I was just looking at the daily sales, and I realized one thing I absolutely hate. I hate it when they have an awesome sale on something and I didn't log in that day to buy it. An idea I thought would be cool is for SOE to open a texting service that you could enroll with. If you enroll, then at a set time (maybe even of your choosing) each day, SOE would send you a text telling you what the daily sales are. You could pick which empire you want the info for. This would be a good idea for a few reasons.

1. People might log in just for the sale and give them money.
2. The person getting the text is reminded that they play this awesome game and they want to go log in more time.
3. The person's friend sitting next to them asks who texted them and another person is told about what planetside is.

Honestly: I just hate missing a good deal...

I don't know if you're on Twitter but PS2DailyDeals lists the daily updates and you can get the Twitter updates through your phone so..

We are asking them for that feature since it was announced the planetside 2 app.
We can't play everyday but I do log everyday to see the offer of the day, I am sure I just lost 3 deal of the day that I couldn't log in, and one of them was the skyguard.
If I could check and buy it on my phone it would save me plent of time and I would expend more sc in the game.

Since SOE is the parent company, when u buy SC they already have your money. Buying stuff in ps2 just sends the sales to them.

been playing around with the app all morning, having the daily sales on there would make a great addition

I think it's kinda retarded that I need to start up my client to check and purchase daily sales. I should be able to do this in my browser and mobile app as well. SOE is throwing money away here.

I'd love to see daily sales listed more externally as well - anywhere will do. The Twitter account is run by a fan - which is awesome.. but it seems like a no brainer to have this information exposed externally.
