Cash Shop/Costumes Prices.

  • Where do you even see a guild rename token? i only see a guild emblem token changer. As for my ticket about my guild name getting screwed up they told me that everything should be fixed soon.

    Glad you asked :> They removed it from the premium shop soon after this thread got over 2k views (Don't know if its correlated, the item got taken down after ~3-5 hours) but luckily I screenshotted it.

    If that's the case then I'm assuming they're looking into the issue at least. So we do have some confirmation they're listening.


    Greetings! If you guys are reading this - I hope you aren't too stressed out by everything that's going on. We know you're working hard and we're glad to be able to play. A community who can enjoy spending money is better for everyone, both in our own health as players and in your own bottom line and sustainability. If your monetization can encourage that and we can come to a healthier compromise, I hope to see the game flourish in the coming months and years!

  • That's... Pretty expensive for something with such a small change.



    I feel like just renovating to a new guild would be better at that point.

    I'll be going over specific prices in another post at some point, they're just pretty long projects and I'm behind on the Energy System post I was making.

    I wouldn't make a big deal out of this (altho it totally is) but our guild is almost level 4, got a guild skill and 250k funds towards the next one so Im not giving it up because of their mistakes

  • Where do people get these prices from?


    I used 25 euros and got 5250 points. Which was enough for a costume, Hairstyle and the novice pack.

    NA's pricing system is in a vastly worse-off state at the time. EU feels a lot healthier but the region-specific part here is my own main concern.

    Ahhh ok cause i was like well i might be willing to fork out the money to fix my guild name anyway if it wasnt a ridiculous price but 2450?!!! i could see 500 or 1000 but thats over 20 dollars for a freakin name change... thats crazy...

  • To put it as simple as possible (as suggested), I'll try to explain my view on this.


    The ratio of CAD/USD to in-game currency is insanity, yes, but that's solely MY OPINION. I can complain all I want; at the end of the day, Gameforge can make whatever prices they want. They're not telling me to pay it, it'd be my choice. I have a full-time job and can easily afford to spend money on a game I enjoy playing.


    That isn't my issue.


    My issue is that, metaphorically speaking, it's as if we all sat down at a restaurant and ordered our food, only to have it spilled on the floor and then the waiter asks for a big tip.


    That's exactly how it feels right now on my end; it isn't a necessary thing but it is a huge slap in the face to the people who supported this game for so long, even before its open-beta release...


    The servers have been unstable at BEST for NA, and that's when NA is even up... Until that's at least fixed, I won't entertain the thought of supporting this game financially.

  • Does anyone know if the Hanacoin/Soulcash price for individual items is different as well?


    EDIT: Quick update - I was able to receive the Community Mat and the 100 Energy Vitamin following the login bonus counter - so yes, those free items are still available for what seems to be the duration of the beta, though having confirmation from Gameforge staff would help.


    I was unable to find the respawner or megaphone.


    ....also, shortly after that, the premium shop broke for me and it's not opening at all again like previously.

  • If it helps I also did get those items you are talking about. Everyone was saying they had been removed and I was starting to think I was going crazy.

  • This is the most p2w cash shop ever.


    You can upgrade your itens without grind.

    Just buy the materials, the protect, the chip and try.

    Maybe you need farm a little of aethers, but its ok, you just need kill monster, dont need lucky to get drop.


    WTF

  • I feel like keeping only the free items up until the OB ended would have been the smart move.


    It seems kind of silly to offer a product when the foundation for most people is iffy at best.

    Exactly.

    I still feel like the logic isn't unsound from a business perspective, but being upset or contentious about it is fair as well. Best-case scenario they intend to use the money to hire more people to help fix the server issues (if the monetization itself isn't broken first)
