The intent is to provide GMs with a sense of pride and accomplishment for banning different players. As for cost, we selected initial values based upon data from Tim and other adjustments made to the old source before launch. Among other things, we're looking at average per-player mesos earn rates on a daily basis, and we'll be making constant adjustments to ensure that players have challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and of course attainable via RWT, hacking, and vote abuse . We appreciate the candid feedback, and the passion the community has put forth around the current topics here on our forum and across numerous smegas in game. Our team will continue to make changes and monitor community feedback and update everyone as late and as infrequently as we can.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand microtransactions. The intent is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Austrian economics most of the money will fly right out of a typical gamer’s wallet. There’s also EA’s opportunistic scheming, which is deftly woven into its monetization- its corporate philosophy draws heavily from Hobbesian literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the sense of pride and accomplishment, to realize that they’re not just looking at average per-player credit earn rates on a daily basis- they say something deep about challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and OF COURSE attainable via GAMEPLAY. As a consequence, people who dislike Star Wars™ Battlefront™ 2 truly ARE armchair developers- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in EA’s existential catchphrase “It's In The Game,” which itself is an ironic reference to Norah McClintock’s young adult novel Truth And Lies. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated nerf herders providing candid feedback in earnest as EA’s avarice unfolds itself on their computer screens. What sheep.. how I pity them. And yes, by the way, i DO have a Star Wars™ Battlefront™ 2 tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the Twi'leks’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 60,000 credits of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel armchair developer
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you unwashed scrub? I’ll have you know I’m at the top of the damage range thread, and I’ve been involved in numerous gm events on the server, and I have over 300 confirmed ht kills. I am trained in holding down triple throw for hours and I’m the top dps night lord in the entire server. You are nothing to me but just another scrub to white. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of alliance members across the server and your alt accounts are being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your main. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can killsteal you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with one of my multiple max level classes. Not only am I extensively trained in map stealing, but I have access to all the chaosed and perfect weapons of Fryslan and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of this server, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit genesis all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, noob.
