Ameretat Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 It's funny, remember back when missions gave 1k a pop? Haha. Good times. But alas now, I'm sure most of you have more credits than you could possibly do anything with, so I'd like to open the board to ideas (Probably already been done, but after a quick search, didn't find anything fresh so here we go) The first idea would be some sort of 'slot machine', say 5-10k credits a 'spin' with different rewards ranging from potatos to marshmellows, mats, warframe parts (As in pre-built say, systems) or whatever for the high-end small % rewards, and rather bad rewards such as health/ammo packs for the 'better luck next time' Of course, it'd need SOME balancing, but think of it as a credit sucking login system. There ARE other, better ideas out there I'm sure. Much better, as mine is frankly terrible, but hey hey hey, you can't set the bar too high to start off with, can you? ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetalGerbil Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 take all your credits. put them in a pile. light them on fire. same system, more efficient, less time consuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidstalker Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) How about using credits to re-roll the login reward? re-roll = 10k + 5k for every subsequent roll you do. Edited May 28, 2013 by Voidstalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameretat Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 I wish I could put them all in the pile you speak of, it'd be a worthier sacrifice to the Lord Red Text, Master of the Frames than all these reaper handles I'm offering to him :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AscendantWyvern Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Yes to the slot machine! Allowing you to put in...probably 30k for an equivalent of a daily reward. Not only does it give credits somewhere to go, but it also gives players something to do other than grind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Pax Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 I'd prefer a more legitimized spending system. Right now we use credits to...craft. It's basically a crafting material. Some might say "but you can buy some weapons with credits" that just means it only requires credits as it's material. I'd like to be able to trade credits to, say, smugglers for crafting materials, or use them to add go faster stripes and phat grills to my warframe. Maybe spinning rims.

Ameretat Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) Lottery/raffle tickets, multiple purchases possible for the really rich (Or the extreme gamblers) Prizes can include the same things as the login rewards.

DeadlyNerd Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) I've already suggested a credits sink, fusion core BPs. Making useful fusion cores from useless mods by paying credits. Edited May 28, 2013 by DeadlyNerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennoSkoom Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) How about using credits to re-roll the login reward? re-roll = 10k + 5k for every subsequent roll you do. for me that'd be a potato a day every day- that becomes unbalanced very quickly. the cause needs to be addressed first (70-90k credits from a single tier 3 mission in the void is insane- and one of the reasons credits are quickly becoming devalued) and then a completely optional (like account resets were optional) credit sink added. many people have suggested the ability to buy potato bp's and fusion core bp's and even resources for high credit amounts, these might also be a good sink, but won't alleviate the root cause of this issue. take all your credits. put them in a pile. light them on fire. same system, more efficient, less time consuming. omg ember's now useful outside of infested defenses! *shot* Edited May 28, 2013 by AnalogAnomaly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whackhat Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Buying materials would probably be one way to do it. Or buying a material box that contains a random amount of a random material. more randomness to rant about! But seeing the cost of Dojos, the devs already took into consideration our "overflowing" credits.... >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
