Money talks and is a good incentive.
Below is a list of things that I as a player would spend money on.
Please add your ideas to it.

Blue Prints GÇô Reason I got the Dren package - $100usGÇªa little pricyGÇªbut worth it. Come out with the Basic for each in Blueprint.

Limited time Blue Prints GÇô Would love to have advanced and proto suit blue prints so I could run them constantly, with disposable income IGÇÖve got. Month/Week/Day options that after that time period the blue prints go away. Varying Prices for each i.e. $1 for a day of an advanced Blue print. $5 for a week for Advanced. $20 for a month of advanced. $5 for a day for Proto.

Paint GÇô I would love to change the colors on my suits/vehicles - $5-20 depending

Choose your own design Paints GÇô Love to put a target on my characterGÇÖs suits/vehicles. $25-50.

Limited time Temporary Skill Points GÇô (Month/Week/Day options) GÇô Say options to buy 100k/500k/1mil/5mil GÇô Not sure where price points would be for thisGÇª

Corporation Logo GÇô yeahGÇªwe can pick from a selectionGÇªbut having one put together for the corp that no other corp could useGÇªtotally awesome! $100GÇªor maybe more.

Corporation Logo on Dropsuits GÇô 5 aurum eachGÇªitGÇÖll add up the way some of us die or the way some of us kill em. (Noticed that Squad leaders get shot first!)

Orbitals GÇô There have been games that I would have liked to drop oneGÇªthat could have turned the tideGÇªor just got that darn sniperGÇª say $1 or 2 per each. Or have different types that can be bought that go with the different type of eve shipsGÇª

District Set GÇôUp GÇô having a map and buildings designed for your corporationGÇªwith buildings where you like themGÇªset your price (probably in the $1000-10,000 depending on difficulty)GÇªsomeone might actually pay itGÇªand then you have another map everyone can useGÇªthat has that corps symbol all over it.

Keys GÇô I would love to lock my car so that non-corp or non-squad members would have to hack it to use themGÇªand it would give them no WP! $5-10 per each GÇ£blue printGÇ¥ set of keys. Set would lock one vehicle you have so you would need multiple if you want to lock multiple vehicles.

X-mas/Hanukah/etc GÇô Skins for the holidays. How cool to have an elf hat or menorah gun sight for **** and giggles. Would love some antlers on the front of my car while driving over the red berries. $5? HeckGÇªjust new skins would be cool if not paintsGÇª

Giving raw, permanent SP would make this game P2W. No. 6: Should be in the game for free. 7: Read #6 8: Bluedot wants to pay for OB's now? 9: .......

I also think that if CCP took the time they spend making sexxeh suits of questionable usefulness, and instead gave us the ability to buy and apply those patterns to any suit we choose, they'd make a killing in AUR sales. I could see "paint buckets" being sold in 100 use packs for a moderate amount of money working well. (If it's permanent, that's a cashflow problem, and if it's a single copy, people buy only one and make it their favorite fit.) Tons of ways for this game to generate an income that don't involve pay-for-power. ¶Gêƒ__ Gò« Gû¿GûêGûêGûêGòáGëíGëíGëíGû¬ « GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GåÆFAT GATGåÉ pÇûGûôGûôGûôGûôGûôGûôGûôGûôGûôGûæpÇùForum Warrior LV 0 (900/1000XP) ¯Gò¦pÇôpÇù

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 9793	Posted - 2013.10.30 22:36:00 - [14] - Quote The CPM is having talks with the EP on what sort of things he wants to see for sale in Dust 514. So far I don't mind what he has planned but its going to require much more thinking on the CPM and the community's part to figure out how to go forward from there in monetizing more things. Just CCP Rouge needs time and touch base with the developers in Shanghai to see all the options available to him and to that end the Community. I am for one all the more for paints and customization with both temporary, limited, and permanent options (ie you buy a paint color bucket but it adds a price to every drop suit with that scheme you lose, in secondary market it consumes paint chips) Upgradable merc's quarters. A definite NO to the orbitals. BPOs I am a bit iffy on. To that end I would like see a new mechanic put on BPOs a time limit on them. that for (x days) said equipment is bpo'ed afterward you have to get new ones and skill into them. Then we can sell trail packs for good value, like an amarr trail pack 5 usd for a month but limit 1 per customer. Temporary Skill points. I am a bit iffy on this one as well. I would however like to see a new skill queue system implemented that allows passive skills to be dumped in portions to an arranged skill you have set and any and all skill points you earn while the queue is active goes towards that skill level. Once meet the pool returns to neutral unspent. The reason for this is I would like to see a sellable 'booster' of sorts that allows you 'convert' unspent SP into flex SP. Flex SP can be assigned anywhere on the queue and the skill will take effect if enough sufficient flex SP is meet. As time progresses assigned flex SP is converted into spent sp at the same rates earned in the skills in the order you assigned flex SP into while still earning regular SP on top of that. The booster expires when all flex SP is spent. One slot no time limit outside passive eating all of assigned flex points up. Flex points are assigned/spent first always. Sell this one stupid cheap (like 1-2$ max for 5 million flex points) What I would also Like to see is more types of boosters For example Active Booster (100 Battles) Same rate gains but only counts down per battle. Price should be competitive with average player base battle consumption (so lets say 100 per week is average the 7 day and 100 battle active will be similar priced) Map Design Think Halo Forge system. I say give everyone a free map 'slot' (ingame fees apply ie costs appox 20 million in materials to design a map) to share with friends and invite enemies over to play for free. Have a charged service to publish map (something cheap like 1 usd a month) maps designed are put into its own pool which has a special EOM screen to vote on the map. Popular maps and new maps are rotated in. The very best designed maps should get a review quarterly by CCP, poke the community to write reviews and if its really good add it to the rotation of standard maps of Dust 514. Designer gets goodies (like free passive boosters for a year) additional map slots can be bought. Holiday stuff if ever, should be free. The last thing I want to add is player forum avatar changes or purchases to include any suit the player has access to, keep it cheap (50 cents) to buy and free to swap or 50 cents to swap. Corp Pride Banners, Building Tags (PC fights where the corp own that building and everyone will know it) Flags, Larger emblems, Corp Colorable Outposts to corp colors, Striping (so players can still customize their colors) will adorn the corps members on the field.
