There are many valid complaints that I’ve seen from this gaming community. Some are easy fixes and some could take a while redesign of the game.
That being said, I was wondering if players would be willing to pay a monthly fee of somewhere between $2.99-3.99. The fee would ensure a steady revenue stream for the game. With this membership fee we could be given unlimited roster slots, up to 15 health pack regens only taking 20 min, and a guaranteed ISO gift of 2k a week.
This is obviously just a preliminary idea and just something I thought could help the player base while keeping the devs from feeling like we’re getting something for nothing.
While I’m not necessarily opposed to a subscription, something about that one doesn’t seem to click. A few extra health packs in the pool, and a bit of reduction in recharge time seem good. 2k ISO a week, meh. You get 3.5k plus tacos every day. An extra weekly 2k isn’t compelling.
And the roster slots, while interesting, begs a number of questions. What about the 90 slots I’ve bought already? Is that just a sunk cost? What happens if your cancel your subscription?
I’d be interested if it really helped, but I’m with dragon, if it didn’t give a significant advantage in iso, there isn’t much else in the game that will advance my roster much. other than 5* covers, and those probably won’t even be considered for a low subscription fee like that, not much else will benefit me enough to spend.
really, just double iso and a slumpbuster automatic 5* after your 20th consecutive non-5* and I’d probably pay more than you’ve proposed. those 2 things for mid-late 4* transition and higher would drastically improve our experience.
At the rate this game is going I wouldn’t mind seeing it go in the direction of DCUO far as a membership monthly fee goes. Higher the tier you pay the more perks. I’d think for just a year alone could entitle you to legendary token but only for a 5 star character. Like if you are a member then the screen for the 5 star would be visiable to you and you could turn it in that way. For each month you pay you could get a new 5 star token.
With how stingy certain things are currently, you would have to negotiate high so that your low is at least somewhat reasonable.
I don’t think a measly 2k iso a week, faster health pack regens, and roster slots breaks the game especially for that price.
It eliminates the problem of expiring covers, would give an ISO increase to everyone and allow for increased play. Potentially, it could be tiered staying at 1.99 going up to 4.99 for max benefits.
Maybe at 1.99 you get more health packs with faster regen. At 2.99 you get all the previous with 1k ISO a week. At 3.99 you get 2k ISO and everything else. At 4.99 you get unlimited roster slots and 3k a week in ISO with everything else.
only way they would make it a pay per month if there was paid PVP/PVE only those who pay can enter… any other way it would not work. Give people free slots people will bitch and leave (i know i would)
A tiered system takes care of the place in which you may be with your roster.
Tier 1 beginners could get 300 ISO a week, tier 2 could be 500 ISO a week, with tier 3 going up to 1500 ISO a week, tier 4 being 5k ISO a week and tier 5 being somewhere between 12-20k a week.
There still needs to be some other benefits with the ISO.
I wonder how people would feel about a something of a compromise of what’s been listed. Premium accounts could have an additional daily resupply; in essence you’d be paying for X days worth of extra drops. More ISO, HP, CP, and covers potentially. Could be tempting depending on the numbers.
People bitch now and are threatening to quit regardless. If people are foolish enough to leave because of something that benefits everyone then they didn’t plan on staying anyway.
Expiring covers is a real problem that shouldn’t exist and neither should roster limitations. For clash royale your slots are limited to the number of cards currently in the game and new cards are automatically rostered. This is how it should be. Your money or time should only be expended on placing in a tourney or the acquisition of new characters.
This is what I’m trying to drive home. Maybe the numbers sect what wet believe they are are the devs and publisher don’t have the invective to give us more.
Maybe the game has hit the point of diminishing returns and unless another revenue stream is devised they can’t reasonably provide more.
Regardless, if it is or isn’t if a monthly sub tier went no higher than say 6.99 a month I think a significant number of players would be onboard. Paying more than netflix would be unreasonable.
I won’t pay a monthly fee to play the game. I have things I’m unhappy with but nothing that prevents me with playing currently, nothing where I’d need that stuff. Roster slots haven’t been a problem for me for over a year now…
I think it would be a great incentive to buy a certain tier of iso/hp and get a timed double iso bonus. Like buy the 1.99 iso/hp and get an hour of double iso. 4.99 get 12 hours 19.99 get a week of double iso. 49.99 get a month of double iso. 99.99 get 3 months of double iso. Or something to that nature.
Nothing will satisfy everyone and there will be some things that people don’t need. I for instance need ddq while others are so advanced that it’s irrelevant. When you get down to it we need a solution that gives more ISO to everyone, eliminates expiring covers, allows for more in depth play across different star levels, and brings more replayability with scaling issues fixed.
I’m currently on 70 slots and have spent a significant amount of money to get them. I’d still rather have all my slots going forward be free. So maybe they don’t charge for the unlimited slots and just give those to us. That should be in existence anyway.
Things evolve and you can’t get upset just because the game is moving forward. How many people spent money to obtain strong 3rosters to have them invalidated by 4??
It happens but this evolution could fix much of that damage.
