View Profile Using e-coins to rent chaos for 1 week would be great in my opinion.
Sounds like a good idea to me
Easy work around there is you take the current price of $4 and make just Ele or just Chaos $2.50 so $4 is still better for money. You have to consider people that would then buy half membership would increase sales as well.
Elementals sucks right now. People will want to play Chaos once they get out of low elo and realise Elemental cannot win against Chaos or against a turtle. I imagine many older chaos players like Khan would be quite willing to pay $2.50 to pick up Chaos occasionally and perhaps players like Pumu more willing to pick up just Ele for $2.50.
Yeah and everybody would only ever pay for one empire at a time.
This game is already WAY cheaper then club penguin and a ton more fun as well.
In your opinion "Elementals sucks right now." When really to a ton of other players, it's the best empire ever. This game runs a sort of paper scissors rock which gives you the illusion that one empire is OP when yet it can still be countered by SOMETHING.

View Profile I hate to ask but what elo are you? The game is not rock paper scissors.
Also some people with membership play random - which would need all empires unlocked - and if you were to pay for only one empire at a time you'd have to spend an entire month locked into each empire. I don't think many people would be too keen on that if they like playing both.

View Profile No, I disagree. Because a lot of people will end up only buying elemental and then SE will loose profit.
You're contradicting yourself now, the whole point is just pointless.

View Profile You'd turn a pay2win + pay2lose package into a pay 4 dollars a month for pay2lose. Nobody wants that. :^)

Pay2Lose? Have you ever considered that Elementals is the absolute easiest way to climb out of -∞ to 1900?
Back to the topic, I believe they should not make Chaos a free empire.

View Profile Xaemon you've answered your own question. Elementals doesn't work past that point hence pay2lose.

Easiest way to climb out to 1900 =/= not working past that point. Elementals still works even against 2200 players in my experience. It just becomes substantially harder since the opponents know how to play against Elementals.

View Profile Why would you play Elementals against 2200 players when you can play Chaos instead and have an easier time because Chaos v Order doesn't get substantially harder? Pay2lose.
Anyway none of this is relevant to my original suggestion of split purchasing because I said specifically for when/after Ele gets a rework/heavy tweaking.

View Profile Still going on about that skele? 2k elementals isn't hard, you could get to 2200 pretty easily if you're a decent player. EvC isn't balanced and it may be a bit rough for elementals, but the challenge is fun. Easier time playing =/= more fun time playing.
The split purchasing is a neat idea, I don't really see a reason why you shouldn't be able to buy elementals separately. It doesn't have to be balanced to be purchased. Some people like myself like elementals, even in its current state, and would rather buy only elementals for cheaper.

So then they lose money? Great idea, they should totally add that if they want to profit.

View Profile I didn't think of it that way. I don't have a problem with the current membership system, I say we don't change it then.
