More cash shop options

Postby kfv7 » Mon Sep 03, 2012 11:39 pm

I know the game is in beta. But I really like it, and to hear that just 2 guys are developing it with a small budget its not nice.

I have purchased silver to support the game, but once that you can make your own nails there is no real point in continuing doing it.

I dont know, maybe you have things already planned on this subject but not implemented yet. Maybe some kind of aestetic items that dont affect gameplay will help; or even some things that will, like the service of resurrect a fallen character for a really high ammount, like $100.


Prolly I will get flamed because of this, but I like more the idea of a bigger cash shop that the one picturing Salem shuting down.

Aesthetics yes, it's already been suggested before in pre-com as well. No word if that's gotten through (not sure how much Jorbtar have to say about how the game is monetized)

Resurrection... mmm I'm going to have to say absolutely not. We don't really want immortal combat characters that can never be killed because the faction just keeps resurrecting them. There are lots of less gamebreaking possibilities for that though, but it's still infringing on Pay 2 Win.
It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.

I didnt mean instant resurrection, or even made in game at all. My idea was an option in the web page that resurrects your char after some time pass by (a day, a week, i dont know), just to make death still have bad consecuences. And maybe those resurrected players will purchase even more silver to speed up his restore.

Ain't gonna be no resurrection homeboy. No doubt in the future you'll be able to purchase horses, cattle, God only knows what but when ya die? You're dead and that's how we like it. Also, yes it's a two man Dev team but it's backed by Paradox's money so I'm doubting the funding is inconsequential especially since they are taking so damned long to release........

My point in this thread is not to install a debate wether resurrection its right or wrong, I dont really care about it.

But if they have a larger budget maybe they can hire more people and make improvements faster. On this subforum there are a lot of great ideas, like the one that says to implement natives. Will be great to see a settlement raided by natives or viceversa; and a NPC in Boston paying for native heads or something like that.

If they lack resources those ideas wont come fast, or even wont come at all.

There are a lot more things that are planned to be implemented into the cash shop, be it cosmetic or for late-game (domesticated animals being one such thing).

Right now the main focus of our developer, loftar, is to develop the multiple server support. That's why we're not getting so much content, he's pretty busy with backend things :)
I never managed to figure out something clever for my signature on Paradoxplaza, and I doubt I'll do it here either.
