Spent over 400$ on this game (lost count, 400$ is the lower limit), still think the warbarge monetization is dumb.

From the war room.
yeah but to unlock the experimental lab you have to spend so much aurum. or wait for a very long time not only for the cooldown but also wait for enough components. I am very disappointed with ccp that they decided to take this route of locking content behind a timewall. If i want to wait in order to enjoy a part of the game which is the experimental lab, id go play star trek trexels.

Honestly though, get over it. Dev's have mortgages too. You have to spend a hell of alot of money someone blew 120k aurum and only useful thing he gets is 1 weapon a day 120k??? He totally did it wrong then, you only need like 30k if you straight line for it.
I can promise you that this is not correct.

I am not complaining about them monetizing the game, I am complaining about them doing it stupidly. BPO's, Respects, and SP boosters are pretty much the only things worth buying in the game.

The blind CCP fanboys will defend them to the end of the universe. Even when people are merely pointing out that there cash grab could have been way more beneficial to both the players and be more profitable for CCP at the same time.

FW boosters could be one of the biggest money makers.
Team deploy and real faction stuff (proto < faction < officer) would be one of the things that would keep veterans buying boosters and spending AUR.
Pre Rattati CCP had some escapees from North Korean prison camps in charge of monetization and now it seems like some blend of Candy Crush and a used car salesman in charge

Psssst you're not paying attention to the entire conversation.
The idea would be to offer a monthly package in addition to the existing system, where the items in the package totaled to be worth month then cost of the monthly fee. It would allow players who are dedicated to playing the game a lot to get a discount on the items they use frequently such as boosters.

There was no other way for him to obtain what he purchased for AUR? None at all? Or does he just want instant gratification and had buyers remorse? **** go try out Warframe and you'll understand what an expensive Cash Shop looks like.
Hehehe yeah I am a sucker for convenience..... then immediately suffer the whole..... I could have done that properly and had a reason to play the game......

It was monetized before Warlords 1.0. Most of us are upset because AUR ads are now quickly making an appearance on every menu in this game. Sincerely, An adult working full-time that does not own a basement Full-time employee with part-time job as well, no basement, one shed. I am sick of the "alert" status of not having a booster and having unopened weakboxes. And that's my beef. People are actually annoyed to a point of complaining because of a (!) appearing on the screen. But who knows, to each his own. I guess I don't sweat the small stuff.
I believe all you are doing is exercising some basic self-restraint.
Sounds like it is too difficult for some.

Warlords 1.0 has been prety much tailored exclusivly for player trading... without the ability to trade to other players.
CCP have been pretty smart about it, everyone runs out and buys 100s of keys fo rquafe BPOs, they don't get the ones they want so sit hoping for player trading to come in in order toexchange the one they have for the one they want. in the mean time they think ooh what the hell, i'll buy more keys, least i can just trade em off if i get lucky again.
then april comes and no player trading, then sugust comes and no player trading, then december comes and no player trading but folk still keep buying keys to trade them BPOs all the while player tradign is kept liek a carrot in front of the donkeys (us) noses and CCP gets lots of pennies to spend on other projects that never see the light of day

The majoriy of players don' t mind devs making money. Plenty of people buy boosters and BPO suits. There weill always be minority of players that feel entitled to have everything for free. But with the strongboxes and Warbarges, they have a point.
The Strongboxes: Purely a lottery. I know rattati thinks extra rare drops are cool, but these arent soley rare drops, these are lottery tickets. A rare strongbox that offered somehing great would incentivise me much more towards buying keys than having 1000 strongboxes containing 90% crap. Somebody in charge thought 800 aur keys should give out entry level skillbooks.
Warbarges: Grindfest. No wonder Jadek came up with selling components. I don't mind that they take some time to build up. But that time is far too long without spending a lot of aurum on it.
I'm buying a merc pack today, so i'm putting my money where my mouth is. None of the aur will be spent on eiher the warbarge or keys. Its just not worth it.
Redline for Thee, but no Redline for Me.
