"PTW" = Pay to Win
There's the problem. These items are only purchasable via Olives, meaning in order for a player to get his hands on one of these, he must pay around $4 for something that isn't going to last for more than 3 days.
Being that I can buy a Premium Battleship that will last me forever for $8, I'd say they are expecting QUITE a lot of money for these little buggers.
I'd be fine with this whole system if it was not in any way "PTW".
Actually, half of them are free.
And don't expect them to cost $4 each either. Much closer to $1. I know the exact planned price right now, bu A) I might get in trouble and B) that is most likely going to change. But they're far from $5 each.
Plus, we're trying to convince SDE to make all of them buyable with credits and to work out a system that also makes them available for olives.
This is why people need to calm down about this issue. For one thing, no one even understand it properly except GMs, SDE and the test team. And regardless of that, it isn't bloody finished yet!
