I own the eye and hat separately, now they put both together and call it a new cosmetic with full price. Really? Shouldn’t the people who got both of this items get this one for free or at least with a BIG discount? Same with recolors.
This is the kind of thing that makes me not buy anything from you, or at least nothing similar to those cosmetics because I will be thinking about waiting until you add the combination I want and no FOMO will justify buying because your prices are just too high to spend money “just in case”.
I want to hear what people think about this matter.
I don’t think that’s a good logic to have. They could have left the game as in launch because it’s their game and they can do whatever they want. There would be no sense on pointing out anything just because it’s their game.
Even so this is detrimental for them, I want the steel legion head cosmetic but I want it with the googles on. Still I would have bought the one currently in store but considering they pulled off this nonsense I’m not buying it because I think that at some point they will add a version with the googles on at full price. Which may not happen, in that case they are not getting my money at all.
They couldve. Then again the game barely functioned unlike the cash shop which was working since day 1. (Point is, theyre 2 seperate things. Obviously they wouldnt leave the game the way it was because without the game, the cash shop is useless. Not vice versa.) Additionally, it’s a normal logic to have, it’s your brain you can do whatever you want, it’s their company, they can have any business model that want.
Not really, prolly why they havent changed it. We are but a tiny percentage of the people who play, more so pay for skins.
Well shoot, that prosthetic would be unseen under the gas mask. Anyway, what you want (and what other people want) is the ability to customize owned skins/colours freely.
N see, like you I believe that would be wrong, but not for the same reason. If yall rly feel scammed, then yall should also be happy to buy these types of skins at double the amount. 2 skins in one means 2 prices for one right. But then you guys would say no because its a bundled into one and should be priced only as one (as it is now). So there isnt rly any winning in that department.
Bottom line is, be mad at the fact you cant freely customize owned skins/colours, because if we were able to, they wouldnt be able to sell these “2for1” skins. We’d just purchase them seperately (as some probably have) and customize it to wear together. No use selling it together as a new skin on Fatshark’s end.
I for one bought the prosthetic eye. Then a few months ago, they released a double prosthetic eye in the colour blue for psyker. I didnt rly care except the fact that it was lazy as sh!t. Posted it on the forums to clown at the decision making. Probably was a low/bad seller to begin with so they needed to do something about it, which is reasonable.
They really should, but there would be people like me who understand from both the consumer and product pusher’s point of view. In essence, there will always be people who dont really care n just roll with it. Call it “buying an Apple product too early” sort of scenario.
I never said that they CAN’T do it, I just said that I think it’s BS. It’s certainly legal to do, so they can.
No. If they divide face and head skins, then I expect a division on the price too.
Would be pretty cool, but it ain’t happening.
I see, you think their model revolves around the cash shop and not the game itself. I don’t know if I fully agree but at least now I know where you come from. Should have started with that!
FK THE POWER, SCREW THE ESTABLISHMENT! Naw but seriously, thats the real bs logic. Youre ok with autonomy as long as it benefits you, and not for autonomy sake.
But you see thats where most people get it wrong. The average head skin is only one piece with a price range of 900-1400 aquilas (yes there are 400-700 aquilas head skins but neither Commissar hat/bionic eye is priced as such standalone, not worth talking about that price range, it’s bargain bin.). So at minimum, you should be looking at a hat/eye combo of 1800 aquilas. (Instead, Fatshark is giving us a deal and lets be honest, some people are mad that others get to capitalize on a 400 aquila discount.)
Not with that attitude. If they removed the locks, im convinced that anything is possible through enough people power. You know what would be funny, convincing most of the playerbase that the cash shop is EXTREMELY predatory and completely dismantling the work Fatshark has done to gain 5-8k+ players back. But as the numbers grow, so does the amount of spending, so does the reasons to not change the cash shop.
You definitely misunderstood. Lemme say it again,
Now let me say it a different way, without the heart, all other organs are useless.
Because even though it’s reasonable, it still angers people. If you arent willing to review bomb something that makes you legitimately mad with legitimate reasons, then you arent mad for a good reason. Or you shouldnt be that angry to begin with.
Bottom line is, being mad about one thing is kind of useless when you want the whole system changed. People were mad about locks, yes, but also about the resources/loot, and RNG being everywhere ; the whole system needed to be changed. Being mad about skin price isnt gonna get us anywhere.
Just checked, Commissar hat was 900/Bionic eye was 700. Your anger is worth 200 aquilas…
Between this and the can/can’t thing that I didn’t say neither I think you are just arguing with yourself, or someone else not present here.
I would say that it’s worth the full price of the cosmetic, because if I want both things I have to pay full price BUT HEY… It’s my anger and I can do whatever I want with it.
Neither do you.
The discussion wasn’t about autonomy, you made it about it because that’s what you wanted and that’s fine, but you are just arguing with yourself.
Just because it was the first point doesnt mean it’s the main point. Ive said it once or twice that complaining about price or even the recylcing of skins wont change a thing, that you people should instead be mad about not being able to fully customize owned skins and their colour ; if we were able to fully customize skins, it would be-
(I like how I even specified what my main point was.)
You were the one who made autonomy my main point when it wasnt. The autonomy part was just a side opinion on how you dont respect the ability of a company to make it’s own decisions.
That’s your opinion, I never said they can’t do something. You keep fighting on your own mind, I can’t help you with that because you are not talking to me.
I think it’s you who doesn’t respect the company’s ability to make their own decisions since you want them to change their whole system (which they intended with their autonomy) into something completely different, or else. That said, I don’t care about the gymnastics you are making here. You want the system changed and so do I, and judging by the voting a lot of people arent happy with it too, so…
What would be your suggestion on actions at a community level? Besides not buying.
