    Re: Credits = $$ value in FFR store

    The reason WHY synthlight opened the shop is to help pay server costs... you take that away and FFR goes *motions handsign for pooping used in "meet the fockers"*

      The real life FFR shop is for the rich.

      Actually it's not all expensive, it's just that I have to save my money for something else.

      And I agree with you chunky_cheese.

      Without the shop, FFR will slowly go into bankrupt.

      Nicely done.

        Ads and lots of 'em. 2000 seems a bit too light.

          For subscription:

          15k credits = 1 month
          85k credits = 6 months (you save 5k credits!)
          165k credits = 1 year (you save on one month!)

            This idea doesn't really work out that well. It would be like saying, for every 1Gbyte of data transferred, I charge each of you $5. That seems like a worthy amount. The more you play the more I charge. If I said this, you would instantly call me insane. Now imagine if we were to do just that and we were to pick one of you to handle the cost for everyone. Lets say for each 5Gbyte transferred, we charge mountain_dew17 $5.

            It would be the equivalent of charging a site for you to use it. I just don't think that would work unless we win the lottery.

            What would work? I am not sure, it would take some thought. Perhaps credits = $$ for subscribers on some level. There are other options but they would really need to be well thought out. I am up for suggestions but we already pay incredible amounts to bring you guys a free game and we do it without the backing of a gazillion dollar studio. If I could afford to give everyone a T-shirt, I would in a second. You know me.

            Nothing helps FFR more than new traffic, new inbound links and subscribers. This is why we offered the "Come Play with Us" links to earn free T-shirts.

            Cheers,

              Thing is, synth is trying his best, but the idea just won't work. Server loads cost loads. SO PAY UP! *mails paycheck to synth*

                  I don't think it's such a great idea.

                    subscriptions wouldn't be a bad idea but i am just putting this out there.BTW, you'll be seeing a a one year subscription from me hopefully this week.

                      ive already started something like this before, please check before making double threads, but people wernt so up for the T-shirt idea yet subscriptions could work

                      i also put up a suggestion for paying for profile skins trough credits, that would work also

                        This would give hackers a new incentive to hack credits again :/

                            May be a good idea, It would give players the initiative to play the game more often to increase their number of credits, but in the long run, it seems like it would just be another cost for Synthlight.

                              It's just pretty hard to give enough credibility to FFR credits

                                While we're talking about credits here, how many credits to you have to earn before you unlock Pants?
