GS cost for Mk III gear is far too high

It is easily 10x what it should be, it not more. Especially at Tier 5.

 

My Tier 5 modules vary between 1800 and 2800 GS to level them up to Mk III. By contrast, it costs around 250 or less to recover a Mk IV upgrade kit.

 

Using the shop’s GS evaluation we get 270 GS = $0.99, rounded to $1.00 for simplicity. This means upgrading a single module costs around $10 or more. Upgrading all active modules on a T5 ship is $40. Upgrading a full ship is at least $130 - considerably less than the DLC packs that contain 3 ships!

 

It is INSANELY priced! Nobody is going to want to spend that kind of money!

 

Upgrading to Mk III with GS should be cheap. If it is cheap (say, 270 GS for a T5 module) then people will do it more often. If they do it more often, then they will buy GS more often.

 

As it stands, the monetisation is terrible, and does not encourage spontaneous, or even premeditated purchases. You are actually LOSING sales because your pricing is so terrible!

 

This should have been fixed years ago. Stop gouging your players and maybe they’d actually pay you money now and then!

I feel like no one would complain about the GS prices for mk3 if the voucher costs weren’t rediculously high because of how broken the voucher system is…

Hating him for what? Because he decided to by-pass the grind by using the option of the GS?

Out of curiousity, how much money did you burn doing that?

That isn’t why. I’ll try to explain without flaming but I’ll probably fail. It’s because he makes people feel bad about themselves with an over-excessive use of sarcasm and cynicism when rather he could be guiding people in a more kind manner. Granted his pictures and accusations statements are hilarious sometimes. It’s just my opinion but sometime I wish xKostyan was more cooler than he already is. The mean streak he has is as large as… Something that’s large. He probably won’t change his character but hey. What can you do?

Anyways, xKostyan I hope you have those on a premium ship. Can you tell me how much free synergy you get?

I’m jelly 'cause I spent more than 100k GS on blue T5 modules before they put that cool golden stuff, so all my modules look normal when they should be giving me 3% extra synergy :c

 

Anyways, xKostyan I hope you have those on a premium ship. 

 

You can see it’s a Karud

I dont even own a karudi  :005j:

You can see in the background part of the federation hangar. It must be a federation ECM!

I can’t tell if that’s referring to me or you but one thing is for sure. I am loving this offtopic.

Edit: I was thinking of using the word stupid instead of bad. It seems like you got a gif for everything though.

The only thing you may succeed in with this post, comparing the 10:1 ratio Mk3 : Mk4

is NOT making it 5:1 or 2:1, but instead 10:5 (again 2:1, but with increase of the lower , instead of lowering the higher)

No. Because he doesn’t know how to keep his $wag in his pants.

There is a difference in “Doesn’t know”  and “just impossible for him due to the size of his $wag”

Hey I would also like they lower the prices of cars! I mean, who the xxxx will pay 50.000 € for a Mercedes? I want to pay 12.000 € for that. and 2000 € for a Renault. After all, those prices is what I think should be right for me.

 

Fair enough?

Seems legit. Let’s ask Mercedes to do it.

 

 

But I kinda agree with them. The upgrade cost is so hight. Only players who have thousand of GS to spend will do it.

Well, as long as that upgrade doesn’t give you an advantage (which currently doesn’t) I don’t care. I like this game, I don’t “grind” the game, I just play it, and on the way I collect enough resources to upgrade my ships.

 

If you think the game is a “grind” then you are playing the wrong game.
