In the last Twitch Stream the devs asked for feedback on whether the players wanted a separate ammo pack added to the store. As it stands now there is simply not enough elemental ammo in the field to run it on the majority of matches. This change would resolve this issue and provide the players a somewhat predictable stream of ammo should they want it. As always vote early and vote often  |

Wouldn't they need to fix all the problems with elemental ammo first? O.o

Uh, you're like a week late with this... and who knows if they are even capable of doing it any more given the MEA is dead (but maybe not completely dead) announcement.
Anyway I voted yes.

Nobody knows. They haven't been posting the Twitch announcement until late in their day Wednesday (so, like 6+ hours from now) so we'll see what happens today.

Sad that the most coveted booster is the one that allows you to have fun more often (by using your powers on shorter cooldown). It's almost like they should've let you have fun more often to begin with.
This has been a problem with Bioware games at least since Dragon Age Origins if not before. In DAO what was fun? Using abilities. But the stamina costs meant that the more you used them, the faster you used up stamina, so the faster you ran out of fun. Then everyone started looking for ways around that, like stamina-regen builds or hacks on PC. It's almost like they should've let you have more fun to begin with.

Could they not just make it so every pack contains an Ammo Booster? Advanced packs contain level 2 boosters, expert packs level 3 and so on?

I want more Power Efficiency Boosters! I have hundreds of unused boosters. Easily 25 of these Levels 1-3 I really only use them for solo runs to meet the daily challenges. I'll trade you 1:1 for ammo |

I would expect (total guess on my part) that if they provide a specific way to buy elemental ammo it would be removed from the pools of the other packs. (it only makes sense) |

Are you guys ready for the official announcement of Cryo Ammo packs? At this rate, if Bioware/EA were to announce some form of support for ME:A, I figure it will start with this. |

I'm sure you're right -- ammo packs will mean ammo gets removed from the other packs. Just like they removed useless sub-rank-X weapons from the loot pool when they introduced variant weapons!
Oh wait.

Considering the incompatibilities between ammo types & cryo/snapfreeze debuffs, hardly use any except disruptor any more. We need: *PHASIC* rounds! Would take care of sniper shield gate problems.

Voted to make it like the jumbo pack, wouldn't mind paying say 50% more for an ammo pack than a jumbo pack either, even if it only contained 5 ammo as I just really want something to prime with, cryosplosions are so cool!

What about a pack for mods? The MF to buy those are crazy! Or very hard to get when just starting with MEAMP.

Stuff generally drops in the order Characters, Weapons, Mods at any given rarity tier. So just keep spamming those packs.
P.S. The mods you can buy with MF, technically mod variants, do not come in packs and vice versa.

I was a little naive in my assumption. I pictured the pack would be located in store section with the other packs and not in the MF store. I'd hope it wouldn't be located exclusively in the MF store. We already have enough ways to spend MF at the moment. |
