Crowns to expensive....

[delpoi 0]

I know I'm probably gonna get the obvious replies "it's free to play" "crowns being inexpensive will ruin the game cause of insurance" "don't be a cheapskate" now that's covered cause I won't reply to any of those things and ignore them anyway we need to talk about the ingame economy, the crowns are oddly stacked in amount and cost far to much the whole in game economy needs an overhaul cause people who are casual players won't pay it; before you all jump down my throat saying the games not for casuals sorry to say it but the game is for everyone and if its to be a success it needs to appeal to hardcore and casual players. 

 

At the moment to buy just a jacket one item of clothing it's 850 crowns for perspective there is an amount you can buy of crowns that gets you like 650 for £16 odd not enough even to buy a jacket, you need to look at other free to play models everyone will hate the comparison but it's not the game it's the economy fortnite 2000+800 V coins £19.99 you can buy the season pass and earn cosmetics as well as other things and have enough left to buy an outfit; that's just me comparing the monetary value not the game end of the day I'm invested in the game but the crowns don't make sense 4000 crowns at a cost of £80+ is a joke to get 4000 V coins it's like half of that please sort this. 

 

I want the game to be successful but if you charge the prices you are now I can't see that happening and no disrespect to the game or devs I've been on board since day one I want to see this game grow.

I don't know if someone will use insurance. 60 Crowns for not loosing object that everybody will easly have... Even an entire game with succesful loot doesn't worth that insurance that cost quite 2€ for 10 minutes of game.

Insurance is not useful, too expensive, and not linked to the lore of the game. Never should exist in a survivor game, that doesn't make sense.
Particulary from bohevia interactive that allways aimed to have skilled games.

For obtaining plans, you need to get crate. Those crate have diverse kind of rarity. This is linked to how much the other play put crowns.
So you want a military grade crate, you are really dependent of the other.
And as crown is a real money, ( and it's expensive ), it will be hard to get those crate.

1 weak after de 0.9, i fell like that all founders spent a lotof crowns, now people doesn't pend that much. We are very lucky if we have blue crate.
You pay 1€ to have the luck of having one blue crate and you are not sure to getit. So imagine tou pay 9€ to only have this blue crate to have 1000 materials, 200 chemicals.... That's crazy.

What is crazy, is the fact that you pay lot of money, being dependent of the others players, and the money is very linked to the core game.

I would rather pay 30€ this game and have no crown to the core game + have crowns for cosmetics.
I would rather pay also a kind of season pass, like 10€ for 2 months or 3, which allow me to have a kind of "betting food" system which allow me to bet food to get better crates.

If the main point was to find a way to not get esly acces to those crate, well, that's a good point. But it comes with the frustration for the player that feel like it's not upon his skill, but with his wallet.

The feeling is so bad that pretty ruins my game.
I didn't feel like i spent a lot of crown ... But i've sent almost 500 crowns from my founders pack in less than of a week... WHich is incredible. 

I'm pretty sure we can discuss and find a solution which can make bohemia won money, have crate with no easy access, and don't give this frustration to the player.
