Lack of ways to support ED financially?
- Thread starter TruthSeeker
- Start date
Weirdo
They should go the way of world of tanks. Have "premium" ships that are so OP you have to buy them to even be competitive and after a few months when plenty of players have spent their hard earned cash for them nerf it into the ground then put the next "premium" up for sale.
It's either pay to win, subscription or cosmetics, and FD so far have avoided the former two.
I agree though, I'd like to support the game better as well. Merch options could be better, and we're still waiting on that hula bobblehead. Outside of that I can't think of anything.

Call me insane, I just want to buy things because I like them.
They should introduce loot boxes EA style.
if they really wanted to make some serious coin, they would release C1 seismic charges in the ARX store.
Premium modules. I like it. I think they should start by selling the gimballed AX weapons starter pack for $39.99. Or you can upgrade to the advanced AX Slayer pack for $79.99 that features gimballed "heart tracking" technology and comes with the experimental Krait MK3.
woah woah woah
if you want to spend a ton of your cash on pixels than you should try star citizen!
premium modules and ships really only benefit a small percentage of the playerbase (those of us that can budget and afford it)
While I would love to spend a few hundred $americabux$ on special ships and modules it would really create some huge gaps and anamocity between the already fragmented community. Remember some people don't have well paying jobs and even come from poorer countries.
As long as it doesn't become a financial competition I don't mind spending money for special ships and modules but there should ALSO be a way to grind them out in-game without spending any cash. Maybe have a separate currency like "Galactic Latinum (tm)" and allow that to be earnable in-game (like ARX) with the ability to trade that between players.....creating a truly player-driven economy.

What a bizarre request.
So that's what they call P2W these days?
No, FD has a strong stance on this and i hope they maintain it.
IF you really want to support them, buy an arx pack every month. Even if you dont actually spend it.
And if you run out of things to buy from the store, well - we'll cross that bridge when we get there
Careful, folks...
That way P2W lies.
EDIT: Yeah - that.

To be honest, I wouldn't be against a pay to progress model, bit like the shark cards in GTA 5. I wouldn't need them anymore, but I would of used it in the past I think, provided they were reasonable.
That's not gonna happen, and good. Also accepted doesn't equal being right. And also Frontier doesn't need "support" - they're a big corporate entity which is publicly traded and laugh at your pittance lunch money
Here's a mad idea:
Frontier might feel that current pricing is fair and making them enough money.
