In continuation of the previous post, we would like to further elaborate on the game cost.
Here at Red Duck, we pride ourselves in having exceptional experience with over 10 years of experience developing & servicing various Free to Play models and therefore fully understand the positive aspects of F2P as well as its limitations in terms of game’s progressive growth. Therefore, one of several significant decisions we’ve made in relation to launching Metro Conflict: The Origin was the transition from ‘Free to Play’ to ‘Pay to Play’. The idea is for our users to purchase our full game which includes all content to be accessible without having to pay for additional elements to fully experience the gameplay. This change also allows our game to be and remain a balanced online multiplayer FPS where we can strictly avert away from potential P2W scenarios.
Metro Conflict: The Origin’s package nature will include the following;
- Starting with our Early Access launch, Metro Conflict: The Origin is expected to be available for $19.99 through Steam.
- Full range of all 12 characters will be made available.
- All weapons are permanent once purchased and will be made available through the in-game store via credits obtained through gameplay. (collectable through gameplay; non-cash oriented)
- There are various character and weapon skins available to be obtained either through; gameplay and/or events. These skins offer cosmetic effects but do not alter weapon mechanics.
Our 1st CBT is scheduled to start from October 27th. We recommended everyone to personally experience these changes during our Beta Testing. We’ll be anticipating valuable feedback during and after our 1st CBT.
Metro Conflict: The Origin will mature through your ideas and feedback!
