Removed CCU's from Pledge Store

[Patrick Spaceman]

An eagle-eyed person on spectrum noticed that CIG has removed the CCU's for the Avenger Titan and Stalker as well as the CCU for the Gladius. I jumped on the pledge store and confirmed, that indeed is the case...has this ever happened before in any capacity?

Could it be so many people buying Mules and Mule CCU's to these ships? (Disclaimer - I did).

Very often they do mistakes like that. I cant remember any sale where there was not a problem with a ship "accidently" removed from the upgrade store, while it was available as standalone.

Dont worry, it will be back soon. Just a matter of days after the current sale ends.

Last IAE it was for some Avengers and a few others.

Yep it's happened before. An example from a couple months ago was the Connie Taurus. Left and came back a few times over the course of a weekend or something. Was weird to see but it came back. Titan and Gladius would be odd to keep away since they are both "iconic" to CIG.

I have my LTI Titan and Gladius so i'm happy..just waiting to upgrade the Titan to the Renegade when it comes back around again.

Nice...Both the Avengers and the Gladius are awesome.

"Weird with a capital Wee" to quote The Cat from Red Dwarf.

I think CIGs catalogue of "products" is so large now and the on/off nature of the Limited items so delightfully higgledy-piggledy they would benefit from automated testing matched up to an avalability table so when a script to put X in the checkout can not compete, it references the availability dates then sends a report to the Merchendising team to bring their attention to something being off when it should be on...

Assuming they dont have that already and this isn't caused by work-around functionality they want their web-shop to do which it was not built for and this is one of the infrequent side-effects...?

Yeah odd, but as others have said has happened before. Just checked then and they're still MIA.
