A) This is a subscription-based game. I don't support microtransactions in a subscription-based game, especially of core mechanics. Costuming and customization is a core mechanic. CoH has always used the vast amount of customization as a major selling point, and is the biggest aspect of the game that's kept me playing as long as I have.

B) Because, I feel I've been lied to on two different occasions. A long time ago (because Costume Customization is such a core aspect of the game) it was said they would never make purchase-only costume pieces. Then when they did start making the boosters, they said they would still make free costume options. Aside from a couple miscellaneous pieces, there's nothing new that's appeared. When I returned to the game recently after a 2-year hiatus, I was very disappointed in how few new costume pieces had been added into the game.

If the game was ever F2P, or if there were non-monetary ways of obtaining the boosters, I would not have a problem with them. One suggestion would be to have them pay-only for perhaps the first few months, then after that make them available through in-game methods.
