Cost of private leagues?
|
Have there been any hints or info posted regarding the point cost of private leagues? This would help me (and others) decide which supporter package we'd like to buy.

" Where did you read that leagues will be paid in the first place ? "This is too good for you, very powerful ! You want - You take"

Custom leagues with custom rules will be available, however I do not believe a price point has been set for them yet.

Thats an interesting point, on the one hand I think it would be nice if they weren't that pricey, it would be good to have a private league for friends etc and I believe the devs would want this to be something everyone can do for a reasonable price.
However I am not personally aware of the actual cost in terms of resources, if it has a prohibitively high cost then the devs may be forced to charge a higher price. I am going to make the assumption that the devs would be entirely reasonable on this, and that as it was suggested it wouldn't be too costly for them to implement a system. Perhaps someone with more knowledge than I could weigh in on the resource cost from the devs perspective. |

It would be fair to have a cost per player base system
If you want a small league for just a few friends it should not be nearly as expensive as a 200 player league Smoke free and vaping since Apr. 3, 2012.

Yeah i think it would be great fun, would also try and push people away from making their iligitimate private servers for them and their friends.
Don't argue with idiots, they will bring you down to their level and beat your with experience.

The devs should look at games such as Tribes for great ideas for "leagues". Tribes: Ascend servers cost $6 a month but give you complete control over them and allows you to set mods, change game rules and mod maps/game modes
if they have a system such as this it would be great if some could also set up a private server for them and their friends to play on |

Recurring fee for a custom/private league is, imo, to be expected. However, as ANIOLATORV said, the amount shouldn't be prohibitive for regular players - they shouldn't think thrice about paying for a custom league for them and their friends. 6-10$ a month sounds very reasonable.
Stratifying the cost by player population is, again, logical. If it was possible for larger league players/members of guilds running them to chip in on personal basis, that would be a great addition also! Like, let's say a custom league for 200 players would cost 500 diamonds a month, yeah? Now either you make one player pay for it, but that's quite a bit of money and they would have to set up external donation box or somesuch. Or you could enable "league diamond pool", into which all the players could chip in with their 10 diamonds or whatever, thus amounting to enough diamonds overall to pay for the league, but not requiring one person to pay the full price. One more thing - I'd say that for custom leagues, the rules should be absolutely unrestricted. Wanna make bosses oneshottable? Why not, it's your gorramn league. Of course, this would mean the characters couldn't transfer into "Default" upon death. I'm not 100% certain on how to establish whether the league is actually easier than the default one, but I'm sure someone will come up with something :) Overall I can say I'm very optimistic and excited about the idea of custom leagues :) |
