    Bundle Craze Of Recent Days

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I can only judge from what I learned about trying to sell my 3D designes on the internet. And for me, lowering prices worked like a blast. My income was multiplied by 10. I think the benefit which [DE] is having here, is that they have a prefiltered community and they can directly design towards that marketing target group.

     

    I know the ordeal of having to design stuff that fits different body shapes. I also tried designing clothes for Second Life, but quickly dropped that for it being outright insane. It's like making a pair of pants that fits any human on the planet. No matter age or gender. I do not intend to disrespect the effort the designers put into this, dear god, I would be the last one to do that. I just see this as the middle ground where both, [DE] and community could be satisfied to an equal extend.

    Bundle Craze Of Recent Days

    Since I managed to struggle through the Nitain dilemma and praising RNGsus for getting Ivara in only a week's worth of farming Spy missions, my main concern is the way [DE] took on the Warframe accessories part. When was the last time we got a set of armor of which every part could be bought separately and, even more important, be previewed in the armory? I am not talking about the Baro reskins. I mean fully fleshed armor parts with new mesh and design. I can not remember a single one this year. The only item that comes to my mind right now, is Ivara's cloak (Syandana), but that's no set. Granted, we got tons of Syandanas, but those are all available separately.

     

    On the other hand we got new prime accessories, deluxe skins and bundled items. I see no problem for a Deluxe skin and the bundle going separately, but why not the other items originally included in those bundles? Why can't we buy Pakal Shoulders and Hulta Leg Plates individually? They still would cost us Platinum, and I would not blame [DE] for even charging an adequate high sum, but paying almost 1000p for only two items I want from those bundles makes no sense. Not for me, and not for [DE].

     

    It works out badly on both ends. The Community getting frustrated about either feeling hindered to get what they want or feeling tricked into buying things they did not, and DE losing a lot of potential sales due to this. What happened to the old custom of making items available separately, but more expensive as if you'd buy all items in a bundle, and selling according bundles discounted? DE did that in the past and it worked perfectly fine. This also leads to the technical limitation of not being able to preview what a certain piece of armor would look like on your frame, in your particular color set. This may also discurage possible buyers.

     

    So far I really enjoyed being able to costumize my Warframes the way I wanted from the day I got my first color pallets. Armors came, Syandanas came, everything led into a quite satisfying situation. I see no need for the sudden change in marketing such items. From my point of view, it will cause more commotion and negative publicity the way [DE] currently seems to be trying to attempt, than sticking to the old concept.

    ____ _ _ _  _

     

    TL:DR

     

    Why not sell the new, bundled accessory items seperately for higher prices, like [DE] used to? Why instead put hopes in few, high priced sales instead of many average priced ones, which may also lead to community frustration?

    Adventus Arrow Skins Disappointment

    The problem seems to be the arrow knocked to the bow. the ones still in quiver appear ABOUT right, still a bit large for my understandings. The length is okay, just the tip and fletched end are a bit oversized. The knocked arrow is insanely huge. Like a fellow Master said: "Try dodge this!"

    Is It A Common Issue To Consistently Lose Connection Mid Load Screen?

    Every time I play with my guildmate, it turns into roulette. If he's the host, everything runs fine until 20 minutes into the game. Then we get the infamous 'Host Migration' bollocks. If I host, he mostly can't even join, having said problem. He get's to loading screen, game loads up to 2/3 and then freezes, sending him back to main menu. We did the whole port forwarding crap, tried turning the game Port Mapping options on and off, nothing works.

    This is basic functionality, so when can we expect the game to be 'stable'?
