Calling the reaction your playerbase had a temper tantrum in the same breath that your company is admitting they f**ked up with the pricing model is really disingenuous. Personal attacks suck, but the vast majority of the complaining I saw was about the content you guys are admitting was a misstep.

I just dont like how you can throw money at a limited time items and it's ok? Like what happen to earning your stuff like man modern warfare was soo good I miss doing that stuff but I guess we will never get that because of ea huh?

I’d wager that this game has made more than most $60 games already. If you add up your revenue, how many copies of Apex Legends @ $60 does it translate to? Close to 10 million?

At this point, there’s really no need to overprice stuff. You’ve made your money. $7 for a loot box is too high and $18 for a skin is too high. Halve those prices and you’re closer. You’ll probably get more players spending with lower prices too. Heck I’d probably buy a skin each fortnight or so if they were $5-$7 (and good)

Amen. Sorry if my post came off as rude by the way.

I have a sincere question @dko5... by buying the battle pass each season, am I supporting the game in a way that makes it feasible to operate profitably? In other words, is $40-$50 / year per player enough to make this game work or is that not enough of a contribution?

I think of my purchase of the battle pass as my support for the game, rather than spending a lot of money for specific skins in a one-off event. But would be interested to know if I actually qualify as a real supporter at that contribution level.

So just to be clear, you're not apologizing for the outrageous prices, the massive paywall, or the gambling. You're apologizing for not telling us about it first?

Oh.. Well I guess you can also remember when developers weren't money grabbing f**ks that scammed their players too? Free to play blah blah blah that doesn't give you any right to charge $20 for a skin you should be setting the tone for other company's to follow and stop f**king your player base who commit their time to play you're game. Good riddance to your game I loved it at release bought both season pass's lvl 100, hundreds hours but after seeing how greedy you got (no surprise really as you're ea's bitch) the games uninstalled and anything from you in the future can die as quickly as its released IMO. And f**k anyone that's saying this is better, like take there dick out your mouth and have some respect for yourself. Yes iv gone over the top and I can blame the whiskey all I like but iv gone from thinking oh shit these devs care to yep just as bad as ea's reputation. You had n...

Part of the problem is that you set your initial price point so high that even your discounted prices are still too steep for most people.

For perspective, in another popular online game, Elder Scrolls Online, you can typically pick up new outfits for between $5-10, with only the super fancy ones matching the default Apex pricing by clocking in at around $18-$20. In both cases, those outfits are much more prominent and visible at all times than they are in a game like Apex; ESO is a social-heavy MMORPG, where you and others around you will spend a lot of time looking at your appearance, as opposed to only seeing it in a character select screen and very briefly during combat itself. So, to recap, they're A.) usually cheaper than your offerings and B.) offer more value to boot, even when priced similarly.

To look at a different, more PvP-centric game, you can take a look at World of Warships. While World of Warships has some comically expensive items for sale, fo...

No wonder you guys can't afford real servers and feel the need to price gouge a game aimed at children and young adults.

You know we would spend more money if the skins were cheaper.. like for example, weeks and weeks go by with me looking at $18 skins and having no interest to drop that kind of money on a cosmetic, however if they were half that price, I’d probably buy something out of every week.

A positive note for sure, but you will get no praise from me for fixing your mistakes. Lets just hope we can truly learn from them.

So if you want everything, would it be cheaper to get the loot boxes?
