Generally, I'm happy with the game, despite being quietly bummed about the increasing number of non-functioning jetpacks, but this case is a bit different.
Spending money on packs with an expectation that the thing works as advertised only to have it broken really stings. Nevermind that the Bounty Broker's gear doesn't work, or that the new basic comm gear doesn't work. I really hope Musco or one of the other mods pass on the dissatisfaction to the dev team. Honestly, it can't be that hard to get these things turned around.
