And I say we start with the biggest offenders in the store the weekly bundles
Not saying the daily bundles are out of the question but since they kinda go up abd down on price it’s hard to lower them when some seem reasonable like the glass hound bundle was mostly well received for it’s price
But for now let’s focus on the 2000 and 1500 bundles what should they be at? 1000? Or less?
And please can try to be civil with this topic and just discuss this and not get into a debate
Yeah, the current offering of the HAZOP armor is a good example of how ridiculous the pricing is. Not only is that $20 for that set, but you also have to have paid the $10 for the season pass to be able to use it. So $30 total to wear HAZOP. I’d say for the bundles like that that require purchasing the season pass the price should be $5. For the bundles that go with the Mark VII core everyone has by default, okay $10 isn’t as ridiculous. For the bundles that are only charms and/or weapon skins, $2-$3 seems reasonable. The daily bundles of an armor coating, helmet attachment, and shoulder pieces, the current $5 price seems decent.
Okay okay I like this and makes sense at the moment but what off next season is all mk vii focus should the same idea you provided be added then or no? Since we’ll mk vii is unloved by default
I don’t think that would change anything. If the bundle on offer doesn’t require having purchased one of the season passes, then $10 is okay. If the items in a bundle come with a prerequisite of “must have unlocked X item that’s a premium unlock in the season pass” then it should be $5.
Alright then that seems very reasonable indeed
I say drop the bundling concept all together and just sell the pieces individually; also, stop rotating them in and out. That FOMO s*** is for the birds, and has no place in Halo whatsoever. Keep that crap in Fartnite, or wherever the hell it originated.
I don’t think that’s up for negotiations like at all but a possible tab that contains past bundles would help cut the fomo
As far as I’m concerned, everything is on the table; if they really want this game to have the legs to last 10 years, they better be open to suggestion. Otherwise it’s going to die a quick, merciful death. 343i did the one thing nobody expected them to do, and actually fixed most of their f***-ups with MCC; they’ve proved they can salvage a s***-show, but they’ve also shown that they love making them, by simply not listening to what people want.
And how is selling individual pecies gonna help? Like explain that how? And what I said fixes the fomo too look I’m looking at this realistically abd finding the solution for that secnario what you said could work but odds are it may not
How is it going to help? I guarantee you they would make a lot more money if they would just sell the pieces people actually want individually, than if they keep bundling them and rotating them in and out like clowns. All 343i have done with this franchise since they’ve gotten control of it is copy other people’s ideas, change things, screw things up, and run the reputation of the series into the ground. And so the cycle continues.
Yes but how would they be priced? And would it better for the long term? Eventually people will find what suits them and leave the store a lone and yeah 343 made mistakes everyone does but that doesn’t mean harping on them over and over for it
The 2000 bundle items will probably go to 1000. I also think that the REACH related bundles (Hazop, JFO, Gungnir, CQB, Operator, Emile’s Security shoulders, Carter’s Commando shoulders, et cetera) will probably be added to extra tiers in the battle pass.
You cannot have a season of 6 months and only have 100 levels. And then sell the items that should have been in that pass for insane money.
The 1500, 1000 and below bundles will probably go to somewhere between 200 and 1000.
I also think we will get in game earnable currency.
343i will probably make insane money if they lower the prices. They can’t run out of digital goods anyway.
I have one guy in here that says for the stuff that’s in the pass like the reach armor it should be like 500 and 1000 for the mk vii which I think is ver interesting as well currently you basically spend 3000 for both the pass that has the reach core and a set that uses it so a lower price on the pass armor core should be lower the price to get the pass
They will need to fix something. I hope cross core will soon be a thing. However, it makes no sense to add Reach armor to the Mark VII core lore wise. And if they do, cross core customization should also work the other way around (Mark VII armor on the Mark V core).
A good start is to give everybody the Mark V core for free. So that also people who didn’t buy the battle pass can have a Reach character.
It’s not just about pricing for me, although a full armour set should be £5 tops. This weekly rotation thing needs to go, just show all the content and what it costs all the time.
The store should only be for the Mk.VII core too. Battlepasses should add cores and include all the variations associated with that core, even if it means bumping the price up to £10 or even £15. The only exception being that visor colours and armour coatings should be universal to any core.
They have said that cross core will happen but I think we can let lord be for the sake of creativity thrown out plus some of the fan stuff I’ve seen just doesn’t give a toot about lore and just goes nuts I mean it probably wouldn’t be that hard to update mk v to mk vii like in h5 some reach helmets were the old mk v b helmets just updated to work with gen 2 so if we do count lore in it’s not that far off for it to happen in lore for mk vii to use updated mk v b or maybe even mk vi armor
That part of universal coatings is happening same with cross core customization but I kinda had the idea of a section of the store being just past stuff/ current stuff being available like the current section of the store could be the front and like the hcs part can be an option too to select past bundles or as another one here said individual parts if there’s pieces that they like but don’t want to buy the bundle for it
True. But right now there is FOMO. People don’t know if and when something will come back. And then they buy it just to make sure. So 343i probably makes a lot of money that way.
I think changes are coming soon. Just look at how this week there only is 1 daily rotating bundle. I think 343i is reviewing all store bundles right now. I’ve seen already 2 leaked store bundles that are added to the loot of future events.
I did notice that there was only one daily I thought for a moment it was glitched or something
Actually after re thinking here I think I have an idea thst could work now on the main store page the bundles stay but like the hcs section there’d be one of the individual pieces of past and current bundles like let’s use hazop bundle here if I wanted the hazop knees and nothing else I can go to that new section select the knees at the price that piece is at
See cuts out fomo, keeps bundles if some think the bundle is worth it and keeps the idea you had of individual pieces being sold
