Test Run (Merc)

(Dirmagnos) #1

Theres been a lot of discussions about how to allow players to test out mercs without needing to buy them or waiting for next test rotation.
So, an idea. An MTR - Merc Test Run.
Player pays 2000(for 30k mercs) or 3000(for 50k mercs) creds to test out that partucular merc for 10 games over period of 3 days.
When one of those(whichever is first) expires, then player is prompted if he wannts to buy a merc. If players choses “yes”, then alredy paid sum is substracted from final payment. If player choses “no”, then nothing happens.
As result, player gets to test out merc of his choosing, without pressure. If he actually decides to buy that mrc, then he still pays only merc full price, with no additional costs involved. And if he decides not to buy merc, then in those 10 games, hel earn pretty enough to cover most of expenses for that merc test drive.
Reson for 3 days period is to prevent “stocking up” on mercs, without actually buying them, just to keep them on hand and use only when needed and then “retest” again once expired.

What’s to stop them from just renting them indefinitely? If they make back the money, then there is no benefit to buying the merc.

You can make back, even with dailies, roughly anough creds to rent, on semi-permanent duration, 2 mercs at the same time.
And thats it, no tradingup cards, nor getting any notable profit.
