>On August 3rd, we will be launching three new crates. All three crates will contain items inspired by the Battle Royale movie, some of which you may have seen in our older artworks. The first and second crates, named the Wanderer Crate and the Survivor Crate, will be free to open. Each of these crates will include one set of the themed clothing, on top of other cosmetic items. The third crate named the Gamescom Invitational Crate will have the most diverse pool of themed clothing.

>can be opened with a key which you can buy for $2.50 each.

I dont see why you people have such an issue with DLC. you would be paying for it all anyway. If a game cost 60 dollars and released two 10 dollar dlcs then if they had added those before the game would have costed 80 dollars. You would pay the full price for everything no matter what and games would take much longer to come out. dlc is actually great

>>
>>385182732
No, the argument for the (poor) example you made is that the DLC SHOULD have been in the base game in the first place for the SAME price to increase the cost:content ratio. Microtransations are a rolling model with no cap on income. Different from block content purchases. It's seen as a "scummy" or "greedy" practice and not something to be done by someone with passion for the game.

HOLD THE FUCKING PHONES

ARE YOU TELLING ME-

NO, YOU COULDN'T BE

DID SOMEONE EXPECT TO MAKE MONEY OFF THIS GAME?

What a fucking revelation, you shitter.

This is the best possible way to go with microtransactions; it's cosmetics only, that don't give you a leg up on anyone.

Look at Dota 2, all they've got is skins, nothing that affects gameplay or power levels.

Are you telling me you think this is as bad as selling, say, a guaranteed good gun when you hit the ground? Because THAT would actually be terrible. This, this is good. Means the game will keep running, and hopefully developing.

How much does Dota2 cost?
>>
>>385183904
not him, but if you're going to go with that argument, then: who is making you pay for items that are purely cosmetic?
>>
>>385183739
Cosmetics kinda give an upper hand in this video game, blending in with surroundings is legit and that's why I like it (that's why you only get ghillie suits in rare drops). It does online stealth right. New cosmetics are bright and paytolose but p2w will surely follow.

except it could affect gameplay if they start doing camo cosmetics, or even a ghillie suit.

>>385183904
Does that actually matter?

You aren't being forced to buy these cosmetics to enjoy the game, you only need to buy the game.

This is extra shit that probably won't be any good.

>early access
not inherently bad
>one map
GTA 5 only has one map (battlegrounds has announced two more maps as well)
>handful of guns
more guns (besides the ak, m16, m4, scar, awm, sks, kar98, m24, ump, uzi, vector, groza, m249, and the shotguns and pistols) wouldnt really make sense considering theres no custom loadouts or anything similar to that. plus youd probably need more ammo types and shit which would be bothersome
>unoriginal
because its a battle royale game? its called a genre lol. plus playing this is an entirely different animal than playing kotk
>microtransactions
are these new to you? i dont like em either but this is what companies have to do to compete with each other now until hopefully the fad dies
>streamer cancer
its possible to play the game without watching streams. but if you get into it you might find yourself enjoying highlight reels

anyway. this anon said it:

i think i paid around 20 dollars for this game? i have about 100 hours right now and i have no plans to stop playing since the devs have been adding such quality updates. and im excited for the first person servers that are finally being added next week.

>the devs priority is adding paid crates?
What? If it was their priority, the crates would have been added day 1. They would be pushing the crates as hard as they could and keeping them permanently if it was their "priority." But instead we're getting a temporary paid crate that doesn't even last a month to help pay for their Gamescom tournament. That's it. It's been confirmed multiple times that they're taking away the paid crates once Gamescom ends. They game has been out for months and they've already released dozens of updates that added guns, clothes, vehicles, etc so obviously these crates aren't their priority. You're just talking out of your ass

>>385188265
>paid high price for game
It's not even a high price. The game is $30, it's half off what you would pay for any other game. It's not like Battlefield where you have to pay $60, then $40 for a season pass, then $20 for a new map or whatever. It's $30 and then an optional cosmetic for $2.50. Even Overwatch has a more expensive base game, more expensive loot crates, more limited edition loot crates, permanent loot crates, etc but no one is complaining about that.

not a good way to start your rebuttal since i listed more than ten guns, and devs will be adding more in free updates. theres also vehicles, a variety of different attachments for the weapons, different kinds of healing items etc. you dont need much more for a game that is strictly a multiplayer death match
>Except for the 90% of games that have abused it
"inherently bad" doesnt mean abusable, it means its bad from the get go. whether or not the devs abuse the system is up to them
>More of a game mode really, what does PUBG offer that the others don't?
ive only played h1z1 and pub, but i can say that the wider variety of weapons and attachments really change the game and the way you move around the map. also, the map is a lot better in this game with way more unique locations (no rows of houses or grid system cities) plus theres no crafting which is nice
>Its a more polished version of kotk, how is it any different?
see above
>Thanks sherlock
that was just rude
>the devs priority is adding paid crates?
the update isnt just adding crates. theyre adding more weapons and bug fixes as well as first person in the next update. new maps are coming as well.

