Perfect Team Plus is now $7/mo. on top of microtransactions/P2W business model on top of $40 game

can't wait for the perfect team plus season pass(tm) next year that lets you login unlimited times to the server for the low price of only $4.99/mo.

The great thing about capitalism is that you have a choice.

The two teams I spent zero last year made it to Diamond at least once with very little effort because I concentrate my time on the team that I spend some on opening day.

Try to just have fun within your means. All the really big spenders will be trying to stay in Perfect League. In PT22 none of my teams even had a Perfect curtain call but I sure had a lot of fun that year.

I'm totally FTP and made it to Diamond last year. Even finished at .500 one week. Prouder of that than the Rookie level WS wins.

Realistically, $7 a month can hardly buy you a McDonalds meal. I am basically an FTP player, but PT+ makes too much sense not to take advantage of. From OOTP's point, $7 a month times 1000 players adds up to a nice amount as well to support the game.

so the $40 you are already paying for the game isn't supporting the game?

Last I checked there was no law that said a business couldn't choose to raise prices. They could have just as easily raised the price of the game to $60. but they chose to ONLY ask for more from those players willing to pay more.

And yet, those that have no intention of paying more are the only ones complaining about the increase. I don't see any whales posting about the extra $7 a month...

That's because it's a fantastic value!

If you live up to your nickname you should understand the logic that you can spend additional money if you like, but you don't have to.

Why do you keep trying to convince others?

I haven't checked, but I bet most of your 26 posts here have been whining about how bad everything is about the game.

Spend additional money or don't spend it - your choice, just like everybody else's

Ty Cobb · 04-06-2023, 11:54 AM

You'd be right, Germaniac. In the spirit of international friendship and good will, perhaps you would offer him a nice Gouda to go with his Gewürztraminer.

Gouda is Dutch (or Swiss?), I don't have real good connections to that.

Would a bottle of Riesling help? Or a Saumagen?

Helmut Kohl forced his guests to eat Saumagen at Deidesheimer Hof

Germaniac · 04-06-2023, 04:36 PM

Double checked this ... it is Dutch

But that doesn't change that thing about Saumagen at Deidesheimer Hof, which is about 20 miles from here

You'd be right about that. They even posted that they got a refund for OOTP24 2 weeks ago and yet they're still complaining about Perfect Team Plus.

Check the date of the post Einstein

I did Einstein, you posted that you got a refund on 03-25-2023, 05:22 PM.

It's now April 13th, and you've been on the forums complaining even after getting a refund. Either crap or get off the pot.

in my people's defense, I couldn't think of a German cheese I enjoy as much, and my people aren't that far away. Likewise, I couldn't think of a Dutch wine to rival your people's exceptional whites...so there I am. A Riesling would be very nice.
