So i was wondering what the chances where of getting purchasable coin packs (eg pay money for coins) to be added to the game for those of us that wouldn’t mind paying to bypass some of the grind? Also i find at the moment that I’ve been playing to unlock stuff, but not really been enjoying doing it.
Idealy i was thinking small transactions for larger amounts of coins. Realistically no one is going to pay a pound for a pack, but i recon id pay £5 for around 12000 coins (allowing you to grab 3 new classes if you wanted). I'd be interested to hear what everyone else would find acceptable for this.
Another thing that would be great, looking at the micros on some mobile games, would be a one off purchase of around £2.50 for a x2 boost to be applied to coins earned. That kind of price is affordable to everyone, and still cuts out some grind.
So because you have a full time job you think the game should cater to you? They call that being self entitled. If you play JUST to unlock stuff but don't enjoy playing then what is the point in playing the game AT ALL!? I never understood that mindset, people that want to unlock everything right away, it takes most of the fun out of the game and gives zero sense of satisfaction for earning your way up to the top. Maybe it's just me but games are supposed to be a challenge. Also requesting a coin boost like mobile aps!? Something that is highly criticised and widely hated and you want to force that garbage on a game i paid for? HELL NO!

Of course I don’t play just to unlock stuff, but when half the gameplay variants revolve around stuff you have to unlock, I have to unlock stuff to enjoy the game to its fullest. If it was just cosmetics i could grind as a wanted, with the coins being a bonus to playing. However I want to unlock the other variants so Ii can have fun playing them. I’d like to play more team vanquish and gnome bomb, but as the pay-out for it is around 20% of what I’d generally get from a garden and graveyards I can’t help but feel I’m wasting time on it. I enjoy playing the game, I just don’t enjoy being made to grind for the ability to use all the features of the game (especially as it can take me a week to earn 40,000 coins).
I don’t want to unlock everything right away, however for me the slow pace of unlocks takes most of the fun out of the game and i find that i get zero sense of satisfaction for winning a game, sometimes as MVP of my team, when I get less coins than the lowest ranking person on the enemy team. Maybe it's just be but games are supposed to be fun first. Take your idiotic belief that anyone who doesn’t conform to your petty standards should deserve your verbal bile and perhaps consider the views of others and occasionally actually read a post before filling the reply with your rage covered idiocy.
As a final note of clarification, this is presented as an OPTIONAL purchase, for those who won’t mind paying for content, and who will find the game more enjoyable for it. If you don’t want to pay, if you feel the grind to be more challenging, fine. Don’t pay. Everyone’s happy.
