Anyone feels like the Items are a bit EXPENSIVE and TRICKY?

Hello,
Just like the title says, If you don't agree it's just my opinion so please calm, and If you agree say something about it so we can change it together!

I feel like most of the items are a bit tricky and expensive such as the "Premium 30" Costs: 952C
so obviously, you can't buy it with 10$ you will have to pay another 5$ to get it.

And tbh, not many people are playing WarRock atm, so I feel like papaya should decrease the prices at least until WarRock Global becomes famous again.
I've also noticed items cost more than 450 with just a little bit, for example, 490,476, and so on...
you will have to pay another 5$ to get that item If you don't have any Warcash which is sucks.


In WarRock PH, yea I'm talking about it again :) we can learn a lot from.
For Example, Famas only costs 20 there, you can get 20cash from Offgamers for just 0.37$ (Offgamers is a website where you can buy gift cards from) that means Famas is not even close to a half dollar and the game itself so frkin famous +150 rooms daytime.

Finally,
Papaya has made a great progress recently, they added room balancing for new players that means they care that's why I'm typing this topic, they also added couple new Items and they promised us with good improvement with time, don't hate on them guys I know they haven't fixed the big problems yet, but just be hopeful man and type your feedback! make a difference :) this is a community where we all unite together, so what you're waiting for?

    Room balancing was implemented? I may have to log into the game again.

    But it is true that in F2P games or really any game with their own currency system, the custom currencies are exchangable only in set intervals and the prices for using those custom currencies differ from the exchange rate. For that very idea of being able to trick you into having to spend more or having leftover money.

    If items A, B, and C cost 440 custom cash, and it costs $5 for 400 custom cash, then yes you need to pay $10 for getting A, B, or C. After paying $10 you have 800 custom cash. After buying item A, you now have 360 custom cash. That's not enough for anything. So now you spend $5 again, going up to 760 custom cash, just to spend another 440 custom cash on item B, and still have 320 left over.

    The next step in this psychological manipulation is that you have that 320 custom cash left over. You know from the $5/400 custom cash that the custom cash would be $4. But there's no way to get the exchange of custom cash to real $. So you feel like you are wasting $4 by not spending it -- you didn't exchange that $4 for any item or game power up.

    Would it be more fair to gamers to at least set the $->C and the C-cost intervals to be similar? Yes. Even if it was something like $5 for 400 C, and you can get Item A for 200 C and Item B for 200 C, people won't feel that ripped off.

    But it is likely less money for the publisher. Publishers are careful about setting up what will bring them the most money.

    I find it interesting that Papaya has various Premium packages for various days available, but they also have packages like the epic K1 White 8th slot, which includes gold premium and tons of other goodies. This seems like a 40$ item, that they have available for about 25$. 

    Some other things just don't make sense however. Why would anyone ever buy something like Premium PKG I 30 when for nearly the same price you can pick up the epic m4a1 8th pkg or epic mpx 8th pkg and get more goodies? 

    I am very confused with how they run their shop, but I guess diversity is important? The illusion of more choices makes us weigh options more, making us buy more?

    I personally would like to see the triumphant return of bronze and silver premium, as well as the return of "retails" as those two items sold really well during the old days. Papaya also really needs to consider what is a F2P weapon and what is a cash weapon. I am sorry, I am -never- going to pay real money for guns like the Galil and the SIG 550, when there are F2P weapons that are simply better.

    I just have a question, WarRock PH belongs to Papaya or an other company ?
  • linkinxerolinkinxero Posts: 174Member Trainee
    Papaya does not own WarRock Philippines.

    Every publisher has the rights to make the in-game currency what they want. If you compare it to another version that wouldnt be accurate. You would need to compare it to a previous WR Global publisher ( k2Network, G1, or Nexon)

    @KoRupt Alright buddy you're missing the point here, I did not say they don't have the right, of course, they have 100% right to change whatever the fuck they need too, what I said is they need to make things logic and not tricky, In the previous publisher we only needed 10EUR to buy premium, Now It's 15USD so you can get that 52WRC difference, Also WarRock Global isn't that Global actually, we don't have many players playing the game anymore and I don't think that making things expensive would help the game.

    @WizardLogic I totally agree.

    I do not feel that prices are tricky. If you look back at Nexon times, almost every single price was much higher than now. You only have to take a look at Nickname change item, which used to cost 8900NXCash or so, and now it's only around 600WRCash (6000NXCash).

    I Agree items are far more expensive! 
    Also is it worth buying anything in wr now!
    Too many cheaters still in WR
    Hi level cheaters! 
    Papaya needs to do what others were scared to! 
    Ban them for good for any cheating and bugging!
