Uhm looks like paintjobs are here (didnt saw it here on the forum and just stumbled over them while outfitting a Griffin)... unfortunately they will be removed on 1st of December.
So... are we really supposed to drop up to 2,5k gold on a paintjob for ONE month?
Are they just trying to piss some ppl off (100%sure there will be those not able to understand "temporary","removal" etc).
Red Griffin and Shark Griffin are quite cool, nevertheless...

Nah, they announced yesterday that you can keep them. It was dumb to even suggest otherwise, really.
I think Pix is just now trying to figure out how they can make money. They haven't been that good at it in the past. I think it's good for us all.

I would honestly be discouraged by that ingame text about "temporary" still... not that I am in any position to think about spending 20 bucks for a skin (sick pricing btw. A cool skin for half the money would be something that I'll eventually buy if I dont go out on the weekend, but this?) |

The main avenue for public communication from Pixonic is facebook, or so it seems....

Making money from paint jobs is a great idea imo. Keeps Pix from making some pay to win bot or wep and keeps game dynamics the same. Customization (visually) is a good way to incenivize paying, while not penalizing players who choose to just keep the stock look of their bots.
I could care less as to bot aesthetics, I just want to max my hangar. But if someone else will plop down cash for "custom" paint, by all means do so. It helps pay the bills for Pix and keeps the game a true free to play platform.

It's a bit pricey at the moment though. Let's see if they do a sale. |

They can have 25 gold, or 2500 silver for a skin, maybe. Really dont care enough at this point. More important things to deal with.

I think it would be great for the game if they found keep doing stuff like this just because they get money from it and I can keep playing without being forced to pay, just make the game stable first. There's nothing I hate more then a 'free' game that forces you to pay. |

Hope to see it expanded to other bots and make "clan" skins available. Weapon skins?
