    Who here is happy they're giving away stuff that some of us paid for?

    I assume that not many if any people bought the Santa Muerta vehicles because they are now giving them away in the weekly challenges. But how long before they give away stuff that a lot of people did pay for? How does that make you feel that you paid money for something and then a little while later it is a reward you could have just waited for. Also what do you get when you already have the helicopter and the bike and the truck from the Santa Muerta pack? I bought the military vehicles for the camo hummer and the Inca pack for the Trophy Truck. But if they start giving that away I want my money back.

    I think it's okay to give away pre-order bonuses after a while, but paid DLC: nope. @Ubi: care to comment on this?

    That I agree with. I would love to play the Unidad missions that were given away for playing the BETA version.

    I am the complete opposite of this where I think that exclusive items available for a limited time should remain so however DLC addon content which remains available for purchase can essentially go on discount (100%) whether it be limited time, forever or for completing a task.

    I feel cheated. I paid real monies for these things, and UBI comes in and says "Ok, so we already got that monies. But we need more monies. Make some of the paid tat free so if the disgusting tards need some cheap reward to work towards, just give them the old crap."

    I have no problem with people getting virtual stuff that I paid for, for free.

    If I like the game enough to buy DLC (which is usually stuff that 15 years ago would have been included on the disc for free), I basically view it as a donation to the company for making a good product.

    Agree with you completely on this. Especially with the prices Ubi is charging for these.

    I'm happy. I bought some stuff over the store too btw.

    Besides, it's not exactly a give away. It is locked under certain requirements (Seasonal Challenge) and ONLY achievable within a limited time, which is a week.

    Meanwhile, the buyers got it earlier, faster, and able to get it anytime.

    Fair deal to me.

    I will only complain when I bought the items and then suddenly they remove the pricetag for everyone can claim it for free forever.

    I bought a Xbox One for £400 when it came out and now they are £200. All things de-value over time and if you are daft enough to pay money on silly nonsensical items then that's your problem.
