Currency and Shop

[Noctareus]

I feel like this would change a lot about this game. I love rec room very much and am thankful of it but I think it would be nice to have a shop. After playing games you would get exp and money instead of a random box. After you could go to a shop and buy things suck as clothes, paintball skins, furniture for dorm room, different event rooms, etc. Please take this idea into your consideration. Thank you.

Btw not recommending a cash shop just in game money

I agree! very good Idea Mr.Badger. I hope the developers see this.

[Blink]

I agree! This would also give level 20's a reason to play the game. Yes the random drops are fine, but fully being able to customize my character would make me look more experienced and not so random.

[Excelsior]

I agree and also possibly a way to sell items that you got from random drops for some extra cash. Also a trading system would be good also. If this is added though item dupes should be made possible though.

[Priscilla]

I agree!!

[Noctareus]

I just feel it would add more of a goal working towards buying something and then getting it...

[et883]

Great idea! I really like the xp idea instead of getting items you already have in the boxes. Smart idea.

[Excelsior]

Items could also be assigned rarity and prices adjusted accordingly. Rarer items would be less common in random drops but still possible to obtain in random drops. They would also have higher prices.

Also this would add a great spot to implement microtransactions! As long as the clothing prices aren't EXTREMELY high, like so high you HAVE to use microtransactions to unlock them, not many people would mind.

I also like the idea of shop exclusive items that are unobtainable in random drops. Also game exclusive drops, like in Quest for the Golden Trophy, should still be unable to be bought.

Responding to Excelsior

I agree with your statement but if they do add microtransactions there shouldnt be money only items they should be more expensive so it would either take longer to get or spend a bit of money to buy

[pilot998]

Great Idea! would prevent getting the same item in your box over and over again!

[Excelsior]

That's what I was talking about Badger. Like you can buy currency. When I said you have to use microtransactions I mean't like they shouldn't make it so the clothing prices are so high that it would be extremely hard to get them without buying currency.

Examples of things the shop shouldn't have

Clothing So Expensive It Would Require Buying Currency To Purchase

Clothing That Can ONLY Be Bought With Real Money

Also the reason I want microtransactions to be added is because I love this game and it amazes me that it's my favorite VR Game out of my entire library, is free, and has no microtransactions. I think the devs deserve some of dat cash money.

[Grey Acumen]

Honestly, I understand the benefits to having microtransactions, but there's just no way to avoid the inevitability of these unwanted aspects eventually slipping in. I was there when steam added the whole community trading and market, and I've even benefited from it, but I'm not going to pretend for a second that it hasn't completely shifted the focus of how many games are developed and received by the community.
I'd much rather have a simple "turn in 3 items, get a new random item" and also allow any item to simply be gifted to another player. (there will need to be some sort of confirmations to ensure no hacking, but I'd still prefer this to actual market transactions)

[Jango Mandingo 웃]

I would like to see this too. A shop would be great. Maybe also the chance to trade with others.

[Noctareus]

Really wish the devs would see this

[Noctareus]

Also just saying shops and currency no microtransactions if not wated
this is all an idea

I love the idea of being able to spend the coins made in quest. Saving my money to buy different outfits. Even if you had a cash option to purchase if you did not want to save the coins erned. REC Room should make some money from the players it a free game.
