kingpowerlord -> Rares and rarity score (6/11/2012 12:48:58)

a few questions i want everyone to answer today:

what do you think is the point of item rarity?

what do you think is the point of rarity score?

To promote people buying weapons, which also increases profit for the devs.

Same as above.

No, but I am less inclined to sell rares and I tend to only buy rare items.

AE games are "Freemium" - From Wikipedia -
quote:

Freemium is a business model by which a product or service (typically a digital offering such as software, media, games or web services) is provided free of charge, but a premium is charged for advanced features, functionality, or virtual goods.[1][2] The word "freemium" is a portmanteau combining the two aspects of the business model: "free" and "premium".
Basically, what MBO said above.

I love rares.
I never sell a seasonal or perma rare. I have over 100K rarety score and no plan to stop collecting awesome weapons.

* Although I don't see the point of buying 25 charfade swords just to raise one's score like some people do. Yeh you know who you are -.-

are you a rare hunter? To a very small extent, yes.

if yes why? Better to keep weak rares than weak non-rares.

They do it just to get high on the Rarity Leader Board, which is a waste. They're wasting so much real life money they could save to buy rares that come in the future. Not have like 30 Gammabots. No need, one is good enough in my opinion. Wasting all that money to buy like 30 of something isn't worth it just to get on the Rarity Leader board in my opinion.

Tell that to AVA. More than 40 actually and a few Bio Borgs.

Guys I made a point by NOT naming anybody when I talked about the over stacking problem. No need to point fingers, at least not directly.

If u guys know me I am ur favorite player on collecting rare weapons ;D and I got on the leaderboards by collecting non-varium and varium weapons and I'm not one of those guys that stack up the same weapon over and over again trust me its better to collect different items,Its about quality not quantity[8D].

I have My Ultra Rare Alpha weps. I think they are under scored. They need to be 5k rarity.

Quote of the year coming from a Rare Collector. I 100% agree with you. Finally some see's the bright side to collecting, not pile up on one item. e.e



Stabilis -> RE: Rares and rarity score (6/12/2012 21:50:42)

Questions:

What do you think is the point of item rarity?

The point of item rarity is to decide how awesome an item is depending on it's costs, it's restrictions (who can use it, what are the conditions, where is it, when is it, why and how is the rare available), and it's level of craftsmanship.

What do you think is the point of rarity score?

To rank items depending on their levels of awesomeness or limitedness.

Are you a rare hunter?

When it comes to items, I am a utilitarian. When playing games, only then will I exercise utilitarianism, but I will never do so in real-life. I do not collect "rares".
