Paid Lootboxes is the issue here, don't let Ubisoft off the hook

[Razin_Shah]

Just because they dangle a free Elite skin in your face, somehow its all forgiven now. Heck no.

And before people say "cosmetics don't matter, they don't affect gameplay", then to you I say this issue doesn't affect you so your opinion is invalid and ignored.

This is for people who enjoy buying cosmetics. Now they put the new cosmetics in a paid lootbox to get people to spend money on them until they get what they want.

Hi! Yep we know it's just part of bussiness and of course they need to make profit. But i thinked in a idea where everyone wins! Except for the people who tend to "gamble", they're the comments #78 and #88 in this thread, can you provide me feed back about them?
I will write here a TL:DR version of it in a few secs.

Edit: Here's the TL:DR.

Basically ubisoft makes 100% profit out of this by adding a option to buy each cosmetic* separetly or in a bundle of R6 credits, keeping the loot boxes to "lure" gamblers, adding a way to farm them by a "profitable reown amount" for them, and finally making a discount in everything the last week of the event ala "hot sale".
* I'm refering to the "outbreak pack collection skins*.

all i hear is how bad lootboxes here, want to make them stop. stop buying them, i still dont see whats wrong with a company whose sole purpose is to make money, have lootboxes. as long as lootboxes dont give advantages to those who pay vs those who dont

Indeed we can vote with our wallets as we should do! But i just thinked in a idea where everybody wins, except for the "gamblers". My idea are the comments #78 and #88 in this thread, can you provide feed back on them, please? Thanks in advance!

So do you think it's a good or a bad idea?

THANK YOU. Holy ♥♥♥♥, I was getting so sick of the only posts being people saying "it's cosmetic, who cares if they're injecting gambling into a game where previously you could straight up buy anything you wanted. That has no negative impact whatsoever. Ubisoft are poor after all and need the money really badly so we just have to accept it guys. :(((("

Hi mate! Can you read the comment #98 in this thread and give me feedbacks of the TL:DR version of my idea to solve the loot box issue? It's a good or bad idea? I'm open to suggestions also thanks in advance for any feedback!

you got lots of good points but to be honest, them allowing for all people to get an Ash elite skin is the furthest they will go. its a incredibly low chance that they are going to do this. Plus I think its quite reasonable since the skins are obviously unique to the other elite ones. It be understandable if the Zombie Gamemode costs money to play. but cosmetics is the least of our problems

Hello there, well if it's "just cosmetic" why they can just give it away for "free"? Because they want to make profit of course, and that's perfect since that's the objective of a company.
Anyways I thinked about in a solution to this "loot box issue", the TL:DR version of it it's on the comment #98 of this thread, could you give me feedback on it, please? It's a good or bad idea? I'm open to suggestions on it! Also thanks in advance for any feedback.

Well you got good points, but Imo use the free elite skin as "bait" to calm everyone on reddit was a mistake. Now they can't fall back on it without a major back fire. And I agree it being cosmetic is a minor problem, the thing is I as a customer like to support a company / devs if they deserve it & there isn't any ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ disgusting paid RNG loot boxes in the middle.
For that reason I thinked in this idea so "everyone" wins except for the gamblers.
After all if this event is successful they can keep good "PR", happy customers and a nice profit out of it, and possible future events!

Hello! Instead if making "drama", I just thinked in a idea how to resolve this "loot box" issue with everyone winning, except for the gamblers.
