graduated tiering on package pricing

wanted to share this with all and let you know plariums position on packages... i recently contacted plarium on the fact that the more pakcages you buy the more it costs and the less you get ... they had moved the pricing up again so i asked them why and told them i would not pay that.. there response is that a computer does all of that and there is nothing they can do.. in other words, they would rather me shut the city down and buy nothing(which i am doing) because they really dont care if its priced out of range or not... to me this is a problem with the mindset of this company... i didnt question the amounts for packages, merely the tiering of the offers.. they will do nothing, so i will now do nothing til the end of the year..lol.. so no matter what whether you buy some or a lot , they will move you up and dont care... even upon a request, they will do nothing

The system distributes in-game offers automatically. So we cannot influence them in any way. The game has a lot of various promotions and offers. We often launch special limited seasonal and holiday offers at a discounted price.  So I am sure you will find a great deal to your taste😉

Hi LEM:

The price of the packages rises in price... but also you will find more inventory in them. Besides, we have had some offers lately with the same price for all, like battle or guardian pass. Btw, did you check your pm from me? :)

Who made the System ? Plarium

Do not treat us as idiots

All packages are Overpriced.

How much ? Most of them at least 20x, the rest about 10x to 15x.

well.. plarium wins because it is individuals that play this game and i have to tell you when i messaged plarium about pricing the pkg up again and i told them they had priced themselves out of what i was willing to spend... they gave me the same answer you did.. so.. i just shut down 8 cities that i control for me , my kids and a couple of friends and will not do anything but maintenance till january 1... if it does not change then.. i will not play any more... im done... computers should not control humans... thats why we have humans operate them... so.. in this stare down.. its my money, not yours and plarium is unwilling to accomodate someone tells them that the lowest price package on 8 cities is 49.5 us dollars and one that just wnet to 79.5... they are out of their mind stupid

p.s. for some reason plarium doesnt understand that they need us, not the other way around... this reminds me of why socialism doesnt work, free markets keep the value up and the prices down... plarium is basically saying that a computer decides everything... lol.. how arrogant and out of touch they are in the middle of a pandemic... and when someone writes, that never does and supports the platform, the answer is "we can do nothing", but how about 800 drachma... lol... are they ok? so, now i shut them all down. wil not buy a thing for months and see if anything happens... and if it doesnt... im gone

We have got lots of different offers in the game that can suit any taste or pocket. In addition, we often launch special limited seasonal and holiday offers at a discounted price.
Here are also the tips on how to get more drachmas in the game: do not miss Spartan Allegiance; always open Coalition Chests; take part in our tournaments & quests.

We appreciate our players' feedback, especially their useful advice in our communities. We liked your answer in this thread a lot and want to send you a reward for being so helpful. Could you please answer the moderator in PM?

lets get this straight... if you have packages at a price and i like them i buy several of them... and by doing so you then raise the tier to a higher price for less value.. when i tell you to go back to where i was comfortable... you tell me you cannot.. which i have to say is bullshit.. i am the customer, period... i have told you and your support team i will not pay the higher prices for these tiers.. it is predatory .. i have also told you if this is not corrected i will not play at all.. so.. your are actually no help at all.. so no one should buy anything because you will just raise the price for less value if you participate a lot in doing business with you... this is totally backwards,, the hubris is stunning to watch... so.. either its fixed to where i was comfortable or im out of here... here is a hint... its called CUSTOMER service... not there is nothing i can do.. a computer tells us what to do and we follow like robots

btw .. computer do exactly what they are programmed to do by people... talk to your people to rectify the program.. or tell me how long i ned to not sign in for it to be corrected.. i will leave my coa so it does not effect them.. but how long do you need to be totally inactive for it to change?... you are giving me zero options at this point.. just that you are helpless and held hostage by a computer program

as far as my tone... im frustrated, disappointed and have run ot of venues to try to adress this concern... it is obvious you do not work for plarium... so, for that i apoligize.. i now what to do now... and i this point i cannot recommend anyone play on plarium games ,, i feel thta thye are tryng to get evrything back from the ars fiasco.. and to be honest.. dont give a damn what anyone (customers ) think.. it isnt your fault.. and i would not like being in your position to field questions related to a game that is so predatory in nature for money that it is totally inflexable when dealing with people

Hello LEM: I have been trying to contact you for several days. Can you check my PM, please?

Regarding your tone and your general feelings... What can I say? I am not a computer. And I don't work for Plarium either. But I am sorry to see you in a bad mood.

