With a new studio shooter, Active, Riot looks to replicate the success of its beating League of Legends, for its pricing, cosmetics and microtransaction.
During a visit to the Riot headquarters in Los Angeles, Polygon spent time with a few development team members. We wanted to hear more about what players can expect if they want to buy skins from them Allowed.
Much like that League of Legends, Allowed it will be a free game to play. Riot will offer players skins and other decorations in the form of microtransaction. None of these things will change how the game plays, how it looks. In the meantime, the cosmetics in the game include weapon skins and sprinklers, which can be dropped off the map at any time.
Each of these items is purchased from the game store, or acquired through the game's warfare. In accordance with Allowed executive producer Anna Donlon, the game will feature ways to get jewelry purchased directly, or acquired through game play. But there will be empty boxes Allowed and all payment skins will be directly purchased.
Donlon also said the group was planning to make the skins of weapons inside Allowed improved. While it didn't go into details, he did say that, when introduced, Allowed
The only thing that wouldn't be Allowed in presentation by the skins of bullets. Donlon explains that the game's main emphasis is on competition, and that character skins will make it extremely difficult to maintain integrity. The characters themselves are designed to have the same dialog box, and to be visible from the rest of the map. This means that when you start changing things like the clothes they are wearing or their color schemes, it can completely change how easy it is to identify specific characters. But that doesn't mean that Active & # 39;
"I think [the character skins] will have to be in such a way that nothing can affect the gameplay," Donlon said. "I'm going to slow down. I think there's a way to do that. And those are the things we want to explore."
All the details say how Allowed it will handle its microtransaction, and what kind of skins will be available for purchase, or to pass the war, we'll have to wait for the game's beta, or full release for the summer.
