Who's gonna buy stuff in Planetside MarketPlace


I know the whole marketplace is still sort of a mystery but we kind of know where is heading....LoL type model skins and XP boost which is great IMO.


Most of us here are Planetside Vets so Im wondering if you guys already made up ur minds in buying things to support Planetside 2.


Is kind of weird because I never spend money on free games...Havn't spend a $ on League of Legends and I play that game way too much but with Planetside 2 is different....I want to buy some skins already just to support the game. I probably won't spend much tho unless the skins are awesome.



So are you guys planning on buying stuff already or do u think boosters and skins are meaningless.....or just simply waiting for beta to see if this game is worth supporting?

I'll be buying up all the camo patterns along with any of the classic skins from PS1. So I'll be doing my part to support the game.

I think the only time i'd fancy getting a booster in game is if I was going through with a group of friends and fell behind on their schedule. Generally Id feel a bit odd using one.

Though in PS that restriction of content for those that fall behind wouldn't be there in the same way. So I think for me it would only ever be skins and any other goodies they dream up.

Don't know about boosters... feels a bit like cheating to me.

The camo patterns looks pretty neat. I'm most certainly gonna buy some of these.

For additional stuff... gotta wait and look what's there first.

I also feel like I should buy something at least to support the devs for the great work they're doing.

Re: Who's gonna buy stuff in Planetside MarketPlace


I voted "not sure, have to see if selection is worth buying".

As of right now, all I know that they're selling is XP boosters, camos and weapons if you don't feel like unlocking them normally. I can say that based on that alone I would most likely not purchase anything, unless it's a really cool looking camo, otherwise any of that stuff is unnecessary to me.

I hope they'll put out a lot more interesting things than what they've mentioned so far. I really want to support the game any way I can, but I just can't see myself buying most of the stuff unless it's amazingly cool.


EDIT: One thing I'd be willing to pay for would classic PS1 skins, as mentioned in other threads.

If I find the game enjoyable I will definitely buy something every now and then simply to reward the devs and support the game. What exactly I will spend it on isn't that important and I will choose something to my liking. I could easily however do without any extra skins and boosters so they won't be the primary reasons for paying rather thing I mentioned earlier.

I'm probably going to by some skins so I feel that I've contributed something to the game. I most likely won't by any boosters unless I end up very far behind my friends or the players in my outfit if I join one.

If they did they a Space Marine or Imperial Guard skin I'd buy that 100 times over .

I think just "I will", I "will not", "Depends" options would've made 2 times more sense, why so many pointless options?

I'll be buying quite a few aesthetic upgrades as well as most of the functional upgrades. I expect to spend slightly more per month than I did on Planetside, probably in the $15-20 range.

Oh I forgot, some fuzzy dice and a hood ornament if they have that in the shop. I'm gonna need to pimp out my sunderer. Also, some balls for the sunderer that hang down from the trailer hitch on the back.

So we have an Idea on what people are planning to buy...I want to know if they want skins or booster or both...or why don't they think about buying right now.

I forgot to put subscriptions are buying weapons....My poll would've been way bigger then.
