I'm assuming that "F1 2011 VIP Pass" is basically the online pass that will come with the game?

3600MSP for all weapon skins? Something CoD did for free? Rip off of the century. Looking forward to the game though.

I don't get why they don't standardize the naming for the weapon skins DLC. It just... ticks me off.

Also, the Haze skin was free for a short period of time yesterday due to a mistake. If I'm not wrong, buying any weapon skin will give you the Crimson Omen Lancer.

As for buying any weapon skin to get the Crimson Omen Lancer, I've not seen that mentioned anywhere. If you point me towards your source, I'll add it to the article.

Looking forward to the game though.You know it's a sad day when someone charges so much for something that CoD has free. I'm buying it though, just to have every skin available, because I can. I can afford to throw 3600MSP, and I'm totally willing to support one of my favorite developers for an amazing series.

Why is the gunstringer listed here? That was last week... Anyway yeah... i thought the 50 bucks for the weapon skin packs was riddiculous... Didn't I just pay 60 for the game? Bad enough you suckered another 30 out of me for a season pass thing.

Hey, if your stupid enough to pay $45 for skins for weapons for a $60 game, then ya don't deserve to have $45 in your pocket. Honestly, I can't believe that the most expensive DLC I can think of is for weapon skins.

The $50 (it's only $50 because of the stupid incremental payments for MSP, the pack is actually $45) weapon pack, yeah pretty crazy, but if people are willing to pay that and a dev can get money, why not? And $30 for 4 DLC packs? Most people seem to be fine with 800MSP per DLC, so this is a great deal in most people's minds - 600MSP per DLC

Honestly, I can't believe that the most expensive DLC I can think of is for weapon skins.I'm buying the pack. Not because I'm stupid, but because I can afford it easily and I would love to have every skin available. Just because someone has a different idea than you of what something's worth doesn't make them stupid, it just means they have a different opinion.
