I have 1 question: WHY ARE PAINT JOBS SO EXPENSIVE IN HIGHER TIERS? Cant they just keep it the same for ALL tiers??? I have 532 gold standards right now (didnt pay for any) and i cant even paint a t3 ship that has 3 colors -_- they better change this. Or im not wasting my prcious gold standards on it.
Totally agreed. I dont know what they were thinking when they were choosing the paint prices. I’d say that less than 3% of ships I see are painted.
In World Of Tanks, it’s 5x cheaper to paint camouflage on your tank, and easily 35-40% of the tanks I see are painted. so Wargaming’s model is more than 2x as profitable. They also let you buy temporary paint for in game credits.
It’s a no-brainer that they need to lower their ship paint prices, and add some realistic colors, there are too many bright plastic colors and only like 3 metallic colors.
Yep i agree if they made the paint jobs 100gs im sure more people would b buying paint jobs and gaijin would be getting a profit. -_- but someimes people r stubborn and i cant do anything about that

I want all my ships black for the slight advantage it gives for concealment when out of sensor range.

On a black map if you don’t move maybe. But why? You just want to sit somewhere and not shoot?
Mayb i have higher intellect than some players or whatever but if they have EM scatterig field i can still see them and i kill them. But when im playing LRF and i use EM scattering field, ships fly right past me while im shooting at them lol
Aesthetics are not their main source of income. They have no real motivation to improve sales on that front. Profit making sensibilities will soon catch up however and I am sure things will not stay the way it is forever.
- I would like the option to paint and use aerographs for 1 day paying using credits. As a test drive before I decide to pay for it permanent.
- Paying for a colour only ONCE per ship allowing me to paint the whole ship using just 1 color for the price of just 1 color.
-
the ship pattern (livery) was NOT MY CHOICE. Why should I pay money to FIX SOMEONE ELSE’S bad taste in design and colour scheme?
-
take Federation ships. Their top end ships use camouflage patterns. CAMOUFLAGE. In SPACE. JUNGLE CAMO in SPACE ?
-
and I have to pay money to fix that. 3x for each of those ships because of the pattern.
- Color packs DLC. Pay ONE TIME, unlock all Colors for all Ships permanent forever. I will pay $59.90 for that DLC

When is someone besides yourself are going to see your custom painting? In battle? Most likely not. You mostlikely see someones paint job if you tell someone to look at or maybe in game recording or when you post pictures in the forum.
Also Interceptors and some fighters you would barely notice any custom painting even in recording because the ship is so small and with all the action around it…
I spend some GS for painting but that was just for myself and regret I wasted GS for paint/logo on ships I don’t fly anymore.
I have now some ships I fly very often but I’m reluctant to spend hundreds of GS for something that only I will notice. I rather use it to buy some premium ships when they are on sale (like now).

So what i do is that i kill people to allow them to enjoy my awesome paintings, if they didn’t appreciate my color scheme, i will give them a chance to take a second look :lol:

:lol: couldn’t agree more
There were suggestions long ago for the game to showcase top 3 (or whatever) pilots after a match on the scoreboard where their ship gets displayed. Supposed to act as incentive for people to pay up for custom colours.
Devs also reached out privately to corporations at one point asking their top wishlist for the game. I think more than a few asked for a replay type feature. It probably got noted down because Devs later made a couple of references to it hinting they *might* consider it although I cannot find references to those any more nor does it appear in the game dev roadmap.
one item from game development plan that is relevant however is:
Ability to configure the appearance of the corporation members’ ships;
In addition to the hangar for corporations, we want players to have the opportunity to show their belonging to the corporation and its individual style through the appearance of the ship!
Wouldn’t take much to expand that and make it more worthwhile to get custom paint.

I don’t exactly care tbh, I’m staring at my own ship all battle long so it rather look good. Besides I do notice other painted ships myself so I’m sure others notice as well. Also:

:bomber: Boom! Look at my ship! Boom! Double Look! Megalook! Ultralook! Mo-mo-mo-monsterlook-look-look… LOOKILIATION! :crazy:
srsly, i want dlc ships paintable.
expensive? yes. probably they would sell more if cheaper, on the other hand, at least it’s permanent.
Paint schemes can be sneaky at times. For example, Anacondas are easy prey, but Valors tend to be more difficult, not to mention they’re usually piloted by more skilled players. If the ship is painted like an ambulance it takes a very sharp eye to spot the difference in the two. That could cause a player to over-commit to a fight he can’t win.

I guess not everyone has Ship name in the HUD displayed under one condition or another.

Usually it’s great to have info, but when we had that tourney, I just didn’t see jackshit with all those cluttered information pieces.
