Poll about new Darkness and Wild bundles
If you didn't buy a Darkness or Wild bundle, what was your reason?
|
I already own all the cosmetics that aren't pets, so the bundles are useless to me.
Great idea with making bundles, though. Última edição por Nickoladze#5973 em 6 de nov. de 2013 18:36:50

Chris. To be honest, I would buy them in a heartbeat if they did not look like shit.
Personally I really don't want a pet to follow me places, unless they did some unique action that is atypical of pets in pet games. For example, the scorpion, lizard, frog etc. Were all small generic and unnoticeable/negligible when view from the perspective of another account. However, the flying rhoa creature is pretty interesting/cool, but many players cannot afford it. Micro-transaction in my opinion ought to modify an effect or a skill to out-rightly signify and show client support of the game to other players. Mummy skin for zombies and most of the skill effect modifiers are pretty decent, obvious and effective. As for pets, create something that would have an action/reaction dependent on a player's decision. Here are some of my ideas: - A pet that coos/caws/cheers if you kill, say a unique or rare monster. - A pet that tallys kill count - A pet that weeps/sighs/cries/shame you, when you die. - A utility pet that acts as a beast of burden. (This is probably stretching the ethics of MT) - A pet that is substantially large, flies, burrows or swim. Possibly taking up a 4x4 or 9x9 3D rendering box. - A pet rock/boulder/snowball that gets bigger, chases you. (Think, Indiana Jones) - A pet dragon? (Not my idea) - A slave - A butler/maid As for skill effects, there aren't enough of them. There are some skills out there with potential to have them, even if coloring them differently. - Power Siphon - Ice Spear - Freezing Pulse - Split Arrow - Leap Slap - Lighting Arrow (Old Animation was better) - Ice Shot - All the Auras (Old Animations were wayyyyy better) - Whirling Blades I am sure that there are more but those were the most pressing ones on my mind. Lastly, maybe a shop that does a "pick your own" package for $xx.00 , or other payment methods. I've heard players from countries other than the US have trouble paying. Game cards? Maybe. Well that is all for now. Looking forwards to future patches and improvements to the game. Keep up the good work. In-Game Name: BLOOBERRY_

I'm holding out, waiting for a new sexy cosmetic skin of those naked statues. Maybe model them after a famous Kiwi porn star, if there are any.

What I don't get is how the Ebony Weapon Effect didn't make it into the Darkness Pack- And how the Verdant Weapon Effect didn't make it into the Wild Pack.
If I didn't own a lot of what is in those packs I'd probably buy one of them with those additions. Furthermore, I think skill effects are a bad idea for these packs as most people wont be playing a (in this case)cleave/RoA build during the period of the packs being on sale. And the people who are interested in skill effects for their favorite/current build would probably own them already. Cheers Edit: to clarify, I personally would enjoy full themed packs such as all ebony but without the more personal features like pets and skill effects.

The MTX are all too expensive in general. I'd love to get some of the infernal effects, but they're WAY too pricey. As for the bundles, there just isn't anything in there I want.

Two of my biggest problems about the shop in general.
1. Many of the helmet, etc based effects are just badly designed and look pretty poor. Lack of depth and some clipping issues. 2. Just the general cost of what you are getting. $25 for a weapon skin? I don't know the economics here but I'm guessing if it was lowered to a more 'micro' rate people would be more impulsive with purchasing. Nothing micro about $25 for a weapon skin. It just doesn't feel like I'm getting the value. There seems to be a craze in the F2P market where because the game is free that means you should charge unrealistic prices in your micro-transaction shop.

The only effect from the two bundles I would ever buy is the demon-hand-cleave - but I do not have a single character that uses cleave. Nevertheless, buying a bundle full of other pretty mediocre or low tier cosmetics does not seem justified when I only like one effect from it. I bought the Halloween bundle, which had far cooler stuff and time-limited microtransactions which will become classics in a few months.
Anyway, if you want to hear my advice: don't put effects for skills nobody uses (cleave) in bundles, I reckon people would only buy a bundle if either the discount was higher than what you offered or they had use for all of the goodies in the bundle. :) Disregard witches, aquire currency.

" This. Seems like you'd have much better luck getting 5 people to spring $25 than getting one person to pay $25. The costs associated with many of the micro-transactions are not micro. New Year's Resolutions:

I would suggest some sort of "Release 1.0" supporter pack ASAP. People will do a lot for a little recognition and points they can buy stash tabs with. I have a bunch of MTs, but its annoying to constantly swap them from gear to gear and if I didn't have the points from a supporter pack, there is no way I would have bought them. Except maybe the skull hood, and that's because many of the helmets are...Interesting in design, to be polite about it.
