TENNY FIVE DOLLARS FOR UPGRADE? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!

Postby Upgrayedd on Mon Jul 16, 2012 4:29 pm

So, why is upgrade so expensive. I maybe buy it for... 5 US dollars... but 25, no way, not when it is only a one year guarentee to work. To put it in perspective - for 25 dollars I could but 25 bullets for gun and hunt enough animals to feed on for a year. Is this not a better option? Is it not better to feed and not play game then play game and not feed? You must rethink pricing strategy if you wish to entice big shots like me into buying your upgrades.

I dont think a "big shot" would be whining about $25.

Also, if your choice truly is between eating and playing, then I think you have other priorities you need to take care of than browsing the internet for online games.

CC is dying because it is not catering to big shots like Upgrayedd.

so you think it's okay to charge 25 dollars every year for a game that only costs a small amount of bandwidth to run (and is infringing on copyrights als0? if i played this game for 25 years, that would be... 700 or so dollars. outrageous.

For what it's worth - based on hours of gameplay per dollar, online games are generally superior to console games.
You can weigh up how much you will enjoy each hour or how many bullets you can buy etc.

well its not so expensive,consider that you can play unlimited number of games,if you become premium. Of course if you look other countries standards,for some countries 25$ are very big fortune, and for some countries 25$ are nothing .
For me its big,because im unemployment( actually in mine country almost 25% people dont have job), so i create maps to get premium.

I never looked @ the per day amount, I looked @ the how much per game. My first year i played nearly 2500 games....basically $0.01 per game!

How much do you pay for your computer? I can guarantee it was a lot more than $25, probably a couple hundred. You mean to tell me you spent several YEARS of not eating so that you could moan about how expensive CC is?

I disagree. $700 dollars would be a quite cheap investment for 25 years worth of entertainment.
