Let's take your money so we can take your fake money!

then there would be no drawback to death if you could just store everything. dying is an important aspect in any game because in most scenarios it encourages you learn how to avoid it and play differently. take dark souls for exampull

 

"Oh, wow, learn not to climb THIS GIANT MOUNTAIN THAT YOU WILL END UP FALLING DOWN ON THE OTHER SIDE. JUST GO AROUND THE ENTIRE PLANET."

 

Well I believed they lowered the percent a bit. The game is currently unbalanced and I seem to have more than enough pixels at any given moment to do what I need to do.

They do take a lot of pixel away but do you really need it? You get it easy and rarely spend it.

 

you get me wrong.

let me explain. Losing Pixel on death is fine and dandy (30%). But paying 40% to store Pixels is absurd and bad design. No need to punish a player twice for playing.

just remove the low tier of banking, and make the lowest tier to 10.000 Pixels, then you can bank that for free. Chances are ppl will still have hard time achieve that without death, and losing big portion of their Pixels before they can finally Bank it.

With the planned system.... You get punished twice. Terrible.

 

I'm fine with 30%, just not during beta. Beta is when you'll die the most, and pixels are needed for everything.

 

by "delivery performed terribly", i mean it wasn't written very clearly, hence all the people replying with confused posts. i actually like that you've taking a sarcastic approach to it (being an abuser of sarcasm myself).

 

Your character respawns on their ship with a participation trophy.

 

The reason you lose 40% from banking and 30% from dying is because banking is intended to be used by people who die often rather than rarely. If you die twice you lose more money than if you had just stored it.
You're only comparing the banking fee to a single death penalty, rather than multiple deaths like it's balanced around and intended to be compared with.

 

Refer to stairs picture.

 

Then don't store your pixels. It's an option, you're not required to store them.

 

He's comparing the loss of his in game money to how he feels as though he "lost" his money by putting forth enough money to get into the beta. He also brings up the dev's attempt to help you guys by adding a bank system that costs an amount of cash to store it.
Point is that he sounds like a brat that doesn't like to lose anything ever. He was probably one of those kids in school that really believe's he's special or something. You know, the kind of kid that would get teased and replies with "NUH UH! my mommy says I'm smart!" and etc. Maybe Games that aren't in beta are more you're speed, or maybe complex and sandbox games are less your speed, maybe you should look into other areas of gaming instead.

 

You too. Refer to my stairs picture post.


Also, side note, this thread is BLOWING UP my alerts. Lol.

 

Storing your Pixels should be just as basic as storing your materials.

 

Disagree. Money in the early game can be hard to get, mostly because it required pixels to craft even beginner stuff... though that's changing, so not really an issue anymore.

I don't understand what point your trying to make with this reply. There are a lot of options in this game to avoid death, you can look farther than enemies can see, you can place blocks almost everywhere, so if you take your time it doesn't matter what obstacle is in your way. if you play smart death can be avoided. Your frustration might be better understood if you explained to us your scenario where you first acknowledged and became disappointed at the 30% and 40% 'tax'. There's no reason to be upset.

 

guys don't condescend, I don't agree with the OP, but I don't feel compelled to insult him, and neither should anyone else. Either provide helpful replies, or don't reply at all please. Thank you.

 

Yes I realize you're being sarcastic, you're very clever. When you're ready to make an actual and intelligent reply I'll come back. Till then I think my work here is done and my point has proven itself.

 

Eh, you don't like my opinion, wah. I await additional images summing up how you feel and an explanation about how it's relevant.

If you don't like the design, wait until someone mods it out or it's rebalanced. The game's been in beta a week, and features that are in now will likely be rebalanced a few dozen times with plenty of people not agreeing and modding things to their liking (which is how banking pixels came on to the table in the first place).
