Idea Team shop

Like the idea however I think the pricing of the gold should be made higher.

 

I would say yes, however there are players that don't have as much gold. Also what about the players who make these teams that disband after a short amount of time? I like the idea but, at the start of a map who can really afford this?

 

hmmm I guess. I do think there could be the problem of giving regulars an even bigger advantage because if people play more they are more likely to have more hold meaning they can have more poeple in their team etc. This means there is a higher chance of being 10v1ed and the skill gap increases between newer players and experienced players leading to a lack of new players and server growth.

 

Going to beat @Andrwe to this and say that this might be a little too hard for new players to understand and use - mainly just for the standard team commands and functions.

I would be all for this if gold was even easier to get. Ie small amounts on kills, mob drops, quests etc.

Having said this though I do agree that gold does need a purpose late game but I think it would be better to go for cool upgrades and features more than just adding a cost to existing features.

 

Perhaps, but it might take them a little longer to get established and could be rather overwhelming at the very start. I would argue that the majority of players who have stayed long term on raid have been in a team from the very start (whether it be with a friend or other noobs). This would complicate the system a little bit and might affect our retention imo. Also adding a cost to something that is already free really isn't a "feel good" decision to do - it doesn't really excite that much and doesn't give much incentive when players have already had these features for free.

 

I've got to say I'm not such a big fan of this idea. That's just me but I just think that the team system is fine the way it is, although team caps should be increased or removed. Perhaps this is were @Ry23an 's team gold idea could come into play. You reach your normal team cap of 10 for free, but then you could start to have to pay a little more each time you invite more players. I just don't like the idea of having to pay for a team description and motd.

 

Not a fan of this either, all it would do is just make chat grayscale and give the cool stuff we got before to the players with expendable income. Plus, Team caps expanding with gold is an idea thats heard before and i just don't think its a good idea, the power curve would be too strong and the biggest couple teams would become even bigger and the smaller teams would struggle more from this.

 

Haha my posts in the raid forums were pretty much boiling down to the same point for sure.

Cosmetics feels like the easiest thing to do late game, and maybe team cosmetics is an option, but I am definitely against warps, team caps, and other advantages, -1

 

well I don't think the team color should be that much. I can get it from people for free. and I don't think it is easy to get gold for me it isn't I like spending it for my team I know there are the same people out there to.
