iso/cover pot

edited May 2014 in MPQ General Discussion
I wasn't sure if this post should be in suggestions or general discussion so I just put it here thinking it would be moved if necessary.

Anyway, my idea is pretty simple but would be really effective for growing as an alliance.
I think it would be really cool if instead of selling covers that are pointless or if you have a huge stash of iso you could just submit it into the pot for your alliance. Everyone in the alliance has access to it and if something is desperately needed or a player is just missing that one cover for that 3* character you get a bazilion of, they have the opportunityto obtain it through the team.

Just an idea. Wanted to see what people thought. By the way, if this has already been brought up you can just ppost the link and I will read that thread. Thx

    I doubt it would happen. People spending HP to buy missing covers is a big revenue source for D3. This provides a way around it.

    Ha. Now that you point that out its a pretty dumb idea. Back to the drawing board!

    Not a dumb idea at all. From a player QoL point of view, it is rather an excellent idea and one that has been suggested a few times before.

    It is however, indeed at odds with the publisher's current monetization model; a monetization model that hinges on frustrating your players to the point of getting them to cave in and buy things. Now that is a bad idea...

    Yep, I'd personally really like the system. I pulled a yellow Lazyshield from a standard token this morning. He's my only fully covered 3*, and already built right. It would have been great to be able to give that to an alliance mate, since I know we have some without him fully specced.

    Others have suggested having a way to buy things in game that are purely superficial, like new costumes for established characters. I'd much rather buy those than the 3 green covers I'm missing for Punisher. But alas, this is the revenue generation system D3 chose, and they must feel it's worthwhile to continue with it.

    Maybe if we had to spend HP to put the cover in the pot ( * = 125 HP, ** = 250 HP and *** = 500HP).
    Same for the member who wants to get the cover from the pot

    Isn't it a good idea from both point of view ?
