Just want to know your thoughts. I personnally think with the ability to pay for c-bills and "premium" accounts it will be unbalanced and feel like Roblox or a subscription game but thats just me. Just want to know what you think about it. P.S devs but if you haven't noticed there are beta key generators in youtube. Might wanna report that, close it down, ban them, and patch it up.

Considering the language usage in those YouTube videos, I'd say its a scam... and those names that say it works... none of them are registered here.... you do the math...

Generators arent real
I kinda found something like leaked files
Staff said they are not even worth reporting

and also I learnt this game built like a tank no way to cheat or pirate it.

All it would take is time and someone who has the time and sucks enough at this game and has the knowledge and tools to do it. Wow I used and a lot.

You can't pay for skill. An active player can earn the same amount of cbills someone else might pay for and but they same mechs, or the same weapons. People paying for things also can't earn any mech experience without actually playing. I think the balance will be fine if it sticks to that pattern.

[MrMasakari]

Sure you might be able to pay for exp boosts and creds, but you can't buy skill. Skill is one of the key factors , along with teamwork. As long as it does not become a pay to win game, It shall be fine. (I think the Devs confirmed that it wont be) Its just more, pay to level faster/get more money for the good stuff. Sure its an advantage in some aspects but its not really when compared to some other games, premium ammo that multiplies your damage stupendously etc.

Anyways all the vids i've seen so far look great, and the devs are constantly in touch with the community and letting us know the score and how things are going, which earns a lot of respect from me.

I agree with Artaire as long as you cant pay real cash for items that change damage your mech can do i dont see a problem with it, plus like everyone has said you cant pay for skill.

I think the game is still in early beta and no details of the business model have been released yet.

As such, I'm reserving my judgement and avoiding speculation until such time as details become known.

I dont mind if people spend hard earned dollars for items in an online game. And I wouldn't care if I ran into those players in games and I lost to them due to there advantage of purchasing whatever they buy. Part of the pleasure is game progression. I recall how fun it was progressing into bigger mechs in MPBT 3025. Yet there are power gamers who had much larger mechs than me in no time. And I'm fine with that too. Getting the most enjoyment out of anything takes balance including having a personal life. Power gamers tend to get sick of games real quick because they lack that balance and spend too much time playing a game meant for enjoyment. Its just a guess but I think people who bought too much stuff in game would get bored having nothing left as a goal.
