30$ to keep boosted for the whole month for active/passive boosters is 'around standard?' (That doesn't include enough aurum to buy any suits or items) That's twice what the game we're joining up with (Eve Online) costs to play per month! I'm not saying CCP doesn't need to make money. I'm saying they'd make MORE money if they lowered the price points. You get less from each individual sale, but it becomes a much more attractive purchase and more people will be willing to spend, increasing the overall volume of sales. They need to make their profit off of making more people want to buy aurum, not by gouging the people who'd buy it anyways!
Absolutely right.....if they issue a half price merc pack sale or a sale on gear, i'd be on it.
To be honest, they should give you more aurum with each increasing bundle. You get 20000 aur for $10 and 40000 for $20. Why not....45,000 aur or 50K aur for $20?
All in all, I agree....give us more bang for our buck. |

I'm spending $0.50 per hour for game time and I'm usually ready for an Aurum boost when the active booster runs out. I don't care to figure how much I'm spending per hour on suits. I make enough ISK that I have a variety of suit fittings to work with.
Pretty cheap entertainment in my view even when you double that to cover doing the same for my kid. Cheaper than either our cable TV or Internet access.
Like the way this man thinks |

Votes for a VK.1 BPO suit, anyone? If so, how much would you pay? 100K aur sounds fair
Edit: this isn't a serious suggestion. No way can CCP put out a BPO VK.1 suit. I was just curious if they did, how much would you guys pay for it?? |

Ill buy aurum only for bpc items at this point. I'm not going to pay real world money for valueless gear that will be lost via a bad spawn mechanic. ^ This ... I will only buy BPO's and boosters with it... since I don't want to waste 20 dollars (specially that this is already insanely expensive here in Brazil...)
Ay CCP...don't stress, I'll be replenishing AUR if I run out of it. I'm married so I don't have wild weekends anymore.... and I factor gaming into my leisure budget |
