Cash Shop Content at Launch

[Lonehunter]

This is to find out how important Visual Customization is to you at launch. This means things like soldier/vehicle skins, tinted windows, decals, colored headlights, anything that is a visual change but doesn't change game balance.

So on a scale of 1-10 how important is it that these things be in the game at launch? 1 being you're ok with the bare minimum or default options and using a content update after launch, 10 being the full shop including all options should be ready to go by the release date.

I will be browsing and buying. I expect new stuff to be available regularly.

Actual visual skins, I'll only buy a couple to make myself look unique, once I'm happy with that I doubt I'll buy much more unless there are "rare" or "one-time" type events going on or whatever...I'm a collector like that.

But I already have tons of station cashed purchased (yay triple cash day). Most of that will probably go into the exp bonuses, premium account packages and all that crap, as long as it's worth it.

Well since it's their only source of revenue I guess it'll be very important...

That's right. For me it's a 1, but for SOE it's assuredly a big 10.

I'm here to play a game, not to look like a pretty little "unique" snowflake.

You are a unique snowflake though, don't let ANYBODY telly you differently.

[CuddleMeLoki]

Well they need it to make money...

[Gonefshn]

It's gotta be extensive when the game launches. People that decide to try the game will need to see that these options are available and extensive.

[Lonehunter]

They can still have options to make money. We know they want to implement a subscription model as well, that could mean more loadouts, more characters per server, faster xp gain.

For the normal F2P crowd they can sell xp bonuses, weapon sidegrades, I'm sure they can think of something to charge for, that won't be a problem.

But to me there is a large difference in 5 visual options to choose from, and 20.

[EVILPIG]

Launch will be the opportunity for players to be the most unique as possible! As time goes on, more and more skins will be seen on the battlefield.

[Kipper]

Largely unimportant to me, if its there, i'll use it, if it isn't, I'll content myself with exploring and trying my very best to blow [enemy] shit up

[Shogun]

its important to start with a big stash of custos to start generate cash immediately.

but it is also very important to get new stuff on a regular basis. outfits want to build their unique look, and therefore a good collection of choices need to be available at all times. don´t want to see every outfit in zebra stripes and heart windows

[Aractain]

Its gonna be the primary thing I spend money on sooooo.... yeah.

[Soothsayer]

I say five with five being the most important and 1 & 10 being least important.
