I made a nifty steampunk costume for one of my toons, and then the game crashed while I was zoning and I can't log in that toon anymore. (but I can all my others.) I hope that doesn't indicate a bug in the pack!

As always, Latin America cant buy because of the incompetence of the retailer, LEVEL UP GAMES, and the stupid IP Block.

Sometime later I will contract a cloud-computing network service and buy this by bypassing the IP block.

Those packs are getting expensive... Have to pay more than 50$ to buy one...

I'm curious what they're counting as 60+ new costume pieces, unless they're counting the same piece multiple times - like the two boots across all lower body options = "30 new costume pieces!"

And still the "steampunk" armor looks painted-on, plus still missing matching boots. Son, I am disappoint. Now I wish I had got on test to peek it before buying instead of rushing to the store on trust.

Where are the new ladies corsets located? I haven't been able to find them in the costume listings.

I mirror other sentiments about ladies getting the new long coats, but more importantly, I was hoping that the little jumpjet used for the Steam Jump power was a new wingless option for a flight-based costume piece. It was, however, nice to see the new rifle added for use for Bots MM's since they have very few options.

Did they fix the costume pieces so they're color customizable?

I got and I can see the possibility in this. I wish all the trim wasn't gold or there was a "Gold/Silve/brass" option.

Also, the Steam Jump is pretty awesome!. 30 seconds of use and 30 seconds of recharge time is amazing!

Could we get the Jump Pack Brought in line with this? They have the exact same stats. Except maybe the level you can get them?

Well I don't usually post here, but wanted to chime in on this. Bought it and it is pretty nice. Some comments that I have with it are:
Coats for the ladies
Hair color option
Jump pack as a costume part for flight or jump
Rifle as an option for Arachnos Soldier (was really suprised by this one)

That is what comes to mind at the moment. Thanks to the team for the work, and keep it up.

I like what I see in this pack. I really wish the game design direction would take a turn away from Incarnate stuff, because the new costumes almost make me want to play around with new characters again.

It took me a while to find this for my wife. The corsets are actually chest details.

However, the buy pages also lists Leather Bustier (The bottom half of the Leather Bustier chest piece?) and I have been unable to find it at all. Drove me nuts till I just threw in the towel.

There really needs to be clear details on how to find the pieces in this pack and future packs. Maybe an email explination sent when its purchased.

was going to buy - but I'm really frustrated with the new account security 'features' - that have now locked out my primary (of4) accounts because I couldn't recall the exact syntax of the address i gave them almost 7 years ago. what a wonderfully customer-friendly system which was clearly made necessary by - - - wait, are we having security issues here now?

Please remove any hard-coded colours from the new costume pieces. Yellow decorations and grey hat hair are extremely limited use of these art resources. Unless I have a yellow character, I can't really fit bright yellow buckles into it, and yes, people have been known to use costume pieces outside of the original intent. I thought that was the whole point of having a flexible costume creator.

The UK price on this News page is wrong, it reads: $9.99 / 8,99 € / £12.99.

It's pretty good. It needs a bit of work, but it's got an excellent basis for the auras, costume pieces, etc. See some previous opinions for some of the disparities between M/F costume items, baked in color sets, etc.

The decor aura alone makes the pack worth it. Damn pretty, that.

Agreed, but I doubt this will change. Seems to be getting worse with each pack. From what I can tell all that matters is that they get you to buy the pack, so it only needs to look good on the site and in the video. Notice how all of the characters only have white shirts and sleeves. Hmmmm I wonder why that is, didn't notice it untill I bought the pack and started fiddling around in the costume maker and I couldn't get the colors to match from shirt to sleeve...!!! So I went and looked at the pics again and sure enough white shirts, white sleeves.. SLOPPY

Not quite; Steam Jump also recharges faster than the Jump Pack.

Also, if you like the Steam Jump effects clicking Jump Pack before Steam Jump expires extends the length of Steam Jump instead of taking over from it.
