Lifetime MP-account?

[Ville]

Hey, sorry if something like this was already suggested, I didn't find any similar threads though.

My suggestion is simple. How about allowing us to buy a lifetime account for ManiaPlanet for, say, 150€? That would mean that lifetimers would get all the new titles (TM, SM, QM environments) for free. I would surely pay the price and I'm quite confident there are loads of other people who believe in the future of MP as well. Maybe the lifetimers could get a beta 2 access as well - if they are ready to pay for a game that is completely unknown for them, you can be sure they are dedicated in testing it. Then again I don't know what kind of financial solutions you have thought for the upcoming titles... but yeah, quite a few people could be interested in this. I know that I'm going to buy all the titles anyway, so why not do it in one payment.

...any opinions about this? Pros/cons?

Your suggestion is still good, if you are really a fan about Maniaplanet and all titles like QM/SM/TM².

But I'm one of the players, which think "I wait for ManiaplanetForever" (= The name ManiaplanetForever is only a pictorial imagination)^^

The price for 150€ is in my opinion to expensive (same for every titel for 20€), I would buy a lifetimeacc, when (if?) I'm sure, that TM²( I like the envi, but the content...), SM and QM are good and I see, that the games have portential

[Weeeeee]

Think this wouldnt work that well,as we cant simply get info about incoming titles :p But I would like to see a tax for people that already has some of the games.

Myself, I know that I'll buy all the titles anyway, no matter what they are like. Information, videos etc. about the upcoming environments aren't important for me. That's why I'm suggesting this anyway.

I disagree with 150€ being unreasonably high, it's the price of around 8 environments and if Nadeo is aiming for 15... I'd say it's really cheap. Maybe even too cheap, but on the other hand, Nadeo gets more money for the developement process so this could be a good solution for them as well.

I'm not sure, but I paid for TMO and TMS ~60€ => 6 Enviroments for tm, and nations was for free..^^ as well I paid for tmu 40 € again

Now I paid for canyon 20€, I will say, Canyon is still a good envi, but the content of the game has still the same level like Nations forever (with planets and manialinks/scripts). I know Maniaplanet is "new" and need some time to growing
--> We will see "maniaplanet 2.0" and I hope this new features are usefull for a online and offline player

As a consumer, I like that idea. I'd buy it.
