...2051? =)

More block IDs! It's a modder's paradise!

- - - Updated - - -

Maybe we can get super meta and have them for sale at Traitor Joel's...
+1 Block id 10000 dukes

+1 framerate 20000 dukes

+1 zombie on screen 50000 dukes

-1 HUD indicator 5 dukes

Good thing I have admin privileges on my server. Getting all of those dukes is as easy as using the command line.

 

[Gazz]

Well, duh, why else would it be called a "Season Pass"?

PAY $1 USD TO UNLOCK THIS SAFE 50% FASTER! (Don't you ♥♥♥♥ing dare.)

 

[fragtzack]

Hopefully the enemy HP health bar will be in xui.xml so we can easily mod that abomination out.

Now you've done it. Someone is going to believe you.

I feel I should say now that TFP is NOT announcing micro transactions.

As long as they allow players to sell their gold...

This will never happen.

Now if you were to charge up your Dukes account with $ and then you buy survivor cards with dukes (getting a rebate for quantity both times! Yay!), then you're dealing cards that you didn't even pay real money for!

And of course you're "dealing" cards instead of "spending" them because you're either reminded of dealing playing cards or at least a deal that you want to do because you get something out of it... while the alternative sounds so terribly expensive.

And this is how this stuff works...

You should write tutorials...or better yet self help books. Put Tony Robbins out of business.

 

[TSBX]

Yeah I'm glad you guys are above board on that type of stuff. DLC is bad enough, but loot crates are awful.

EDIT: How much is the early access streamer package?

micro transactions confirmed! Will not be announced just yet! :smile-new:

For $1.99 you get a .01% chance of getting a Max quality steel pick axe or ak-47. This is now the only way to obtain these items. Good luck!

per Madmole:

It's not something you pay for. It's something you earn.

For $5.99 you get 0.01% more luck.

 

[Demonoid74]

2 hours of fast looting = $5

2 hours of fast crafting = $5

2 hours of faster 15%run speed = $5

Bullet Resource Pack = $5

=======================

Make TFP rich! lol

But seriously , any game that has pvp , player competition , time constraints AND microtransactions is a gold mine!

None of this is complicated or a secret.

You don't need to hire a psychologist to figure out that kids (young and old ones) will fall for the same tricks over and over if you just paint it nicely, add enough fake layers between real money and ingame spending, and watch your terminology.

Humans have been humans for thousands of years. Generation n+2 has always viewed generation n as lazy and generation n+1 with mild disapproval while generation n viewed generation n+1 as oppressive and generation n+2 as outdated and useless.

If you agree that this is all obvious you're not generation n. =P

 

[sillls]

Giving TFP's the idea to charge for every timesaver and upgrade with real money is like shooting yourself in the foot.

Don't do it.

Trust me. They considered the idea 5 years ago and discarded it. Nobody gave them anything new to chew on today.

Or a historian.
