Python Mk II & Updates To The Gamestore

There is a difference between voicing displeasures and ruining a livestream by spamming.

Yes absolutely vote with your wallet (which works!!). Post on the forum. Say you don't like it in the livestream.
For sure. The reason people spam it so much is simple: It gets drowned out by the engineered engagement otherwise. I don't condone harrasment of the devs, or any kind of dubious activities. Spamming your discontent is the most harmless way you can do so in a place where you can't be ignored unlike the forums, etc. In its form it's disruptive as it can't be ignored (Which is why spam is normally not a good thing), but you'd rather see this than anything else since it's engagement and not players just... Leaving.

I despite unfair monetization where a problem is created to offer a purchasable solution. It's why I refuse to pay for youtube and would rather skip the ever growing ads.

But, Elite has always had a grind, it wasn't invented in the last few months to set us all up for a payable solution. As long as the rest of us are not paywalled, and as long as they don't manipulated the mechanics to ''encourage'' spending ( yes its already grindy, but its been like that for years) then I personally don't care.

Its clear frontier is trying to monetize and make themselves financially viable considering events of late, its a company, not a charity. If we want Elite to grow, it needs to make money. If this monetization helps them fund Elites continued development, I don't give a hoot if some guy is flying a planet he paid a grand for!

Also its clear Elite is trying to expand its player base to encourage casual gamers to get involved, there latest development news is clearly focused at making it easier for casual gamers to join in.

Let me remind you, I hate pay to win, I hate live service manipulation tactics - BUT Frontier are getting a lot of flak without good reason.

It will be interesting to see if Star Citizen fans / youtubers criticize Elite.

Personally, I'd have sold access to ships for ARX, which would make them available for purchase for credits from stations for that player. The player could then buy as many as they want and can afford, and would have to rebuy them if necessary.

I'd pay ARX for access to the Cobra Mk IV, BTW. I missed the kickstarter that made it available. It wouldn't bother me to have to buy it for credits afterwards.
 
I'm missing a lot here :( Can you help me on the rebuy ?
1. Am I correct, rebuy is the price in credits per ship if YOU get killed ?
1. If I take a Python Mk2 for arx - how much is its rebuy ?
2. Is it possible to replace an individual module in the finished assembly ?
2а. If 2 is positive. If I take a finished assembly and replace part of the modules there how much will cost a rebuy on this ship ?

Thanks.

  1. Yes well more precisely a percentage of the price in credits of the ship and modules fitted at that time.
  2. Zero credits as long as you don’t change any modules.
  3. Yes.
  4. A percentage of the cost of the modules fitted at the time of destruction.
This is the same situation as the free Sidewinder many of us started with it doesn’t cost you any money to rebuy it until you change modules and you cannot make any money selling it or part exchanging it.
