Ok... so you want fair price for 3 months premium and couple of guns... ok - buy this for 6,99€ https://www.mmoga.com/Game-Keys/The-Hun ... -Pack.htmlInvisibleFlame9 wrote:First I have a '12GA' shotgun (2 of them). 2 different missions require the other shotguns. Owning the other shotguns is pretty pointless for me at this stage plus I don't see a 5$ gun. I see a 20$...or 30$ ....bundle that contains those weapons. Some of them even go up to 75$. All containing very important items and upgrades in the game. Buying individual weapons would not be economical. Nor am I willing to make impulsive purchases on items just because different days of Christmas event require some other weapon I don't have and this that and the other. I don't see even standing a chance of really participating in this event. Maybe someone in my position could get at best a 'cookie' ....but the way things are looking so far...I doubt it!Eraser_SK wrote:480 em$ for 10ga shotgun is not much...

I would say this also highly depedns on "how" you do the things.
I will refer to WoW, but I don't mean by anyway that TheHunter should apply same model - this is just an example. So - generaly, when I buy a WoW, I actualy "feel" (and this is important part from my standpoint), that I own the game. Because I have accesss to all the content. Additionaly I pay for time played online - let's say, usage of servers. Same way as I own a cell phone (I own the product) but I still have to pay bills for using it. In reality (I did not do the math, so don't realy know), you may spend much more money on WoW in long term, than on theHunter. But you don't "feel" they are trying to rob you on every step (intentional exageration). I was writing on this a lot in other threads, so I don't realy want to start it over, but I would probably "feel" different, that we would have to buy game ones, reciving all the content coming with it (additional aviable through DLC's eventualy), and then pay for a membership (much more, than it cost now - but just ones for a year, 6 months and so on). It simply "feels" much different, than current model - much better for me.
From other hand, I think current system is so punishing (or it "feels" this way) mostly for new players. Because if You've played the game for several years, and during this time You've already collected most of the equipment - not only to met your own expectations, but also for all possible missions and/or competitions, then (after that) game can be felt quite cheap indeed. Current prices for membership are rather low. And probably most players can also afford for occasional new gun relised, etc. But when you are new, those "bombardment" by "you need this, to do this comp./mission" is at least annoying.

And I'm preety happy with the game so far. I simply don't like this "bussiness model". I also do not like the prices - for a money I need to pay for a stuff that would be probably included from the begining in a standalone, off-line production, I would probably buy several copies of such a standalone production. Ok, for on-line game, with is in constant developement costs should be higher, but still, prices feel way to high for me. But aside of this, this is great game and I love it. It already kept me interested for much longer, than some other productions.
And while there is still some time left, I wish everyone happy Christmas time.
