Actually, since you guys ask, I am thinking of having a VERY optional one that would be extremely straight forward. Exemple: 10$ monthy sub would give you the equivalent of 12$ or 15$ if you commit for 3 months... etc... Just a way for some of you to ''bank'' rebate points by committing future purchase. Nothing else, no other advantage. It was the ONLY model that I did not put in my survey and you Crusader are so committed that you are the one asking me. Its not FINAL..... just a though! Miguel
Dear Crusaders, I just read this article. THEY Understood that being ethical and moral in a business model is ALWAYS better in the long run. see:http://www.polygon.com/2014/2/28/5451410/how-is-ethical-free-to-play-path-of-exile-faring Regards Miguel
Very good article, I especially like the last part, explains everything: But honestly speaking, Miguel I don't understand your 10 $ sub idea.
1 thing. don't do crazy pricing like mechwarrior online. 1 permanent color unlock can cost u up around 4 bucks. that is that cheapest thing to call a micro in that f2p. anything added to buy should be priced decently. i won't even get started on hero mechs costing u 30 bucks. PGI ruined that ip for me, bring me much love for this 1.
Crusader Iway, you must be new to our Forum! Welcome in!! To bring up up to date in our approach. Well to say it in a simple way. YOU are my boss. We have decided on a philosophy of: NO MARKETING FIREWALL BETWEEN YOU AND THE DEV. That means that we are making YOUR game so once we have finished our founders program structures and pricing: I will post it in the forums BEFORE we announce it officially to ask for all your feedback. Again to make sure that our BOSSES (the community) is happy. We have already changed a lot of design based on the community feedback (we had a chapter logo upside down) or even suggestions (like the jump pack wall jump or the way to exit a drop pod) So rest assure. NOTHING like what happened with Mechwarrior will happen on my watch. Regards Miguel
Dear Crusader, Please check the survey result at the top of the page. There is NO subscription there Our model, which is the one the community favored, is HYBRID Buy to Play (pay once play forever) with ONE sub-faction being F2P (The Boyzzz!!) where they can't be a leader in our game. (Yes, our game is player driven, Squad, Strikeforce (10 squad) and the whole faction war concil are lead by players). to be a leader you need to be Eldar, SM, CSM, or Orks Noobs. The subscription we MIGHT have is EXTREMELY OPTIONAL and only gives you extra points because you are committing cash in advance. I am basically paying ''interest'' for giving me money BEFORE you actually spend it on an item. Hope now that you will come closer to the game!! ;-) Miguel
Ho!! I did not already told you!! So sorry, I must of forgotten. Unfortunatly, NO. and we even enhance the visual you had made with a Space Wolf version!! GWS is very severe about NOT mixing real life and the 40K universe (that is why the had ask us to remove the word Brother in front of our titles in the meet the team video) They told me (and I have to agree) that a Space Marine is a KILLING weapons...... having them in a teddy bear form kind of dilute their lethality!! But.... I have other ideas I am working one that, if successful, will please you even more!! Miguel
