Remember.
Never pre-order.
Oh, I am a card carrying member of patient gamers, so I was never going to pre-order. I just find the vagueness and lack of information on this game somewhat infuriating.
As someone who envangelized the virtues of HD1 for years hoping for a sequel, some of the things they are doing are really dissapointing, and spoiling my hype quite a bit.
True. That being said I got 900 hours in deep rock galactic and still dont have all the cosmetics, and I don't really feel like that's a grind at all somehow. So I guess it matters how often they drip feed you new stuff.
Cosmetics are one thing, but this game also offers functional items, no?
Its also premium currency, so there is not "$2.50" package. There is probably a 9.99 minimum buy in. So the first crap you buy is always 10 bux, no less. And naturally shop items will be priced to mix-match their buy-in tiers to always leave uneven balanced
HOWEVER, that latter point isn't such a big deal, given a premium currency can be earned. Even if it is relatively slow, it adds up.
It is yet-another-cash-shop? Absolutely. I see some pros and cons opposed to paid DLC from Helldivers 1. Mostly a wash. I was OK with monetization from the original. I feel mostly OK with the monetization here.
Still waiting to see how it all unfolds. But given the trend of awful cash shops, this is at least not a negative as far as I am concerned, and practically stands to be "OK". That is, I an OK with it being an avenue for developers to make money.
Yes, but they offer those first, and there's like, 1000% more cosmetics than usable stuff, so you pick up all the upgrades in a few hours, the rest of the time is new beards lol.
Most people are "impatient" so they know that won't matter much and people will just psychologically buy, buy, buy.
That's the norm, unfortunately. I wouldn't be shocked if it was the same in HD2.
Was snow boots earnable or p2w in first game. You know, boots that lets you move at x2 speed on snow planets and avoid being bugs food.
They confirmed the Armor Set, cape, and MP-98 are exclusive to the Super Citizen edition and cannot be earned any other way. Likely the Ship Game too but no confirmation there.
The Steeled Veterans Warbond is just automatically unlocked for you with the Super Citizen Edition, meaning you don't have to earn or buy Super Credits to unlock it and start earning the stuff in it.
also i dont like the fact that you have to pay to get new armor and weapons.. from what i gathered it is stats based.. and looks different, shoots different.. its not only a "cosmetic skin" ontop of a weapon you already own. Fred here has brought armor 2x better then yours, and a weapon that shoot electric arcs while you still pew pew with youre normal bullets devs should be ashamaed.
As for premium edition items, same, but you can still upgrade your version after launch.
