AL monthly membership

[karrdath]

Opinions on what if sts made so that yiu could be a member for a monthly fee? We members get special events and perks and and set amount of plat a month? Some perks would be like crates only 10 plat to open. And exlirs a bit cheaper. I dont know just want to hear others thoughts. I think it would be pretty cool.!

[Maazilik]

That is a good idea I agree with u STS could do this maybe the fee could be 15 dollars a month ur thoughts

[Maalice]

If this went to subscription I don't think u should have to buy plat for anything

[karrdath]

Yea I feel like 15 a month would be a perfect price . I think it wouldd be a great idea for sts to do and make us players happy

[karrdath]

Itnwould be for those who want the perks not eveyone has to and people still would probally purchase plat even when member. Bc the monthly plat recived wouldnt be a substantial amount

The reason platinum exists in the first place is so STG can make a profit, pay it's staff, and continue developing the game. If they changed AL to be a subscription based mobile game (which they won't), then platinum would have to go away entirely. If they implemented an optional subscription for players (which most games call a VIP subscription), this idea would bring about a "pay-to-win" mechanism within the game and create nothing but upheaval.

I vote no.

[karrdath]

* not a substantial amount . My bad

[karrdath]

How I see it is the big time plat buyers still will purchase larage amiunt of plat and be a member and I think would make sts more money bc people mainly get plat for crate opening if only 10 to open they buy more

HE*L to the NO

i wouldnt play if they added this,

I don't like this idea. $15/month for a mobile game sounds a bit ridiculous. This fee will deter a lot of the player base. At least with platinum, you can control how many you want to buy at any time. There are better MMORPG games out there that charge the same subscription fee with better graphics, content and the like.

I haven't bought platinum in awhile, as I've been trying to play like a free player. (Trust me, not buying platinum this weekend was exceedingly difficult!)

Secondly, while trying this "free player" perspective, I've come to realize how much more fun the game can be! Interestingly enough, when you don't have platinum...you learn to become more cautious as you can't afford to waste platinum on revives.

So, having a subscription service would kill off the wonderful free player community that we have (excluding the ones that argue platinum is the only way towards making cash).

[SkullCrusher]

NO.

[cindersx]

NO! I would have to say no to this. One reason I play this game is because it's FREE. If they were to put in this $15 a month to have more things you can do in the game, they would lose players including me. It took me forever to find a game that I like that doesn't have something stupid like having to be a paid member to do everything in the game and if this game turns into one of those, well bleh. Would never play this game again.

So the point is no, the game is fine how it is and it shouldn't have this added.

[Meljann]

I disagree keep the game the way it is!!

[Frohnatur]

I vote No too. Same as Apollo I find it much fun to find ways to get around plat buying, and I think I'm pretty successful. I have 3/5 mythic and I was two seasons on the Leaderboards.

I spent one time for getting auction slots (because I felt a lil' bad for playing without spending some amount AT ALL). So I regarded it as my "contribution" even if it wasnt much.

A volountary subscription fee would create a two class society that eventually would kill the game.

[Veluthe]

NO No no.

The game is FREE to play.

Sts makes more money with plat than they would with subscription im sure so why change Not to mention theyd lose players cus not all will pay to play.

This is a mobile game not WoW therefore its not broad enough graphical wise and other things to have subscription.

[Khylan]

STS doesn't release numbers but I doubt more than 15% of the player base buys plat. That 15% (or whaever it is) has to generate enough money to support the staff, servers, developers, etc....The entire game is designed around buying plat, it can't change to a subscription based game without being a different game.

Free games that are fun to play are hard to find, especially an MMO. AL can be certainly be played without spending a dime if you are good at making friends and have the time to put into it. If that is changed to monthly fee, the number of new players coming into the game will drop off dramatically, plus a huge exodus of existing players. STS needs that flow of new players constantly coming in in order to have new people buying plat.

Anyway that's my theory

[Kazillo]

I vote no subscription fee.

[xcainnblecterx]

No.

I play this game $0 and I plan to continue to. I was flabbergasted when the locked system was put in place and to this day am sore that arcane eggs ate only locked drop (put at least one of them in an elite chest. Perhaps uncap rooks area and add new chests? Imo). I ddoubt I would continue playing much longer if player were getting such absurd advantages as only 10plat per locked. I do free trials which still benefit STG, and I don't apreciate the constent juxtaposition that spending my own money is better. I may use/gain less plat but I do not deserve to be forced to pay money, or give up on being pro. Not to mention the original app page clearly stated plat would be only necessarry for some pets, gear bundles, and elixirs. I understand they changed this for profit's sake, but I already loath the change of heart. Keep the game the way it is or you will lose players (fyi I had well over 10 friends quit AL when locked were introduced, though they didn't buy plat their trials still benefitted STG and should be valued as such. EVERY player is equal).
