Kit Trials

Hi,

I think that there should be some way for trialing a kit, just to be sure that you want to buy it. Perhaps you can trial a kit for a day or so, or maybe you get a trial period for a kit as a reward. Perhaps you could even buy a trial with any credits that you get from the game (if and when rewards are implemented). It would be nice to be able to get the feel of a kit before committing and buying it, especially since the old MCPVP systems of kit swapping is gone.

What do you guys think?

(This may have already been posted, but I am unsure. Apologies in advance if this is the case.)

 

A very good addition

How long do you thin the trial period should span for? I was thinking around three days or so.

 

I reckon that this would encourage more people to vote and in turn, encourage more players to join the servers. The reward system idea is a very good one, as then it is something to strive for - more active than passive. It would need to be carefully planned but I reckon it has potential

 

That is a really good idea! That way people still get to 'back out' if they don't like the kit, but can still get the kit for the same price if they want. Couple this with the rewards idea, and i think we have a very good addition

 

Also, if it is a weeklong version, then you get to buy it for $2 as you have already paid $0.50. If you get another weeklong trial, the price is still $2 at the end of the week, so it is only financially even if you trial for one week, otherwise you are paying $0.50 extra each week.

 

Exactly

Also, if they decide they don't like it, they only pay 20% of the actual price rather than having an obsolete kit. It also provide more revenue for brawl as they have a guaranteed $0.50 with a possible extra $2 per each player that tries out a kit. I also think that it makes it a bit more player-friendly.

 

I don't really see any potential benefit in adding a cool down to this, so we are in total agreement, but perhaps you could get different time periods? (I am uncertain how this could tie in.)

However I think that keeping it to a purely one week loan basis is best.

 

Agreed, but in terms of getting it as a reward? Perhaps for a certain number of kills or for a win (or more), you should get a kit (maybe a random one?) on loan for 1-3 days? I think that this would add a new aspect to winning a game as you have a chance of getting a good kit on loan. (Examples of this can be seen in FIFA (and other sport games) where you open packs and the like, usually not getting much, but people like the random chance of getting something really cool, so i think that this would draw in more players as a result)

 

I wouldn't think you would get a kit for voting, perhaps some sort of point system that you can cash in for various rewards, such as 'digger on loan' or '3 games with respawn in the first five minutes'.
