Hi,

PGI/IGP is always looking for revenue streams ...

How about adding modules that will boost the Cbill or XP earnings on a mech ... available only for MC.

- You could have a 10% or 15% cbill earning module that would stack with any existing mech bonuses ... charge 2,000 MC ?
- You could have a similar module to boost XP earning ... however, since there are presently no other ways to boost XP other than premium time ... there is more room to use larger values ... i.e. a module to boost XP by 25% ...

Neither of these are pay 2 win ... they are pay 2 make the game go faster ... which is one of the ideal ways to get folks to buy real money items in a game. In addition, the levels can be set such that the hero mechs still make more sense but a hero mech with such a module makes even more sense.

If you wanted to be truly devious, the modules could be made variant, chassis, or class specific ... or generic so that the module could be fitted to any mech,

You could even add different versions of the module and charge more for the generic version that fits every mech ... or give a larger boost for mech or class specific modules.

These would take a module slot of course and would thus force people to make strategic choices between modules that will help their in game performance and those that increase their rewards.

Anyway ... just an idea ...

A c-bill one I could see, and see buying. XP is so quickly gained on everything but spiders I wouldn't see much of a use for it, but all things considered a low boost to any mech in the 5-10% range for either would be a welcome addition to the variety in the game.

  • LocationEarth... I think. (Hey, you don't know if you're in the matrix either, do you?)

I don't think this would be implemented. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to earn more CB on my non-founders/non-hero mechs, but this would be completely P2W if it were MC only.
And if you can get them for CB it would throw the game's economy for a loop.

So I don't think you'll get it.
(Also, you didn't include a poll. All suggestions are supposed to have a poll now.)
