Also, they are using this "Huge" amount of front loaded Cartel Coins as a selling point to keep people subbed during this period with basically no information. If that amount of cartel points winds up being able to purchase ONE Mount, or ONE cosmetic outfit, they basically just swindled their entire customer base on purpose.
Ideally, the amount of cartel coins they give you should be able to make sure you don't have to spend anymore money until an expansion pack. This means if they take the super douchey decision to Monetize Makeb, instead of providing it to subscribers like they already said they would (see the trend of going back on their words yet?) then the Cartel Coins subscribers get had better unlock that content.
