Will probs have cosmetics if it's free to play so dw

#

honestly i think they'll go about it in one of two ways: free to play with micro transactions for cosmetics. or pay to play no microtransactions

somber mirage Sep 17, 2021, 5:30 PM

I’m ok with cosmetics being paid for but no like buying resources for money or weapons or stuff like that

later this week they will be releasing a blog post on their website that will explain how transactions work, and then we will know how PTW the game will be. it will be up on here https://clockwork-labs.medium.com/

#

so lets wait and see bois, keep an eye on that thing! You can also connect their blog posts to your email address if you wanna get notifications about the game in your emails

thorny mason Sep 21, 2021, 2:36 PM

#

no P2W obviously, but P2Cosmetics need to be strictly supervised (if that business model is chosen), and i don't like it for a social/RP game. It can make IRL economic discrimination get a foothold ingame. In other hand, FTP with P2C allow (not better but) bigger playerbase

best way to combat pay to win is just not have the game free

#

if the game goes free to play im just not even gonna bother as MMO's, especially of this size, are expensive to maintain

I think it'd be cool if it was pay 2 play but you can craft different assortments of armor (instead of buying cosmetics)

neon lily Sep 26, 2021, 5:41 AM

would be the best outcome

#

dont want another free to play multiplayer game that shoves in app purchases in your face and even has p2w

I think you should be, because it isn't fair that rich people don't get to be better than poor people.

#

if you can afford a computer, you can afford to purchase $100 of ingame goodies

#

!!!!

#

I also think if you don't make a purchase over $20, you should be limited to wood and stone gear. Fishing should be restricted to those who truly believe in this game as well.

carmine field Oct 4, 2021, 3:59 PM

So u mean to give privileges to the rich and not give any to the others

half ermine Oct 4, 2021, 3:59 PM

yes!

exactly now youre catching on.

Thats how it works irl, thats how it should work in here

keep the poor peoples heads down

half ermine Oct 4, 2021, 4:00 PM

It would be rude to discriminate against those who aren't myself

It's a sacrifice that must be made

THEY POSTED A BLOG ABOUT MONETIZATION

#

READ IT

#

I HAVENT YET BUT THEY FINALLY DID

#

WE HAVE ANSWERS

#

Given that BitCraft is a community sandbox MMORPG, by this point (in this long post) it should already be clear that for us monetizing access to BitCraft is pretty much a non-starter. Long-term it will live and die by the healthiness of its community. Part of a vibrant community and bustling economy is that the world is full of people. We also believe we’re building something new and interesting and we want as many people as possible to have access to it. It simply doesn’t make sense to restrict access. For those reasons alone we believe BitCraft must be a free game at launch and remain a free service indefinitely.
There’s another important point to make about free access to the game, though. MMOs are an inherently difficult game to make. They take a lot of iteration and many years to perfect. Personally I would feel much better letting players decide at what point they feel the game is good enough to spend their money in, rather than potentially misleading players upfront. It gives us more room to be experimental without feeling like we’ve broken promises that players paid us to deliver on. In the end, I think that will result in a better final game.
With regards to what we plan on selling specifically, we believe that we have some very interesting and innovative ideas in the space, but we’re not ready to share the details at this time. Just know that any decision that we make with regards to monetization will be aligned with this philosophy.

there is pay to win

oak granite Oct 6, 2021, 3:54 PM

if you read the entire blog you get a better understanding. This is just the final part on what this would mean for bitcraft

#

but thankfully, this is going to be a free game

#

and you wont be buyin things that can be earned

#

You will however, can buy things that wont help you advance or give an unfair advantage

#

skins for example, can be bought
