Increasing the varium and credits per package is a great suggestion, but compensation is what questions us, ED Players. People who have purchased varium in the past may feel that it isn't fair, but compensation is totally optional. I would recommend both increasing the Payoffs + Compensation because it makes the players feel more "that's better" for their characters on the ED.



T.600 -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:07:42)

Hey Wiseman, would it be possible to do the same thing to the varium in your inventory? So say I had 10k varium now in my inventory, could it be changed into 18k? I think that's really fair compensation and for a maestro programmer like Titan it won't be a problem. :D



My Name is Jake -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:08:15)

I like this idea, it would make varium much more worth buying, at the moment most of the packages arn't worth buying, IMO.



Sky Drifter -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:14:30)

Great idea.



The Joker X -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:14:36)

Great idea wiseman! Supported.
Bring out the new prices ASAP! ED is in dire need of them.



helloguy -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:18:06)

Like I posted earlier the less you ask on on a certain suggestion the more likely it will be acceptable if you add things that would benefit us the player more they will shoot the idea down really fast than if you wouldn't have trust me it's better that way in the end

@Anyone who wants compensation

I would love compensation, and think it would make the players happy. However as much as I am for the idea, we are all here to test this game. I feel that compensating characters for past varium purchases while a good idea, is unrealistic. Lets try and look ahead and not ask for too much. Raising the Varium in each package by 80% and adding 5k more credits is plenty for me. Obviously either way I would be satisfied, but I believe that just altering the package amount is the most realistic scenario. I made a post yesterday directed at Cinderella which pretty much aimed to say that their needs to be a balance between profit and player. Lets not forget that AE (specifically Titan and NW) still have to make money. Raising the Varium per Package ratio would be a huge win for the players, while not giving compensation would allow AE to profit.

All in all this is a great idea, and of course I would love compensation for past purchases. But lets not get ahead of ourselves, or to "Varium thirsty" for that matter.

Cinderella -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:20:23)

I do want to point out that it's a suggestion- even with the specifics. We're open to rethinking the pricing (again, I don't actually set the prices, I'm a glorified secretary), but I can't guarantee anything or any timeline.

Wouldn't this work for compensation?



TankMage -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:28:09)

Great idea Wise, Would be nice to see a new varium system put in place. And it looks like this one could really work :).



goldslayer1 -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:29:12)

well
if compensation for past varium cant be done, i would atleast like a shiny new achievement.
"ED supporter" perhaps?



Mr. Black OP -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:31:03)

@above
ddnt u say dont ask for 2 much?



goldslayer1 -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 1:46:55)

@zman
well idk if AE ever thought problems with pricing would come up as they release enhancements.
altho i still would be fine with just varium increase.

I think that the current varium prices are perfect for an Epicduel without enhancements. Therefore, we need this re-pricing NEXT UPDATE. In addition do (quoted above) if possible.



RKC -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:39:10)

This is ok infact this is awesome, as long as they add varium to those already bought varium before the varium increase. Then woohooooo go go go!!!!



Egoraptor -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:44:13)

Instead of having it like buying varium it should be Membership like AQW and Herosmash its alot cheaper.



Ashari -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:45:57)

Love this idea Wiseman! The in-game costs have gone up a lot with enhancement slots for every weapon now, not even counting other things like brainwash, cannons and boosts. This would really help get the packages' value back to what they should be worth in-game.

The big thing I'd like to see is more promotions being included in the 5000 Varium package. It seems like that package has been forgotten since the Beta promotion and it would be great if that package had some of the same benefits as the 10,000 Varium package. $35 is no small sum either.

As for compensation for past purchases, I'm probably going to ahead and guess that's not going to be possible. Think of it like this, if you purchase something from a store one day, and then the price drops a month later, you can't go back and get the a refund on the difference. Anyway, if the Varium pricing were improved so much, I'd be very happy just with that. This change would nearly double the value of the $50 package!



edwardvulture -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:49:52)

Can this happen after nonvariums get a buff? or do you see them as 2 turn kills to boost your daily championships?



RKC -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:51:20)

@Ashari

ED is quick to get our money and not quick to give us something. typical.

Why cant we just show them our receipts I still have mine, and for those who lost their receipts well its their problem.



Mr. Black OP -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 2:54:20)

@above
that wld bs since AQ ddnt need them to give u the tokens



RKC -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 3:00:03)

^This is not AQW quit comparing ED to other AE games.

ED is a PVP game not like AQW where when you buy something with coins its only for show and doesn't give any pvp boost. In ED every varium is so precious it can make a big deference in your battle.

Its fair. If the staff says we cant track all the players who upgraded and give them varium, whats the purpose of having a receipts. I could show them when I bought my upgrade and everything and its solid prof I bought varium before the varium boost.



T.600 -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 3:00:45)

^I agree with you RKC...for once. :3



ND Mallet -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 3:11:53)

@T.600 and RKC You won't get the extra varium from your previous packages if they do implement this. There's just no way it can be done since they would have to add the varium manually and there would be millions of transactions to go through to add varium onto. It doesn't matter if you have the receipts or not. I doubt Titan wishes to go through hundreds of players who even bought so much as a 10 dollar package and adjust their credits and varium to compensate for the price decrease of packages.



T.600 -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 3:15:06)

^I meant that they should add the value to our inventorys, doing it for previous packages would just be a bonus. I'm pretty sure you don't have to do it manually. You could just do like add (whatever %) value to varium....



RKC -> RE: Just a thought on varium pricing. (5/22/2011 3:16:03)

@The ND Mallet Guy
Blah Blah Blah.

It is possible but what you are saying is that they can't do it because they are to lazy.
