In this case they should have prepared other options or simply a textbox where you can give your own feedback. I know it is harder to process it like that but they already did that with another question. The only way to voice how we feel about it is to tell them on the forum, hence why I created this thread.

thats fair,

I have been behind the content of all of their surveys and supported the way they are managing them... until now.

 

I don't mind them asking about piloting other things... but keeping new mechs behind a pay wall - "nope".  That'll be the end of my time with Hawken.  The most insulting part is that the question doesn't even give an option for "0 weeks".  Might as well say, "This is going to happen, we're only curious how long you think you should have to wait to be able to play it."  It's a rude and slighted way to ask a survey question.

 

Hey, I "get it" - there are hundreds of players right now who have massive reserves of HC and there is no chance any of them are going to pay real money for a mech they could buy several times over with free, in-game credits.  I "get it" that Reloaded needs to start proving the game can generate revenue.  But, you know what, I don't do that.  It's not honorable to invite everyone to a party (free-to-play), then, when they get there, tell them "There's a cover charge if you want to get into the 'real' party - otherwise you can stand out here in the losers lobby and wait until the party is almost over before we let you in."  It's a douchy move.

 

If it comes down to this kind of thing, please just make Hawken a retail game that I can pay for up front.  I'd have gladly paid $50 for Hawken at any point in it's time.  But if you put other things in it, other than pure cosmetics, that ask me to pay money to be able to enjoy them - I'm done.

 

This is why I will not play games, even retail games, that expect players to pay more cash for new maps or game modes.  Not only is it dishonorable, it does nothing more than divide the community even further by creating a class system - the haves vs. the have-nots.


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke
