So I just finished linking my account from Firefall to Ember and Am I really getting 100 Dollars worth of credits to use in Ember!?
Thats insane!?
I would really like it and appreciate it but How is this actually made possible?
Congratulations Shuriko!
On the front 'monetary' end it is possible due to the limited scope of player base receiving the larger reward. Add with that the realization that this is digital in-game funds (content) exchangeable in the physical universe for only time.
On a broader aspect, this is very intelligent pre-alpha release marketing.
Among other positive aspects for the growth of Em8er, it can help a lot in early development as bringing back in the core group of contributors/testers enables smoother communication flows from 'knowledgeable' sources to work out bugs. (If a player can state, "This is a lot like when the melding repulsor glitched and would not always accept crystite resonators back before Bane claw was removed but after rhino was nerfed/fixed." the developers could have a better idea of what asterisk(s) they were supposed to delete.)
Edited out some bbc font code
