    Subscription should not be its pay model

    You don't want to see the truth... That's why you are not anwsering THAT question ;)  

    My goal is to get answer from the Devs, not " alpha members " and guess what ? They will never answer it, cause the didn't thought that we will find out what was behind those enormous space ship. 

    They are just misleading customers to a complete different game. I really hope that they will not for the "early access"  that would be their final stop.

     

    I don't see the link. Can you send it to me, please?

     

    Over 10 years ago when the standard sub of 15$ a month came into action and wages were also lower.

     

    We need to be pushing for 20$ a month.

    Think a ticket to a amusement park is well over fifty dollars now, and they raise rates every couple of years by a little bit.

     

    The price for maintaining servers and internet has gone up, yet we expect that the price of the game would remain the same at 15$ a month forever without increasing not even to cover cost of expense.

    If you want to send a message to make sure everything is attainable within the game, then we should be pushing for a $20 a month subscription with no cosmetic shop, no convenience shop, no cash shop.

     

    If you dont mind them making weapon skins, and clothing and selling it for 5-10$ per item. all right, do you think you'll spend less over the course of a year on just a sub, or with a cash shop - even if its just cosmetic.

     

    If my cost comes out to more than 220 to 240 a year on potions, loot boxes, cosmetics, builder tools, or anything they want to sell. Not worth it, it becomes a burden on building a non toxic community.

    I know they're considering a cosmetics shop, so just imagine that, paying 10 euro or dollars a month and then another 150 on cosmetic stuff. Of course sure, you'll "own" those items on your character, until they make something newer and cooler.

     

    Why would we want to limit the developers in this way, instead of them spoon feeding us cosmetics and quality of life items, they could instead implement what they want when they want to. They could implement entire in game systems around character, weapon, and clothing design if they so chose to, but with a shop don't expect player freedom in any of those areas, buy the clothes wear the clothes, all characters will be the same height and proportions to make it easy to make clothes.

     

    The exact opposite of what people believe is true in that a themepark should be pay to play and a sandbox should be free to play. Its backwards, themparks can get by on free to play because they have a complete encapsulated experience, and they can sell whatever to people. Its funny people will buy it, spending hundreds of dolalrs more to play for a few months than what they would spend over an entire year paying the max subscription amount.

     

    A sandbox (or a self respecting game) needs to be pay to play, or buy once and done, so the developer can maintain the quality of player freedoms and ensure an ongoing evolution of the experience. The price for buy once and done for a game of this quality would be over 450 dollars and only a few people are going to pay that.

     

    20$ every month? LOL

    Who will play? You, the devs and another couple of people? Let's be realistic, 10$-15$ it's far enough.

    Also I'm ok with buying the game + monthly sub since there were no promises like other games I backed, but I don't want to see a cash shop, not even a cosmetic one.

    I get the B2P with cashshop or P2P with no shop. But having both together makes no sense. 

     

    You are saying those who only paid once for the game gets the option to buy cosmetic items, but those who are paying monthly dont get to buy those items, in the same game?

    I mean optional subscription. Who pays the subscription may buy everything in-game without spending any more real money, while those who only bought the game and are not paying a subscription will have the very same cosmetic shops paying real money. Both get the same things, obviously!
