




EDIT: Okay, whoever edited my thread to completely erase its original intent about the displeasure with the pricing and turn it into a glorified advertisement, kudos. Make your own thread next time and don't put words in my mouth. Thanks.

LOL out of curiosty what did the original OP say?

2$ for 3 freaking outfits? Really? I rather throw those bucks out the window before supporting a rip-off like that.

I will walk under your window then

That's actually pretty disturbing.

Someone should set up a poll to see how many actually bought this...

[CrimsonDragon86]

It's...different. I kinda like Jack's outfit, minus the goofy glasses...but this wasn't worth 160 MS points. I could see 80, maybe.

Lol!

Did you by the Alternate Appearance Pack?

1. Yes, since I’ll buy anything from BioWare regardless of quality or quantity.
2. No, not worth $2 for 3 outfits with glasses that I cant remove.
3. I will not admit if I did or not. *Quickly puts on Garrus’s bad armor befor anyone notices.*
4. I’ll consider it when they release all the packs in one value price bundle later.

[Landline]

Meh, I'll probably grab it with points left over from buying the Kasumi DLC.

[Lethal_Liam]

Guys maybe I'm being a moron here but how exactly do you buy the DLC for PC? I go to the DLC site and it just directs me to top up my bioware points, but I have enough of those already. Where is the actual page to buy it?

[Lethal_Liam]

Nevermind found it

[massrock]

Can't buy them, i always get *fatal error (317)* page, i have no ideea whats going one.

No, the edit said the OP said something completely different. I just wanted to know what it was.

[Kaiser Shepard]

So the "New Content Available" option at the main menu will only go away if I actually buy it?
Fiendish, BioWare, fiendish.

[SF117]

I just went ahead and bought it. I had some extra points around that I can't really spend on anything else (besides avatar clothing/gamer pics, don't need or want any though).

Garrus' armor is cool. The new clothing for Thane and Jack is OK; I do wish the glasses and the visor were more transparent, but that's my only problem with those two.

Hope they get the other packs out soon. I mainly just want to see what Tali and Legion end up with.

The sunglasses rock in my opinion.

Not sure why everyone's complaining about them.

[Tobasco da Gama]

Where's my appearance pack for Shepard? That's what I want! I'm not a huge fan of any of the non-armour outfits for Shepard, so when I read the text "Alternate Appearance Pack", I got excited that there might be new Shepard outfits.



But, no. =/



I like Garrus' repaired armour, but that's not enough to get me to spend actual money on this pack. I do hope they do future appearance packs with new outfits for Shepard and maybe one that repairs Legion's gaping chest wound.

[Canderous87]

This is Biowares answer to the lack of Armor/Customization to the team by giving us 1 alternate appearance for only THREE characters, and they charge us? I wouldn't even have bought this if it wasn't for Garrus getting the whole in his Armor fixed. I'd rather pay for actual stat changing armor for each of my teamates to actualy IMPROVE their combat affectiveness. Instead all we get are reskins.

Why do they do this? They obviously are aware that people hate the fact you can't add or change the armor of your squadmates, and they think this was a good idea, and to top it off, they add a stupid ass cyclops visor to Jack and totally ruin her image, Id rather look at her sexy eyes when in convo not that ****** visor.

Totally useless gameplay wise and an insult to the entire gaming community.

The original title of my post was "The Alternate Appearance Pack isn't free? Seriously?". I forget what exactly the post said, it was just a few lines inquiring as to why they would charge for this instead of putting it free on the Cerberus Network since 1) This is pretty much the exact kind of DLC you would expect to get for free on Cerberus, 2) The pack itself is poorly done in the first place, hardly worth charging for, and 3) Releasing the Firewalker pack for free on the same day and yet the one they decided to charge for was the costumes really made no sense to me.

After the thread started blowing up with replies, a mod came along about an hour later and completely overhauled my original post by erasing everything I said and merely turned it into an advertisement that the DLC was available and stickied it. I'm surprised they didn't re-erase my new edit.

[Duncan1337]

I bought it mostly for Garrus' outfit.



I swear those glasses are so horrid. They are so cheap and thing looking. Cant beleive they degraded thane with those horrible glasses. WHY would he wear those?

[jase1976]

OMG! I've got a problem. Now whenever I start up ME2, at the main menu screen it says "Unable to authorize the DLC... Alternate appearance pack 1".. what gives?? I didn't have this problem at all until just now. Yes I paid for the DLC and installed it and everything was working properly yesterday. There is no way for me to check if I have the alternate costumes because i started a new career and deleted my old saves.. please help!

[trickfred]

I just emailed my wife, and asked her if she had any opinion on me getting the appearance pack, as she's a big Garrus fan, and her exact response was:



"Maybe, can you special request the tape moved from Jack’s eyes to her mouth?"



Bwahahahah! XD

To be able to give stat changing armor and outfits would require new code to be put in, as the original wasn't designed for their clothing changes to have any actual effect.  Just making the models was a lot easier and less time consuming - less work overall, and they still get money for it.

But I agree, give me some squadmate equippable armor and I might pay for that(assuming its reasonably priced)

i get the feeling it isn't going to sell well, solely because of those glasses.

I like them, and i'll buy the pack, but a lot of people hate them, so bioware, don't expect this to sell amazingly

Agreed. I actually like the outfits, but Jack's glasses look like they duct taped her eyes.
The glasses are gonna be their equivalent of our armor set helmets. There should be an option to turn it off.

[Spraymaskin]

I bought it, mostly because I like Bioware.I still hope that they won't sunk so low that they just spew out crap for the sake of making money, and that this dlc will have SOME kind of reason.
(and yeah the armors is not good, but its 2 dollars! I wiep mai **** w/ 2 dollohs)
If you get the last thing you will get ice cream in your mail tomorrow

160 MS points for three costumes.

Just to put things in perspective for the X-box 360 crowd.

160 MS points: One of The Resident Evil 5 costume packs (just one costume for 2 characters).
200 MS points: One of the Ninja Gaiden 2 costume packs (each contains one costume and 5 color variations).
240 MS points: I can get a avatar jersey from either Madden 10 or NCAA football 10
320 MS points: I can get one of the costume packs for Street Fighter 4 (each pack is for 5 characters)
400 MS points: I can get one of the Force Unleashed I can get 7 characters
0 MS points: Yes, for free I can get each of the 16 clothing sets Koei released for Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires.

Still worth it? That all depends on the person buying it and what they think is worth their money. Opinions will be based on what you like to spend for game extras. (I tried to find things similar but honestly I couldn’t find much or I ether had the items and couldn’t confirm the cost)

-I posted something similar in the Kasumi thread…
