Ganzor Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I quit LOTRO over the pay to win shop, I'd hate to have to quit this game over one. I actually like this IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshbonrise Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 A bigger NO than this 'NO' here. We do not need such MT. Bringing this MT nonsense over and over isnt a good idea really. Especially while we wait for a n early Access here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigalo Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Nay, because all those features and items should be implemented, included and available to everyone that has paid the subscription. MTs are for F2P-MMOs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth-Rammstein Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 no way, it's just a way for the company to make money from all the idiots buying overpriced digital items that costs them almost nothing to design and are usually just reskins of other items in game anyways. or if say the game went f2p, look at lotro...in that game you can't do anything unless you buy turbine points to get this or get that to remain competitive or just to enjoy the content of the game.

enbee Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Sure, as soon as it goes F2P I'm fine with that, micro-transactions don't belong in a subscription based model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironix Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Micr-transations make me think of Star Trek Online... Oh great, now I feel sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Areka Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Nay, we will already pay to play. You pay for Content A. If BioWare devotes some resources not from Content A budget to create Content B as microtransaction content, then you are not entitled to Content B and must pay for it if you want it. Also, denying microtransactions just because is also pointless. If those microtransactions are just vanity, they could only have impact in: the people's wallet who bought the items and the ego of those who didn't but that want the content (same situation as CE, as most of you have survived to not having a CE). It's only reasonable to say "Nay" once we dip into the the dark waters of "Microtransactions of non vanity items". Also known by some as "Pay to Win". But denying all possible microtransactions because of the theoretical possibility of some being "Pay to Win"? "Nay" to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CadeAssant Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 If I can actually get the stuff I want rather then waste my time running the same FP over and over looking for one random drop. Then I say Yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlacidDragon Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Micro transactions you say ? Go away says i.... as in... i'll happily give you a kick to send you on your way (thats how i feel about MT's, hehe). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latinkuro Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I think micro transactions are a good idea. You buy exactly what you want to buy ( no lumped together CE bundle ), and pay for exactly what you want to pay for. The funds from the transactions provide additional revenue to the developer, who can then use it to... develop more content for the game. Win/Win Go back to F2P games dude, which naturally become P2W (pay 2 win) and the quality sicks big time. I used to like the F2P model, sounds awesome in theory but it only works for the publisher not for the players... and eventually all become pay to win. Example of a game that will fail because of this greedy business model: The secret world. it's like someone else wrote, driving your car on a long highway with toll booths every 2 miles.....!

Red_Cruiser Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 $15 a month and a cash shop? You've got balls, BioWare... not much in the way of brains, but you've got balls, I'll give you that./salute Oh yeah. Nay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithKaith Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Yes for things like speeders, companion looks, orange social items, pets etc. Spending 5$ or 10$ for some social stuff won't kill me. It's funny that most ppl wil spend a lot of $$ in fast foods or buying beer and cigarets but 5$ for a mount? NEVER!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahoda Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 LithKaith just imagine that You are monthly paying for all beer you can drink. Will you pay more for same beer just in a different bottle?No microtransactions while need of monthly payment. So NAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnt Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Nay I pay 15$ a month to have access to everything not in expansions (which imo shouldn't exist but w/e) putting a cash shop in a sub game is double dipping and incredibly scummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viga Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 No. I already pay a monthly fee to play the game. If you want your micro transactions go play one of the hundreds of free to play (lol) mmo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithKaith Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) LithKaith just imagine that You are monthly paying for all beer you can drink. Will you pay more for same beer just in a different bottle? No microtransactions while need of monthly payment. So NAY I was not talking about what you buy just how much money you spend on it. Btw no one will force you to buy this if it's just social stuff do they? But noooo <I'm not paying for that pet and you will not pay for it to> If you can't afrod that kind of money well I'm sorry for you.
