SOE used to be my most hated publisher but they have managed to get competitive again and have impressed me here lately and they are no longer on my "dont bother" list.. Im looking forward to ps2 and watch it fairly closely and am pretty sure the OP is dead wrong... Playing GW2.. |

Originally posted by dageeza I just googled dust 514 repair cost and found loads of articles from the devs of that game that say it will cost you $0.24 if you die, but it is not for repairs it is for insurance on the gear. You buy copies to replace yours if you die.
In dust you apprently lose all your gear when you die.
So OP got the wrong game and the wrong reason for the cost, he did get the dying part right so not all bad lol.

Originally posted by seanfitzs I don't know what im talking about yet your the one talking about sidegrades which I am not refering to..
Im talking about the fact that all the weapons which are not free btw because you have to earn ingame currency to purchase most them. Will also be aviable to be purchased with SC (Station Cash) cash which is the currency you can spend real life money on... But im done aruging with you people about this.

Originally posted by Tinybina Wrong again. You can get a boost in resources used to buy weapons and good things we are talking small % boosts too. But you can earn them by empire and just playing. SC will be used for COSMETIC stuff like skins etc. Please do not post until you have any clue on what you are talking about anyone who follows Planetside 2 or follows PSU knows this.

Originally posted by Woopin Im sorry, but you are wrong. There are multiple interviews in which Higby himself says that you can buy weapons with SC cash if you are impatient. Those weapons can also be unlocked through ingame currency. I don't even have to give a link... He says this in all of his interviews. It's kinda like Tribes Ascend.... Just hopefully not as retarded.
You start with 20 weapons. You unlock more as you play. If you don't want to wait to unlock... You can pay. |

Originally posted by TheBicBird I've been following PS2 for as long as it was first whispered in game and visit PSU at least once a day. It is from my understanding that you can't purchase weapons at all with station cash. Weapons are purchased with certifications in game and can be modified many different ways, but never in such a way so that it becomes a more powerful weapon. Spending station cash may allow you to get your certification points quicker, but as I've said it can't buy weapons straight out based on everything I've read. |

Originally posted by tkoreaper Watch the videos... When you see them tout the online menus/ingame menus for customization, the weapons clearly have an ingame currence AND station cash price on them. Weapons CAN be bought with SC, that is where the majority of their $$$ will come from. This will not put you at an advantage, as others will be able to easily unlock the weapons as well (hopefully). HIGBY has said, in multiple interviews, that you can purchase weapons with Station Cash if you do not want to unlock them with in-game currency (ie you don't want to wait). I don't care what PSU says, HIGBY is the creative designer for PS2.
ITS IN THE VIDEOS THAT THE WEAPONS HAVE STATION CASH PRICES AND IN-GAME CURRENCY PRICES. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohxc5flxhP0 Look at this video. Go to 26:38. Stop arguing about it. It's in the game. You can buy weapons with INGAME and with STATIONCASH. |

Bingo! I love the last vid too! I was going to post this video last night in my last post, but I wanted them to argue some more with me before I eventually shut them down with this vid. Don't ask me why lol... Anyways thanks for posting this, hopefully they see the light now and understand you will be able to buy things like weapons with Araxium (the ingame currency) and Staton Cash (SC) as it is right now. This might change folks since it is beta, but it may not. At first I hated this idea but then I started to think they need to make the game profitable some how so they can continue to bring us new content.
One thing I wanna ask you though TheBicBird (since it seems you know what your talking about) is did you hear when they mentioned something about being able to buy Araxium with Station Cash? I forgot what video it was but im pretty sure I heard Higby say something to that affect.

I didn't hear that, but I don't see a point.
I don't think Auraxium is actually the resource that we will use for vehicles and "direct combat" abilities (guessing that there are different, seperate "resource" types)... It seems more closely related to your character's guns/attachments. If that was the case, you would be transferring your SC into Auraxium to buy the same items you could have bought with SC. The tradeoff might be a better conversion factor from SC:Auraxium, but I doubt it. I also don't think Auraxium is used to buy certs... Those are character related, so you get those from combat, offline progression, etc (ie XP). The only way I see SC affecting certs is through XP boosters, one time VIP purchase booster, etc. |

The question that was asked on the E3 about pay to win was kicked into the ground with that question within 5 seconds.
The only money you want or need to spend is on COSMETIC flavors.

Originally posted by Mothanos The thing I like most about your post is that I gave proof of what I am saying. You cannot dispute the videos. You obviously didn't even read my post. I never claimed it was pay2win. It is pay2unlockfaster. You don't NEED to buy the weapons, but you CAN and you get them FASTER. We don't know how much time it will take to unlock the weapons or even if the In-Game currency lets you permanently unlock them (it might be a timer unlock ie blacklight retribution). We don't even know if the in-game currency unlocks will take a couple days or more than a week. And if you take what a developer is saying about a Free-To-Play game about how the in-game economy/unlock system works, you might want to look at every other f2p game. I'm sure Hi-Rez doesn't consider their unlock system to be pay2win, although a lot of gamers would argue that it is.
[mod edit] Read what I actually write, not what you want me to write so you can argue more. Watch the video I posted, go to the video time I mention. It clearly shows that you can buy weapons with Station Cash.

Originally posted by TheBicBird well most of the weapons u are ablew to perma buy with ingame money(weapon parts) in BLR ... myself have a lot of weapon parts perma unlocked and stuff for depot, armors and items .. the only this bad but not extremelly op is the Heroes .. the rest seems pretty good balanced and if it wont take ages to unlock weapons and stuff perma with ingame xp for Planetside 2 it wount be a problem if u can also buy weapons faster with Station cash .. at least it wont be for me so the only thing they need to make good is dont make weapons(or any other thing that can be bounght with ingame money) ask for a ton of xp to unlock it perma and make the xp gain good even if u dont use xp boosts ... from what i saw in E3 streams the xp was quite nice if it wasnt xp boosted (dont think it was) and now we just wait and see the beta soon and how things will turn out from there on |

Originally posted by demiqus ^^Exactly^^ It would make zero sense to have it cost you to repair armor with rl money when engineers do it for free. Besides if PS2 is anything like PS1, get ready to die so many times you can't count, because that happens a lot. It's not an annoyance though as you can just respawn back up get your gear and get back into the fight fast.
What happens when you log off your characters????..... |