My offers in-game are always low because I rarely coin. In past, they raised a bit sometimes, but they went back to "normal" quite fast when I stop buying them. 

Of course, we would like to see you happy playing our favorite game, but prices on packages are Plarium policy. If you disagree with the prices, or you don't find any offer suitable right now, you can choose not to buy. The offers will change according to your activity. 

There are a lot of features right now you can play for drachmas and inventory, as Anastasia described. Also, being in an active team can help with conflict rewards (that are a lot) and coalition tournaments. 

I am sorry to read that you are considering leaving. Besides this issue... don't you enjoy playing?

this reminds me of a parable i read once... a good shepherd sheers his sheep wisely to feed his family for life, for cuts too deep will kill what he shepherds and can only feed his family once..  and yes i am considering it... why wouldnt i?.. being active and particpating in buying packages has rewarded me with a more expensive game because of it... i fight against coas bigger than mine always, never smaller.. i fight for the small coas and small players that are getting ravaged by larger more powerful ones.. and i never complain and i never blink.. hopefully i stand for something, for fairness and competition in the spirit of the game.. to fight up , not down.. to do this has a cost... and a risk/reward.. you wnat more fighting and competition.. do not punish those that actively participate in doing business.. be fair.. allow players to chose what level they participate in spending.. dont foce them into the position i am in.. sheer me, but dont cut so deep that i wont allow myself to continue

if you want a real suggestion.. allow players to chose their tiers of packages... some can only afford smallers ones, but if they buy it goes up. this game is turning into a tournament format because frankly, most cannot afford to fight due to these tiers... and them gradually moving up and taking months to go down.. i have nevr been interested in tournaments in a game that at its heart and soul is one of conflict.. and how you conduct yourself in those conflicts... you win some and lose some... but in the end what drives the game is motion, activity... being better that day then the other guy... or worse, and how you overcome it... most of the people i trust the most i have had the bloodiest fights with.. becasue we have each had the full measure of the other.. and the respect earned led to friendship with honor.. and that is growing more distant a thing.. a brotherhood based in competition... head up, no holds barred and laughing with an opponent worthy of what was shared

and the shame of the ars deal.. is that plarium should pay attantion to what sold those packages... pricepoints,, 1 dollar to 20 dollars u.s. and even though i didnt know about them til way late in the game.. its a lesson that pricepoints are what sells.. i bet if everyone woke up tomarrow and there were packages for 1.95 every player would buy all they could stand.. or even 4.95.. it is about price points especially with covid.. sheer the sheep... dont kill them

Hello LEM. Thanks for your feedback again. I see your point, and as a player myself I share some of them. I really think that cheaper packages would increase purchase, yet, is not our call. What I wanna say if that, despite buying or not, Sparta is a nice developed game with a lot of features you can play without spending. Of course, with a sweet big inventory, you will enjoy more the game, but this is not a must. 

I don't know your coalition or your game, but sometimes for lack of activity, I changed coalitions. Also, coalitions can merge to be a stronger team, make easier to get the rewards, more team activity and rewards for everyone. Maybe you can try that. To be in a full active team is big fun :)

intersting you say that iaonnis, i do yes.. any larger players does.. and any coalition to be viable on the server needs players exactly like me.. the difference is what you do with what you have and how you conduct yourself. i dont hit players with 80k agema, nor dimecha..lol.. i could but i do not.. as far as the attitude that players bring to the word "coiner" or commentary like that.. to be honest its offensive... im one of the best players in this game.. and its not from just using a credit card.. and here is something else.. i use my card so my coa doesnt have to... and smaller ones that get hit by abusing their size.. that kind of commentary is just damn offensive.. because im one of those guys that would defend a guy like you if i thought your were being bullied or yoru coa was.. its easy to say its just the card.. but it isnt.. everyone spends.. but the why and what you do with it is the difference..

matter of fact i looked you up iaonnis, you are in semper... on server 2.. are you keeping up with some of you lev 130-140 players hitting level 70-80 players or small coas... and wiping them out... does that matter to you?.. even had crusader level 139 actually tell my son bogart that he hits smaller ones because they cant stop his general.. and that is exactly where he gets all of his pvp... im that guy that fights those exact guys in your coa..

Recently my lowest offer size increased 5 times but the value of the items in the offer increased only by 2.2 - 2.5 times. As there is less value for my money, I'll wait to spend till the 'system' understands that my interest to spend has decreased as well.
