Lower the cost of MC, or increase the amount of C-bills you get per match.

If you want the community to continue to grow stop trying to squeeze every penny out of them!

100,000 per win at 8 minutes a game is 7 games an hour
is 700,000

You see the problem with this is that some people only have about an hour to play. It will take 10 hours of play to get just 7 million ... Sometimes you don't even win and are subject to even less amount of c-bills.

I know I'd start buying MC if it were cheaper...and I had fun things to spend it on.

I agree the cost of MC is way to high you should get double the MC for the amount they make you pay. Cbills earned is also low and requires a huge grind to buy and upgrade mechs. I understand they want to make money but this is not the best route to go down imo.

Totally agree. The cost of MC is way to high. I think it would help the community expand and continue to grow.

How much would you earn with a Premium Account and Mech bonus?

my founders mech without premium time earns about 25-40k more C-bills per match and it tells me that with premium time I could get another 15k +. Some games lately when I have good games 9 or more assists with 1 kill in my founders jenner I have pulled in 175k. You can make a lot of money still, you just have to work for it because nothing is just handed to you in this game, or in life.

And you paid for all of that too, with $$$. Get real dude, it shouldn't take you as long as it does to get as many cbills as you have. Even with the bonuses that you have. Time is precious.

Thanks for the life lessons though. LOL

More? However the Premium account, founders mechs, etc. are all just an added modules to the game to get more MC out of everyone. Why is it that all of you people are okay with paying what you pay to get what you want out of this game???

I know some people that have easily paid over 500$ that's absolutely RIDICULOUS! You should be embarrassed you paid that much money! Then the cbills take so long to accumulate unless you drop even more money into the game? Come on! People have simply walked away from this games based on that alone.

Why are you so mad at what other people spend on the game? How other people perceive value? You should be embarrassed for spending with your own pockets for everyone.

PGI needs an income to maintain and develop a game. If you don't like the prices or the way the system works, don't play. There are lots of other games like you said.

I'm not mad i'm disappointing. If you want everything it costs TOO much, It's embarrassing. I disagree with it, but this is the only mech game out there right now. PGI knows this and is exploiting the community. Not playing because prices are outrageous is a pretty ****** option.

I never said there are lots of other games either.

Maybe someone with an intelligence level higher than you should reply to this topic in a negative manner.

How much money do you think they make?
Yet where are all the mechs?
Where are all of the weapons?
Features?
Where are they?
Bug fixes should be instant.....


OR MAYBE they should hire some people that actually know what they are doing instead of paying a staff that doesn't produce results.

Ya know what, don't even bother replying because you don't seem to understand worth a damn.

Why? If I make 7 digits annually, $500 is pocket money.

Nobody is forcing you to do anything, or exploiting anyone. Go away.

Not everyone makes 7 digits annually.
Personally attacking me ? Your ego battle isn't being very productive.

With what you just have shown I doubt you make 7 figures.

You don't make any sense what-so-ever, and the only thing I have done is make this topic.

Eventhough i agree with you, bumping topics is not needed, especially doubleposting while your topic is still the third or something like that topic in the list ...

That's fine. Pretty sure you're just going to ignore anyone who doesn't agree with you anyway.

That sounds like a "petty attack" on people who have spent more money on this game than you have arbitrarily decided is too much.

I wouldn't ignore someone that came back at me with an intelligent worthwhile reply. MC price needs to come down, or cbills need to be increased per game. That's it.

While I have no problem with the MC prices, I do wish the cbill earnings would be increased. Right now the grind is too much for DHS, ES, New Engine, Mech, Weapons. As for some people who hate seeing the same topic over and over again, well then maybe you should get the developers to increase the cbill earnings. I can almost predict if they the cbill earnings were where they were at 8v8 you would see alot less threads about this.