at a certain point i think you need to admit that this game is good and the developers are doing a good job with it. go channel your anger into something productive because theres literally no other reason for you to be in this thread shitting on this game if you werent upsetti spaghetti about something else

LoL doesn't even have a sequel! It's been out for 8 years now and it still tops the charts. Most of these big, new and exciting games never get proper sequels. WoW has sold tens of millions of copies, but it doesn't have a sequel either. Counter Strike sells millions and it only gets sequels after like 6 years. Half Life 2 was revolutionary when it came out and it still doesn't even have sequels.

Bluehole makes more than $1 million per employee from PUBG sales alone, even by conservative estimates. They have more than enough money to keep this early access game running and continue development, especially if sales continue as they are now.

This is the best possible way to go with microtransactions in a paid game, is to not have them at all. Dota 2 gets away with it because it's free to play, the business model depends on microtransaction revenue. PUBG already costs money upfront and it isn't even a full game right now.

>Are you telling me you think this is as bad as selling, say, a guaranteed good gun when you hit the ground? Because THAT would actually be terrible.

This is called a false dichotomy. Ironically its the kind of mentality that proves the slippery slope is real. Because when devs start selling guns and P2W shit in paid games and the
next generation of players are conditioned to accept it, people like you will defend it with "Are you telling me you think this is as bad as X?" and so on.

Don't try to dress it up as something needed to support development. This is pure profit for them and nothing else.

They're using the fucking crate money for the prize pool of a tournament. Playerunknown has confirmed it, steam has confirmed it, the developers have confirmed it, gamescom has confirmed it. The money that they've made has already been paid out as salaries and developmental costs. They're not just going to all take out a huge chunk of their savings account and use that to fund a tournament. If my boss gave me my paycheck and then the next day said "Oh by the way you need to give back 50% of that so I can use it fund a personal matter" I would tell him to get lost. You can't just take back money you've already spent. He has to get money for his personal endeavors some other way.

Protip: That "very clear line in the sand" is drawn at the shoreline, and keeps getting washed away by the tide of game consumers who are more and more conditioned to accept microtransactions. Eventually the line will be drawn past microtransactions that affect gameplay, assuming they aren't already considering how F2P games already make a killing off P2W.

They don't HAVE TO. But why would they fund the tournament with their own money? Why not do what Valve does and let the players fund it? It's cosmetic skins anyway, literally irrelevant no matter how you look at it.

Are PUBG fans the only people other than Biodrones that just enjoy getting fucked in the ass or what?
Microtransactions in early access is literally the sin of sins
I mean the game didn't even have a fucking skybox until like a month ago and it still runs like shit
Just how delusional and/or paid off do you have to be to defend this
Its honestly getting kind of pathetic just how bad the modern consumer is

That's a nice way to dodge the question. You don't get to arbitrarily decide it's not a loaded question when >>385186936 uses it but loaded when >>385191689 asks the exact same question just because you don't like how it's used.

What's wrong with companies trying to make money? Why should you care about anyone else spending money on p2w microtransactions? The false sense of self worth you get from ""supporting"" a game or not matters to no one but yourself.

This is exactly how DLC started. Becauase the margins on microtransactions p2w or not are so slim that it's immensly profitable even if 90% of the playerbase doesn't buy into it.
>>
So I spent about a little under 3 hours playing this and decided I didn't really like it, will they refund me?

>>385192762
A single second past the 120 minute mark and you're basically boned. Gonna have to wait for the game to come out of early access when they (might) reset the play time. You can try playing the "the last update made the game unplayable on my computer" card but PU has been working personally with Valve to shut those refunds down.

How are they relevant in any way when it's just fucking clothing? Even if every hat was 1000 bucks, so what? It's just a cosmetic. Believe it or not, there are very rich people that don't know what to do with their money. How does that affect players who just play the game?

No, CSGO and this crap are the same kind of piece of shit that only appeals to the same casuals.

>Not to mention CS:GO, the deformed, Down syndrome cousin of CSS.
You're either baiting, trolling, or haven't player CS:GO nor CSS. CS:GO is by far the best version of CS, and the only relevant multiplayer shooter on the market. It's exactly the same as CSS and 1.6 but with better weapon and map balance, and recoil mechanics. There's a reason why e-sport scene is player CSGO instead of previous version.

