If you buy the Operations Pass (either one) you retroactively get all the extra rewards you would have won for the levels you already passed, right? How about going forward?
I want the legendary skins for BOTH the Blitz (free) and Spectre (paid) that are at Level 60. Do I have to wait to buy my pass until after I am at L60? Or if I bought the pass now would I win both skins together?

There is no need to buy a pass right now; you can wait and see how far you get over the next 45 days or so.

I feel the value of buying the pass is high unless you do not play much. Certainly level 60 should be obtainable if you play 6 - 10 matches a day. I play quite a bit and am at Level 55. I bet some others are in the 60’s. I felt the $15 was well worth it after one day. I hit 100 mil Ag and also got significant Au. Obviously some of the earnings would have been obtained along the free path. I just can’t believe the next pass coming in November will be this lucrative so my advice is grab as much as you can this time around. Unless you are a f2p purist then ignore this advice and you will still receive some decent Ag, etc.

Because a lot of people were complaining and possibly leaving. With this at least now people can get their builds up quicker and more effective against people who pay. And then there's the $15 which looks really nice, and might just convince those free-to-play to actually just pay $15 so they can have a huge upgrade.

How close are you to the Super Chest? Just the extra keys won will get you there. With your activity levels and average honor per game, it won't take you long to reach 60.

My goal is the Spectre pilot (lv 66, paid pass), for my Vortex-Orkan Spectre, Same. My Scourge Spectre is waiting for his neon special paint job (5% armor buff) and the 10% buff to the ability damage output from that pilot. In addition to that, I'm mk2ing my scourges. I plan to suck the life out of T-falcs finally...hopefully. Edit: Rollo Tomasi does that setup scare you at all, or will your falcon do this...?

Already at 54 so I should be there in a day or so.

I just switched to Scourge Spectre now that Tarans have been nerfed. Wow is it a killer build! Only 2 Scourges are L12 the others are still only 7 & 9, but it's still really dangerous. I have Adrian already on it though, so I don't think I'll bother switching to Mr. Thin Mint once I get him.

Since one tangent of this thread is when people are going to buy the operations pass, I’ll add that I’ve decided to wait until at least level 53. At that level, you would get 4500 Au from the premium operations track. Comparatively, the $15 I would spend on the premium operations pass is what you would spend to obtain about 4500 Au from typical “sale” deals. By waiting until I hit that level, I’ll feel like I’m spending a typical amount of $$$ on Au but (at least, depending where I end up at the end of the operations cycle) with a “bonus” of a modest chunk of Ag, keys, pc, etc

Reflecting on my satisfactory experience with Ops so far, I see no reason to wait on buying the pass up-front, there is no benefit to waiting that I can see.
I bought the +2000 pass ($25) and thought it was “fair value” compared to amounts spent on (some) events which paid me ahead for some unremembered # of levels, but I’ve been zipping thru several levels an hour much of the day. I see no advantage in the $10 jump-ahead *now*, given how fast I’m moving.
If I’d just bought the +0 pass ($15), I could have used that $10 for 2000 OXP later on when it gets to be really tough
Really ought to mention the OXP boosters, which are received throughout the operation and attach to battle scores: the boosters stack automatically, so if you have them, they’re on deck. VIP also claims a 50% boost to battle OXP, just like the boosters AFAICT...but how OXP and two 50% boosts turn into a number, I dunno. Bottom line, no clue how to calculate it, of even guess at it. Even so, I think I’ve had both boosters in place since Ops began.
Unless they make destabilizing changes @ next op, I’ll go Pass/VIP, but I’ll see how long it takes me to bog down as I progress. L38, next....

Those are two different situations. There are no "free" prizes level 60 on regardless have you bought the pass, the super pass, or passed on the pass.

Like I said the free line stops at 60 I didn't know you had to buy the super pass to get past level 60 so I bought the cheaper pass and now I cannot get the top line (which was free to 60). If I'd known I'd have paid the extra...It wasn't clear (to me) what the extra $10 was for.

As you can see, they are presents with a bar across them meaning there is no gift or prize. If there were a prize, there would be a lock over the image.

I bought it early, and got enough Au to get 5th slot there and then, and get a few pilot promotions on top of it (which I had been pushing forward, saving to finally get the 5th slot).
