65k for the Omega booster? That's a ******* 33% increase from the previously released ones.

Are you on crack?

That's the greediest ******* **** I've seen since War Z's server fiasco. (now called Zombie Survival Stories or some stupid ****).

Don't give me that supply and demand bullshit either. Purposely limiting items to raise the demand doesn't justify increasing the damn price by 33%. That's shady as fuckin hell.

How hilarious it is, that after all the bullshit I've waded through on the development team, and not minding the length of time it takes to create a decent game, It's the marketing team that makes me say **** you and your game.

See you on the PS4 if you ever ******* make it there with you greedy assholes.

Did you really just say that?

Must be another fox news loving american.

So let me put this a way that your Reagan worshipping mind might understand.

Remember the dis-proven Laffer curve? The one where if you tax at a higher rate you get less taxes? Well supply and demand works kinda the same way. This means that by pricing these items so high, CCP has actually decreased the amount of profit they could make from these items. (i know incredibly simplified but consider the audience.)

If priced at fanfair pricing, people may have bought enough of these boosters for a year, spending hundreds each. Instead they decided to overcharge for them and most have turned away.

Dear Mr. Republican (I can't think of a worse insult tbh),

I know your educational system is horrible, and you live in a neopotism based economy, so I forgive your cro-magnon views on the poor (btw jesus loved the poor and hated the rich). This is reality though, we are looking to engage in a MUTUALLY beneficial relationship with CCP as consumers.

While I have no problem walking away from the omega boosters, I do have a problem with mismanagement in the marketing division of a game company I greatly enjoy. They are throwing away GOBS of money, and that type of descision making process does not inspire confidence in the future of this game I enjoy.

Oh and to the people complaining about baying more in Euros, be glad we don't have many Tea Partiers or american republican/christians. I know I will gladly pay more to keep that type of society out.

I get that they cost more than twice as much as a normal booster, and that's honestly fine.

But you know what isn't fine? The cost of passive booster and active boosters to begin with. (I won't even get started on the bonuses they give)

The idea that someone's paying roughly 30$ a month for a dream that hasn't been realized. Twice the 'industry standard' for a subscription fee, for a game that's horribly incomplete and riddled with problems. It's straight up offensive. Then add in omega boosters that hike that up to $50+ a month? Talk about a kick in the balls.


But you know what's even more sad than the perception within CCP that this is fine to do?

The fact that people are still going to buy the **** out of it, because they want to 'stay competitive' and because it gives a definite advantage to the people who have it. It's the very nature of a pvp gamer's mentality. Gravitate towards the best items, take any advantage you can get... even if you have to pay for it.

I don't care how CCP justifies this. Boosters have always been Pay to Win. Even if their own definition of pay2win doesn't see it that way... Their customers do.
