Who's gonna buy stuff in Planetside MarketPlace

[Rumblepit]

i want an oompa loompa and i want it nowwww.......nahhh ill have to see what they have, but the camo sounds cool, also im interested to see what comes with premium.

Quite honestly depends on the price. I'm not going anywhere near any skin if it costs $5 or more, because honestly I can go buy an indie game or a pack of indie games for that price and have a lot more fun than with the idea that people are looking at my l33t skinz. It would be more worth it to me if I could go 3rd person and check myself out.

But you have to realize that you get the base game for free, which you don't do for indie games. You are probably gonna play Planetside 200 times more than you will of those indie games without paying a single dime for it.

That is why you shouldn't be afraid to put even that more than 5$ on a skin, cos the game itself was free for you.

I don't think about the price of a single item. I have, for example, played APB for nearly 2000 hours combined. Also combined I've paid ~160€ for the game. The prices on APB cash shop are quite steep, even 40-50€ for a permanent weapon. It's steep, but I don't mind, cos the game has already provided me close to 2000 hours of entertainment, I want to return the favour.

That said, I closely observe the amount of money I put into the game. I don't mind putting in 50€ for that one gun if I want it, then I just don't buy anything for a few months to even out the "13€/month" rule I try to sport.

I definitely want to support this game and I will try and spend what I can. Unfortunately real life prevents me from spending a lot but I do hope to buy something just to support the game.

On a side note, I think the skins do serve more than just an aesthetic purpose. The zebra skin we saw, for example, would make good camo in a snowy environment. It might not be much but it might give you that one extra second you need to get the kill or get out of there.

Ill will definitely get all the skins possible, though i may buy a booster here and then just to unlock stuff a bit faster for customization.

Im just glad that most "upgrades" are really sidegrades that just help define a role and not actually add power.

I've already got $100 worth of station cash ($50 + 2xpoints).

[The Kush]

I plan on buying almost everything. I already bought $100 in station cash waiting for the game

[Envenom]

If they put prone in I'll buy boosters from the store.

IF you love it you'll spend LESS than you would normally for a good game? I don't get that logic...

This is F2P so the devs RELY on people conducting microtransactions. If you love the game and actively make the decision to spend very little money in it, imho you're actively contributing to a problem that affects the longevity of the game and will only get worse (for the life of the game) over time...

What the exchange of station cash to dollars? I have over 1300.

[LegioX]

Going to atleast spend about $50.00 USD on the marketplace. That would be avg price i would pay to even play the game (if it wasnt F2P). Now if this game turns out to be super awsome. I might spend more

[capiqu]

Figured it out. Yay I already have $15.00 to spend.

[LegioX]

Man i just hope this game doesnt let me down like BF3. I waited to long for that game only to have CODgaism shoved in my face.

[Heaven]

Like I've voted, if its worth buying then most likely I will.

Hope they have some cool looking sunglasses to purchase, I also wouldnt mind if they had a ''Rat Look'' Skin, that I would 100% buy espeially for a MAX and vanguard!

I really,Really,REALLY want some crazy off the color skins for aircraft. All i can think about is forming up a group of guys or possible making a small air wing squad and having everybody pick crazy colors. Then we can give ourselfs the nickname "The Flying Circus!!"

Just like the Red Baron and his flying circus, everybody will fear us when they see us fly over the battlefield
