This game should not be pay to win Time = $$$ $$$ = Time I think micro transactions would only work with strange coins, everyone already has access to strange coins. We even have surplus coins in some cases. Time (on this game) = x•RNG X•RNG = exotics Exotics = Xur Xur = strange coins So finally $$$= strange coins With this comes the question of ratio. Hard playing people already have a lot of coins and introducing another avenue to collect them can create an inflation effect (I know it doesn't actually affect any other player other than themselves) So the rich(in coins) wouldn't be considered "rich" and this concept would turn away a lot of players. This means the the $$$ ratio needs to be high. I would like to propose a 1coin 1$ ratio. It's incredibly high and not a good deal, only the desperate would buy into it. But you've heard about all the people always just coming up short a few coins for Xur. There really is a demand for it. We all want a better game. And our developers can produce one for us. They just need the cash :(
