Purchasable “Advanced Supply Drops” coming to COD: Advanced Warfare
The studio plans to roll out the update in the near future, allowing players purchase these drops from the in-game store in addition to earning normal Supply Drops through regular play. Here’s what’s guaranteed to be inside every Advanced Supply Drop purchased:
Three items
At least one weapon variant
At least one Professional rarity item or better
All items come with their own Armory slot; all items can be redeemed for XP
Also inside is the chance to score unique cosmetic gear only found within Advanced Supply Drops, including the Eco Custom Exo, items from the Arctic Gear set, and more.
Players will be able to purchase drops in bundles of three, five, and ten, with “certain bundles including bonus drops,” says Sledgehammer. Purchase quantities will be limited as the update rolls out, though that limit will be removed after a few weeks. Pricing has yet to be announced, but we expect more updates shortly.
Advanced Supply Drops will be sold individually, or in bundles of three, five, and ten at $1.99, $5.99, $9.99, and $19.99, respectively, according to Activision. Advanced Supply Drops will also be awarded to players at ranks 20, 30, and 40, as well as after reaching a new Prestige level.
While the introduction of micro-transactions in Advanced Warfare might sound ‘pay 2 win’ to the ears of many, Sledgehammer Games promises that “Advanced Supply Drops are optional and do not affect the balance of gameplay.” What are your thoughts?

ProJimmyRustler Micro transactions on a game that I paid $60 for is ridiculous to me. I have not problems buy DLC. Those are fine. They expand the game and make it playable for a bit more. However, I feel like they are defeating the point of getting supply drops if you can buy them. I think that Sledgehammers statement is false. It does create a slight mismatch in the balance of the game. Elite and special variants of guns have added bonuses (additional fire rate, attachments, ect) these make the weapon better in most cases.
Yet I bet you picked up the old CoDs. IE From Bo2 onward.

TetErza What a surprise all cod cares about is money that's why I play older cods all cods after bo2 suck
BO2 was the start of the bad line of CoDs.
>Buy Camoes
I feel the same way. Most of the games had a few bothersome things in it but BO2 really had a lot of shit that didn't belong.

CM_Punk_BITW bought one and got directly a elite item
Why would you buy them though? It's too much for one drop.
