Is it possible that this option will ever be made available?
I also had a question on another board which probably belongs here, so uh yeah... Crafting is a great tool you've implemented, but you could do a lot more. The loot drops on the test server are crazy. Some really nice items. Will crafting ever have the ability to modify the stats on items (Clothing, jewelry, our decks??)
While anything is possible, I doubt that lifetime memberships will ever be offered, nor would I be comfortable if they were offered. A Lifetime membership offer is usually the tactic of a company that either has a brand new product and wants to generate some business, or the device of a failing company that is desperate for money and/or wants to get whatever they can. In either case, it wouldn't speak highly of the company's view of itself or its product (an MMORPG in this case). KingsIsle and Wizard101 aren't new, and I doubt they're desperate for business, as busy as the game is, so it would be foolish of them to offer a lifetime membership to the game.
I'd also love the option of having a lifetime membership, but just to add to that, would they give you a monthly allowance of crowns, or would you have to buy those on top of everything else?
Buying all the areas with crowns is a great option. However I like to PvP a lot, so I would still have to continue to spend crowns to play ranked matches. With a membership it would be available to me. I'd just like to pay it all and never have to worry about it again.
thats why you keep subscribing whether offline from a prepaid to buying it online thought if the game were suffering in popularity they could possibly give it away
