Should I get the making history pack?

[Gyrothesia]

I've heard there are some of cool new parts, and there is the really cool mission maker (which i am extremely interested in). But is it worth $14.99? I have $20 in steam money and was wondering if this at all would be worth it. Heck, is it even good? Would it even be worth picking it up at a steam sale?

Where'd you hear that from? Sure, a few of them are great, but all of them have better free alternatives in mods.

Well that depends on you, because the missions are completely standalone, and have several cool features that arent available outside the Mission Builder(floating launchpad among other things).

Probably not, as the other person has mentioned the same parts can be found in mods (and many more historical parts). Mission builder is quite interesting, though I'd suggest watching a few youtube videos on it. It probably would be best to pick it up on a steam sale, if you do decide to buy it.

if you are a stock player who doesnt use mods then the DLC may be worth it for the newer parts and engines.

if you use mods you can find pretty much everything in the DLC  elsewhere.

This basically sums it all up, in my opinion.

Well, there ya go.  There's your answer. 

Go watch a bunch of videos on people using it, and see if you like what it entails.

Check the mission builder subforum to see if there's anything there you like.

Whatever MH can do, mods can do better, so don't bother

I mean they cant do mission builder, but on the part side, yes definitely.

Thank you all for the advice, i think i might pick it up on the up incoming summer steam sale. Since the mission builder looks awesome.

To be honest, I think that the feature I end up using the most often is the other launchsites... I do, however, use the parts occasionally.
