Gold to Platinum....Ideas

[Caucakriuka]

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to trade in gold to get platinum to use elixirs? :unconscious:There are some sweet elixirs that would help you level. This would increase gameplay overall as people who can't buy platinum would be level/farming to get up enough gold to transfer into platinum. Maybe like $10k gold gets you 1 plat. That's just an example. You guys got any ideas. PL or SL. Appreciate the feedback! Thanks

I think the current system shouldn't be changed. I think players should feel lucky because they can already get free plat.

Yes, you can get plat free. But it takes time. The goal is not to change the process. Your giving all users an opportunity to increase their level of game play.

I'd say 40 platinum elixir: 400 000gold

Or 2 platinum 20 000 gold

Sounds fair to me

Plat pays for the entire team and technology used behind STS games. Plat is real money while gold are just pixels. So definitely not a bad idea, from a players' perspective, but turning STS into a non-profit organization IMO :)

lol, I didn't think about it that way but I still think its a good idea. I'm not into the business of people losing their job and wouldn't want a hoard of angry gamers.

What would be the point of buying plat if you could just do runs to get it. I don't think there are people who really can't get plat that play the game. If your to young for a job baby sit, rake leaves, shovel drive ways. Thats what i did when i was young and wanted money.

The 'battle' for gold for better elix has been fought as a matter of speaking. All elix used to be purchasable for gold in the past. Devs changed that, there was a huge debate so devs fed us a bone by giving us 1.5 elix back for gold. I don't think that reopening that discussion again will suddenly change their minds this time around.

I have no problem getting it as I have a job but there are players that I don't have jobs like me so it will be easier for them to be able to get plat.

[Caucakriuka]

It's very important to get buy in so good job guys thanks!

That's exactly the reason devs made the main spine of the game free. You can achieve everything without plat. So nobody HAS to buy anything.


Edit: and they can even earn free plat too btw

I've been playing only 2 1/2 months, so i probably missed that . :positive:
