No one is buying zee keys anymore. Vhat are we going to do? CCPMidas: Fear not little toady I have devised a NEW scheme to get zee players to buy zee aurum! I call it zee warbarge. Players can upgrade their warbarges to do mostly pointless things, but zomevhere down the line we promise them something useful, but don't tell them where, or tell them exactly how manzy upgrades it will take. Zey may only upgrade very slowly unless they buy componets for zee aurum. CCPToady: Oh zou mean like one of those sthupid phone games? CCPMidas: ZES exzachly! CCPToady: Excellent sir!

I think monetization is quickly becoming the driving force behind all of Dust 514's new "features", but I will agree that some other games are doing monetization incorrectly.

You have to go in and claim the products before you hit your cap at which point manufacturing halts. Jesus effing Christ. Don't they have automation in the future? No, I don't want to go manually claim all of my sh!t every day from the various modules. Make that feature automatic.

RemingtonBeaver Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 1791	Posted - 2015.02.03 19:50:00 - [15] - Quote I wonder if anyone has put together the time waiting on components versus the aurum it takes to fully upgrade. Then we can have how much time is worth in aurum. Then we can put that up against the ISK conversion. Then we can start charging for our mercenary services by the hour. Thanks CCP, now I'm a prostitute. Go Here and vote! 1 like is 1 vote!

If you want to turn down the ads a bit, that's fine, but understand that they're going to exist in one form or another because they want to get players to actually spend money on the game. I totally understand where you're coming from, just remember that the game actually has to make money too. Honestly I much prefer a subscription based model anyways.

Aidualc LATINOS KILLERS CORP Dark Taboo 49	Posted - 2015.02.03 20:01:00 - [20] - Quote I only spend 20 USD in this game... (Mercenary Pack), basic gall scout BPO, Toxic sub BPO, 40,000 AUR for RESPEC, the best choice ever... A good invest of AUR it's buying boosters or Apex, a BPO. buying Keys or expendable weapons-suits are bad invest. Maybe I could spend another 20... or 25 (veterans pack) but no more. Many people pay $19.00 for Destiny- Dark Below DLC... and it's a crap.

Kierkegaard Soren Corrosive Synergy 680	Posted - 2015.02.03 20:05:00 - [27] - Quote My only main issue with the war barges that components can only be earned through passive production via the facility and then through direct Aurum purchases, which means that we have yet another feature that isn't directly impacted by us, the players, actuall playing the bloody game. Now, if components could be armed through salvage rewards, or even better yet, constructed by melting down certain types or tiers of assets into "goo" that can then be reconstructed into components, then we have a feature that will make me play the game more, because I'm scavenging crap for my crap war age in an effort to make it less crap. It's not rocket/war barge science, folks. Dedicated Commando. "He who can destroy a thing, controls a thing."

Something like NeoComm Aurum alerts or whatever. These (!) just rub it in your face that you have however many hundred/thousand strongboxes that you'll never have keys too and can't sell unless you spend a ridiculous amount of aurum on them for something most would agree are not worth it. You can't even sell/destroy the strongboxes. Edit: i think it's the fact that there is an alert for something that will never go away, every player will ALWAYS have this alert. That's just stupid.
