    The ONLY thing left unmentioned so far is how much energy will cost and how long it will last.

    There are two extreme scenarios here:
    1. OVERPRICED /// I Am Rich returns
    - 99$ for 10000 games :) ( hey, only 10 cent per game )
    - Most people will be like WTF? But eventually some hardcore fans will get it...
    - Calc: 2 Mio of people will download it within 1 month. 5 000 buy energy = 500.000 US$
    - just imagine how much one could brag by having enough energy to really max. out on upgrading and pwn all your friends all the time
    - it's the IAmRich.app effect so there will be buyers trust me :)

    2. RECESSION ENERGY
    - 0.99$ for 1000 games
    - ok it's only 10x cheaper, but sounds better right?!?! :)
    - Calc: of those 2 Million say 200 000 get it.... = 200.000 US$


    Or anything in between those extremes :)
    I think they won't announce that until final release so it's the last piece of the puzzle we'll have to find out for ourselves.

    If energy goes on sale for 100 US$.... I'm already looking forward to people pressing the WTF ( where to find ) button :) LOL.....:D:D:D:D:D:D

    I bet its .99 for 5-10 games. Something very close to that.

    Price for Energy?

    I also think that the price will be about 99 cents too be extremely easy for people to click "buy now" without really thinking. Then it would be simple to purchase at least one per day and not feel guilty since it would be less expensive then buying a coffee at Starbucks.

    I also think that they may have discounts for larger quantities, say 10% off if you purchase 10 items at once.

    But you will get energy for 3-4 games every 90 minutes. I think 99c for 10 games at least. Because you would have to buy energy every 30 min or so.

    Guys. I have high hopes for today(though expect them to be crushed by apple once again...) but rally master, catan, NBA and a whole bunch of anticipated apps came out so maybe today will finally be the day!

    That still doesn't change the fact that it could come any other time instead of today. It's a possibility of course but not like "IT GONA COME OUT NAO".

    The only way I will buy if it give me 10 or more games for $.99. I just dont see the practicallity of paying for sonething that will recharge in 90 minutes. But i could see myself dying of boredom in the first few days. I wont make it a daily habit, but maybe doing it once a week.

    I don't understand why you spent the time shattering his optimism.

    Yeah. I think 99c is the right price. But I think they need to be more generous
    about how many games this will buy. I think 50 matches at least. It's like 3,5 hours if gameplay. And say you get to play the game daily for half an hour on average. That's a week for 1$ = 4$ a month per player on average that's not too bad.

    Right. If the game is great, I don't mind paying 2$ per week regularly. But once you've upgraded everything after a few months there's little reason to buy anymore. So they will need to be adding more stuff to spend credits on.

    Mj just logged in 30 minutes ago. Did she change the title of this thread?????? I thought it was longer before, saying something like coming soon. It's not there anymore. It either got rejected or will be coming real soon :)

    Exactly. I 100% agree, and the worst part is by the time they release Eliminate, Nova and MC:S multi. already be released

    not a chance. its not gonna take two months for eliminate to be approved. MC: multiplayer is coming out christmas. Nova will either be out before or after it to stop them from killing each other's sales.

    le sigh.. you're right. she did change the title.

    and i don't think it's a positive change.

    if it was coming "real" soon, why change it in the first place? this thread would be locked after the game was released.
