Its been talked that boost prices are too expensive, lets talk about reducing them then. Here's my thoughts, note that I like running sales of 5-10% off for days at a time to decrease and rise incentive.
Thoughts?

EXP BOOSTS.
100% (1 hour) = 11.99
150% (1 hour) = 16.99
200% (1 hour) = 22.99
210% (5 hours) + 3 cratekys = 105.99
320% (5 hours) + 5 cratekeys = 159.99


Cratekey Prices

I would really like to keep the base price around $5, however, I'd like to offer more per purchase, so $5 = 2. More if there's discounts.

The main reason is $2.5 is a big hit with paypal, they take 40c every transaction AND then 5%
What are your thoughts?

1 Key = 2.9
2 Key = 5.25
3 Key = 7.5
4 Key = 10
5 Key = 24
10 Key = 45
20 Key = 85

I like these prices, seems pretty fair.

Any way that you could offer 3hr boosts with a key or two and meet in the middle? 105 and 160 are still a big chunk of change.

I just feel crate keys aren't that great, the rewards are pretty worthless like pets and titles, something cool and new should come with opening a crate.

Like? Kainzo technically can't add items like Gear/Weapons due to EULA. As well as money. The items have to be cosmetic.

What about a certain time of day every week where a boost will automatically come on, other games have similar features. During these times there would be a spike in however many players are online and I believe it would help to keep the server alive and active. I also believe people would be inclined to buy followup boosts.

We do this for passive boosts on the event weekends. its pretty cool cause it stacks with boost too.
