Seriously give people the ability ot earn 50 HC per day in some way likely with a daily challenge and it will make the cost more palatable.
Every free to play game has a way to earn its paid currency for a reason. It is better for the players, and it causes people to spend more as they may just need 2 dollars to get that daily so might as well spend 5.
Yeah I am posting this in corporate speak for a reason. That is the only thing the big wigs understand.
Super Animal Royal is the best example of how to do a free to play game. earn in game currency, make two types if need be, have premium earn through payment, but have the other currency get through just playing the game and doing good. have both currencies get there own shop, premium having the better stuff, whiles also not making the free currency have jack. both feel good and offer good or decent stuff
So basicly the Halo reach shop with a premium option?
pretty much! honestly iād take it over the current system of things
Trust me, 343 is a business and they know how-to, itās just they didnāt care to at the moment. Iām sure they have made a lot of money just off this bata so far so things went exactly as they planed.
There is nothing to learn here. Itās just a matter of whether they are willing to add a currency or not.
nothing to learn other than āitās workingāā¦ modern day gaming only caring about greed. gotta love it! 20gigs have been freed on my pc
Same. I would do it something like this.
Example ODST helmet, and its sniper head gear.
Helmet
base cost: 1,000 credits
premium cost: 50 HC
Sniper visor attachment
cost: 500 credits
premium cost: 10 HC
comparable with: list of helmets.
credit earn rate
you earn credits based on matches and metals, with 5 credits earned per match 10 per win. (15 total) and credits per metal at the following rates
bronze=1 credit
silver=2 credit
platnum=3 credits
Mythic: 5 credits
Consistancy metals=10 credits
Consistency metals
One trick: get 10 kills with a single weapon with out dying.
Master driver: get 15 kills with a vehicle or turret with out dying.
Weapon master: get 50 kills with a weapon in PvP (is tracked across matches)
Consolation prize: earned every 100 deaths from enemy players.
none of the consistency metals can be earned in custom game or bot matches.
Iāve never understood how anyone thinks a business that is more concerned about their investor and only look at us as a number, somehow thinks the business ācars about themā, let alone their opinion.
Investors are a bit of a plague but they have a lot of control, if they are not happy they can literally fire the guy who owns the company.
yeah! all of that would be amazing!
or, hay, if 343 doesnāt want to do that and instead encourage the challenges more. have it be something like:
every 50 xp the challenge offers is 1-5 free credits
I donāt think 343 has to worry about that knowing how many naive players there are in this world these days.
Like how we earn XP from normal play, credits should be earned the same way.
