Having chosen hunting as my main passtime it has been a requirement to deposit a couple of times to satisfy this activity and to date this totals $50. Living in the UK this equates to £31 an amount NOT unnaceptable to pay for such an indepth, challenging gaming experience like PE.
Any newbie reading this thinking it's too expensive to play etc. etc. .... in my opinion is playing it wrong!
(I await your angry responses)
I beleive this is a game not to be rushed. It's clever relationship with skills and usuable items, for example weapons, means that if you want to shortcut the learning process then it's going to be an expensive one.
After 7 weeks in, my rifle skills are at 1260, my aim is coming along nicley as are most of my cobat related skills. I hunted from almost day 1 but In hindsight I wished I had spent a little more time sweating as this gives you a couple of extra peds to equip with.
Having reached most of the Teleport locations - just Twin Peaks (damn Atrax) and Minopolis,NymphTown to go, I spend my days still hunting low end mobs (snablesnot,combibo,Exo's,snarksnot) and am still skilling well with my Opalo + A103.
By keeping my goals realistic I have managed to return a slight gain in Peds this week (I don't like the word profit - after all this is a game) - whilst building my skills, knowledge of the game and a storage locker full of loot.
I'd love to get out of the orange jumpsuit, or go hunting uber mobs but I am also appreciative of the complexity of the game to realise that this will come in time. I'm having great fun even on the low end mobs and cannot wait for my first global. Judging by how excited I was after getting 16peds from a Corn the other day and a 18ped haul from a Snablesnot female Alpha last night then you can bet I'll be playing PE for some time to come.
By moving around the teleports and looking for mobs 'out or their usual locations' or selecting only certain maturities I have managed to bag a number of good loots from easy targets. I suggest that with Pixie armour, a TT Opalo and $10 worth of ammo - every newbie should be able to progress as I have done.
keep the faith - those global/hof days are not far away.
