The Cartel Market seems to be a winner for BioWare because just recently, they issued another game November of 2012 has brought updates to the Cartel Market.
The Spry Minds says best what a lot of players are already thinking: Why can’t I buy what I want?
Here’s a snippet from a post they did on this very topic:
In the someone else might want. Most of the time you don’t get either and feel like you’ve just wasted your money.
The only other way to get those items is to hope someone lists them on the daily missions for credits on a daily basis, you are out of luck. Also, if you want a piece of gear that is in an older Cartel Pack it may be very hard to find it on the GTN even if you have the means of purchasing it. Since there is no option to buy it directly from the Cartel Market you’re stuck gambling with Cartel Pack purchases.
What’s the beef then? Well, they’re option to buy a chance at getting your item.
Obviously, this is frustrating to players. It comes off like a scheme for more money… whether Players are saying “Just let us buy what we want!” We’re willing to give you our cash but let us choose what we get with it.
The gamble of the Cartel Market is frustrating to many players because it’s really lacking in value to the customer. The odds are not in favor of us getting the rare or super rare items. We have to buy these packs and hope we get what we want. It’s frustrating for many and you can really rack up a lot of money spent trying to get the items you want.
So what do you think?
