    the gun package is a additional stuff or not?

    i see there were a gun package, assault rifle and sniper , is it additional content to the game( only available from purchased) or we can get it from gameplay(no any gun have to be paid real money to get it)?

    i check and most guns you can get it from the game itself, you have to own the 2 DLC, other than that i think is only 3 guns left that you can't get it trough the game itself

    what 3 gun have to be paid for owning it( or it's worth to pay for it)? i am just in at the current discount(ultimate edition) i only get 800c, but most stuff is so expensive to me, what is the most valuable stuff new player should focus and can we earn the C coin in the gameplay?

    thank

    Okay, so these packs are basically mostly full of bajillions of custom weapons with custom paintjobs that you can't modify. They are past denizens of battlecrates (paid by microtransaction) and current denizens of prestige crates (earned in game). I don't like them. You might.

    Each pack has a small number of customisable weapons as well. Some are from Fallen Ghosts---MDR, BFG, et cetera---you'll already have those if you have an ultimate edition of the game. Other customisable weapons include those from store packs (bought directly via microtransaction rather than gambled for via battlecrate), that's like the guns from Predator (R93 and M16) or the HK416 and LVOA.

    If you are planning to spend 3300 or 6600 of GR credits---whatever that costs you in your state backed fiat currency of choice---and you like at least a few of the weapons in them I'd say grab these packs. The noncustomisable weapons with their garish paintjobs seem silly to me, but getting great customisables like the HK416 and TAC50 and such is worth it for that price if you like those.

    Your 800 GR credits won't buy you much on their own, but you can, very slowly, earn more via gameplay. The game has "presitge credits" for a variety of challenge related tasks, and 400 of those opens single item "prestige crates" containing basically all premium items in the game. They can give duplicates, but duplicates will give you small amounts of GR credits, potentially enough to save for packs later if you like.

    So I'd say either buy more GR credits now and get these giant weapon packs while they are on sale or hang on to your 800 credits and wait to earn more.

    Finally it should be said that nothing you buy in the store is especially useful, necessary, or pay to win except for perhaps some missile helicopters or something. (You can steal them from NPC factions in game, but it's much easier if you can summon them.) Most of these weapons are just reskins of existing weapons and don't have particularly outstanding stats. An F2000 is just an MDR is just a TAR21 et cetera.

    Store purchases largely come down to have things you like the look of. ))))

    i don't own Snipers.....M40A5 GOLDEN SUN, MUSKET, STAMPEDE, all others i own from the game, dropped from crates or missions (i don't buy it)
    Ultimate Assault ...... G2 70's, ACR BABY VINTAGE, TYPE 95 INITIATE, TAR21 PREDATOR, LVOA, 416

    "As non-exist-ent said you CAN'T customize many of this weapons", the pack isn't worth it, since you have better guns in game which you can customize, but is your money.

    Well, giving Ubi any more money is probably bad in general, but the reason I say these packs are worth it is that they contain many good single customisable weapons that would cost 1500 each if bought individually.

    Like say you want the HK416 and LVOA, that's 3000 credits to buy them outright, so if you can get those two plus a bunch of other guns for 3300 I'd say that's worth it because you will make back GR 300 credits very quickly in prestige credit duplicate payouts every time one of those weapons comes up in a prestige crate.

    Of course the other side of that is that going this route means you miss out on all the cool clothing items in the R6 and "Relentless Fighter" packs like the wrapped shumagh and Crye combat shirt with rolled up sleeves and such, I'd certainly much rather buy those two packs to get those two guns. Which I did.

    The OP was asking about weapons only though, so I reckoned they were not interested in clothing and such in the other packs. Within the paradigm of weapons only---and giving Ubisoft more money---I'd say these huge packs at these prices are a good deal.
