How much would you pay for this game?

[Sidriel]

I think we can all be glad that Colonial Marines is a free server, but what if we had to pay for it like most other games? How much of your hard-earned money do you feel like the game is worth?

We're going to take the game as it is right now, keep the same community, same regulars, same promise for future updates, same staff, etc.

For me, the game has some shortcomings like long game sessions, nothing to do after you die, and hugger combat, but its unique roleplay scenarios, replayability value, and overall Community make it something special to me.

I'd probably give it a one time purchase of $80 or a monthly subscription for $15.

edit: I just thought I'd clear up that I'm not advocating for Colonial Marines to be a pay-to-play server, as greed is known it to take the fun out of the game. I just thought this would be a fun little thought experiment.

[Karmac]

monthly 15 bucks, I could do that

[TehSpoderman]

possibly 60-70 bucks or 10 dollar monthly fees

[YungCuz]

Heck 15$ per month they wouldn't even need to do donations (probably)

[Kavrick]

cant say i'd pay a subscription for it, maybe a one time payment

[Garrison]

For me, maybe a one time payment of $30-40 dollars, or a monthly payment of $2

[David Attenbruv]

I would pay approx' 12 Ugandan Shillings.

dont let apop hear you say that

[TopHatPenguin]

Already paid.

[TheMusician321]

I'd pay the same amount for a AAA game that i'd spent 1/10th the time that I do on the server.

[Bigchilly]

I'd dump like 15-20 bucks, about the price of a average indie game these days.

[spheretech]

You pay with your soul while playing

[Jonesome]

Approximately zero if it meant still constantly having to lawyer up against badmins.

[Sidriel]

Already paid.

Speaking of which, when the hell will donations open up?

[TopHatPenguin]

That's down to Apop, so I have no idea.

[notasyndie]

Lets hope apop doesn't pull a lifeweb but I'd probably pay like 30 bucks

[apophis775]

So soon it's doesn't even have a(TM) on it anymore.

Like, we're working out the final details over a few discussions.



Anyway, I'd NEVER make This a pay-to-play or pay-to-win game.

I've been very clear always in the past about not wanting it to seem like we are money-grubbing or money-hungry.
However, people are slowly eroding away at me and we will be re-opening donations in "phases". More of that later though...

[Renomaki]

If I could pay for this game, I think it would be within 15-20 bucks.

I don't like the idea of subscriptions, because that shit drills into your wallet hard in the long run. If I wanna support a game with more money, I'd just buy cosmetics when I have the cash for it.

Hell, when i used to play TF2, I probably gave them about $100 in my time playing that game. That is probably the most I ever put into a F2P game.

top bloke

[Nick123q23]

Solid one-time $20.

[FelixG]

Yeah 20 bucks. BUT the one really cool feature of this game is that its free. There will be drop in pop for sure.
So 20 Bucks in cosmetics Hell yeah!

[Biolock]

It's technically multiple games, I'd say the alpha was worth like 20 and then the omega was myabe 30ish.

[TheMaskedMan2]

At this point i'd say it's worth $30 but i'd honestly support the game with more than that. I would get the limited collectors edition.

[Ikmalmn]

Since I live in a different country with a pretty weak currency exchange, 7$ tops.
