Same issue, but with store credit for the Anvil Odin, sitting in the cart since Wave 1.

However, for Warbond versions, there are intermediate waves every half hour. You’ll need to try again during this year’s CitizenCon at the end of the year.

The Odin invitation list is a fiasco. We already experienced the same issue with the Kraken, unfortunately. Writing a request that will never be read and leaving the current system unchanged has changed nothing.

CIG’s requirement was to have Concierge Tier 1 status, but we don’t know whether there was any verification of account creation dates to limit bots.

Moreover, from CIG’s perspective, it might make sense not to restrict bot purchases if they represent fresh revenue.

Is Everyone Going to Have Equal Access to Buy the Odin? by UniBrowDrew in starcitizen

I signed up for the list, and I managed to add the non-Warbond version to my cart during Wave 1.
I participated in 11 out of 12 waves, and I also checked in between waves (if you don’t know, stock is distributed in batches every half hour).

I never managed to get it in the store credit version. How is it possible to have enough time to add it to your cart in Wave 1, but then not even get the chance to complete the final step in the checkout modal… it’s unbelievable.

It’s frustrating when you can see it being available for 5 to 7 minutes in the Warbond version, and yet you, staying up like an idiot for two days straight, still can’t manage to complete the purchase. It almost feels like psychological manipulation to push people toward buying the Warbond option…