And what about the skins? Player made skins that have absolutely no gameplay impact, while Valve focuses on patching the game. If anything, that's a good thing. People who want to spend money can do so and have cool skins, people who made the skins get paid, people who don't buy skins can get de weapon when they kill the enemy that has it, and the devs work on the game.

Notice how CSGO haters never have any actual arguments against the game and their only "defense" is calling people reddit or underage?

Tell me anon, how can CSS be better when CSGO is the exact same thing but with better graphics, better balance, and recoil mechanics that tremendously raise the skill ceiling?

Think of it this way. This is $2.50 for a RANDOM chance a PIECE of the outfit that you want. There is also a chance of getting a duplicate.

>fun" is never a good justification for anything
wut? People usually try to do things they consider fun, why would anyone do things he doesn't like to do? Explain to me why I shouldn't play a game I'm having fun with?

Yeah, like most games anon

Why would it go up or down in price anon? It costs 30 bucks and that's a fair price. And full priced games=60 bucks. PUBG is not full price.

CSGO lives on because it happens to be the newer, better version of one of the most popular game series out there. This "it's only popular because of skins" meme needs to end.

If CSS or 1.6 was the better game, then e-sport players would be playing CSS and 1.6 while normiefags stay and sell CSGO skins. But guess what, even pros think GO is the better choice. That's like trying to argue that DotA is somehow better than DotA2.

But they don't, because CSGO it's newer.

No, it's the exact same.
TF2 survived because it was good and had community made content, and Overwatch has only lived on because of cosmetics.

There was never any promise that the game would stay non p2w in its official marketing. They could never be sued for false advertising since you buy the game in early access which gives them free reign to add or change anything they want.

youre right, i went too far by saying that they could be sued and herein lies the problem with early access. if pub becomes p2w i would consider myself cheated as it is not currently p2w. i understand fully well that bluehole reserves the right to change that, but im trusting them not to. if i get cheated in the end, fuck bluehole, but so far theyve been fixing bugs and applying good updates to the game. so for now, i do not regret my purchase and i dont think i will wind up regretting it

Yes, it is a focus, otherwise they would have introduced them after the game left early access.
You can't defend that, we are seeing it now, it's a fact.

>>
>>385196871
F2P games rely on MTXs to make money, since they're literally free to play, which is why people put up with cosmetics. Why do you think Dota2 is the go to example when defending MTXs?

B2P games make money through copies sold, and PUBG has already made millions without MTXs despite being unfinished.

"We're not doing monetization during early access, it'll be afterwards."
http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/297434/quotSkin_economy_is_a_good_thingquot_says_Playerunknowns_Battlegrounds_creator.php
"As far as monetization is concerned, know that we eventually intend to give the player options to purchase cosmetic items only. However, until the game is out of Early Access, our development resources will be focused entirely on improving the Battle Royale game mode. Only then will we consider the addition of in-game purchases."
https://www.playbattlegrounds.com/news/22.pu
"What were planning to do, is to add purchasable cosmetic items (like clothes/skins) via crates, this will allow us to create free DLC packs down the road." Microtransactions are coming after Early Access.

I don't think you understand what the concept of stealing is. Whether or not you think the microtransactions change your experience is completely irrelavent. Both cosmetic and P2W are optional, they're both justified because companies want to make money.

>its understood by everyone including bluehole that winning the game is based on skill.
Even with P2W the game would still be based on skill, if you can't beat P2W players you aren't skilled and only unskilled players resort to buying microtransacitons in the first place.

>they can change that if they want. but its still fucked up if they do

And it's not like most other games which you claimed.
I was refering to the part where you said "but it's pay2play", which is indeed like most games out there.
>The fact is the game is not F2P and being sold before its out of alpha.
Why would the game be F2P? And what's wrong with it being sold before leaving alpha? That's the whole point of early access anon, being able to access a game you're interested in earlier.
>PUBG wouldn't be the first early access game to do it, even though they're not going to.
So they have to do give you a discount because others did it?
>Doesn't justify microtransactions.
But it does, since it's just cosmetics that have no impact whatsoever on the gameplay.
>I already explained what I meant by "full priced".
You did, and I told you where you are wrong. PUBG isn't full priced, simply because it's 30 bucks, so half priced.

Because I'm talking about microtransactions, and the only buy to play games that have them aren't in early access.
>Why would the game be F2P?
I never said it would? I bought up F2P beacuse those games need microtransactions to make money, unlike buy to play games including PUBG.
>And what's wrong with it being sold before leaving alpha?
Get your neurons firing and think for a second what's wrong with selling a game and adding microtransactions to it when it's not even finished.
>That's the whole point of early access anon,
The whole point of early access is for companies to make money off games before they're even finished.
>But it does,
Except it doesn't, because the game is not F2P.
>You did, and I told you where you are wrong.
No you just misread what I said and continue to miss the point.
>>
