Pro and Freebie Worlds
Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2011 6:28 pm
I have been browsing though some of the "sneak peek of update" threads on the forums for the non-beta testers, and there seems to be some discontent amongst some people about the prices of items...
This doesn't really bother me at all as those luxury items SHOULD be very expensive, since they are so powerful, but a thought crossed my mind while I was reading all those complaints...
What if, there was a new world(s) created that had the platinum section disabled entirely. This way, youngsters/cheapskates who don't have credit apples can play with/against each other without having to compete against the 'pros'. Luxury items could be (slightly) cheaper here and some of the potions and other platinum items could be made into (rare) quest rewards and drops, just so they can get a taste of the 'big boy' Celtic Heroes experience!
This is obviously not a priority, and I think that freebie player should always be allowed to play on the main worlds with everyone else, but this type of of setting might help to quell some of the complaints people are posting about platinum and high item prices. Just make it clear to players that there are some limitations to the freebie server and it shouldn't hurt your business...
