How much steel will the new heroes cost each | Forums

Hmm, 30k? Would equal 2 mythic outfits. With only 2 new heros .. well, guess everyone could get them with season arrival if not too much steel got spend on cosmetics and gear.
Season pass would be worth pretty much this way too, so more people might buy it. However, people will dislike it. Well, they will dislike everything but stuff being handed .. maybe it is more about the question if this might get negative press or not.

Cuz this game could need some good press already ...

Heh if they are to cheap season pass holders will rage. To expensive everyone else will.

What's the reason for this poll? You're asking us how much we think new classes should cost? Because clearly you're not going to get any valuable info form this.
Or maybe you want to gamble a little? :P

Hmm just for fun to see what everyone thinks they are going to cost. Sorry! Wow! Sorry!

I bought the CE and I'll get mine for free...that said, in my opinion, Ubisoft, you should not be charging more than 500 steel to unlock characters as that is what you charged to unlock the original ones. If there were no additional unlock costs for characters that were part of the base game in the first place I might get behind having an inflated cost on par with the cosmetic items, but the precedent is set and characters and maps do not constitute vanity purchases so...stick to 500 steel, kay?

First off, Pure_Energist, slow clap for you. Couldn't agree more.

I totally get the logic in this, but as Cragar212 pointed out, if they do that then it ends up feeling a bit abusive to some of the Season Pass holders. The week early access is cool and all of that, but if the characters cost so little to unlock, then they're being free to pass holders is effectively meaningless. Given that's one of the biggest selling points of the pass (for me anyway), I can't imagine they'll do that.

15-20K is my guess.

500 steel? I really don't think so. More then everything else, people will want those new heros. For nothing else, they will spend as much on. So i can't imagine a decision that isn't business-driven.

Eh, if you're getting the free mythic outfits for each class, which is what, 15000 steel? Not that they're necessarily worth it but it think the fake steel value is still there.


...and I'm not saying that's what they WILL cost, but that's what they SHOULD cost.

It seems very similar to the Rainbow Six Siege model. The beginning characters were all very cheap, but with each new expansion or DLC the new operators were 25k and still are. They NEED an incentive for people to buy the season pass. It may sound greedy to you, but thats business. One thing I have to hand to Ubisoft, I like their model of expansions and DLC much better than mast if not all companies. Most make you buy the season pass or each individual DLC to access the content at all. At least they make it available in someway. Which would you rather or do you beleive businesses should just not make money?
