New Store Packs

[Eegore]

You know, in all honestly, why would someone in their right mind(provided they read the forums) spend $70 on a pack to get an instant town, when the town bells arent even working properly? or are they?

Because they either have a good income and would like the fashion or because they simply looove the fashion. It is also good during early server lifetime (in case we get new servers during Open Beta)

Yeah I understand that, but the Few who probably buy it will just get killed and get it stolen from them, because lets be blunt here. It's going to be blatantly obvious when someone starts a new village. It will look like a noob base on a village claim. Immediate sign. I mean, wouldnt it be smarter to make it cheaper so people will feel more comfortable buying it multiple times if they have to? Not just get raided and quit? I figure the longer the player plays, the more comfortable they will feel spending money. Thus more money to improve the game.

I keep waiting for something to appear in the store that I feel is worth the money. I guess I will keep on waiting.

You mean: "I will only pay if it makes me win" XD?

What the hell are you talking about? The only thing I would ever buy from the store is cosmetic items. So far, the only things not tied to a skill pack (which I don't need since I got the skills on my own) are hats from a mystery box. I prefer being able to choose what cosmetic item I'm buying, not having to rely on getting lucky. Also, none of the hats I've seen pics of are appealing to me. Some of the outfits that come in the skill packs are neat but as I said, I'd only be buying the pack for the outfit and they're not even worth $15 to me let alone $30 or $70!

If they start adding things like buckets of paint that I can use on my house, flower pots/beds I can put around my property, dresses, and bonnets where I can see what I'm getting and they're under $5 each, I'll start spending money in the shop. Until then, there's nothing that I feel is worth my money.

This. Why spend my own $70 when I can just find some flamboyant mayor with an undefended noob camp and steal his $70 outfit instead?

Also, anyone wearing the Redcoat outfit is just KOS to me.

Honestly, at these prices I'm much more likely to steal the items from someone else than I am to ever buy my own from the store, and I'm not even a particularly aggressive player.

I've never really understood people complaining about prices. If it's more than you think is fair, then don't buy it. The only things I DO understand people complaining about are the prices of food and housing because they pretty much require those things to survive.

I personally think the prices are a bit high for these new items, so I don't plan on buying them. I won't, however, be whining about the prices. And I don't feel somehow entitled to receive these items at a lower price just because I want them.

Some great pictures, by the way! Some of the hats look pretty neat!
