As it sounds logical to have a "beast badge"; a Fade badge seems ok.

The goal is to see if people are willing to get a badge that would fit between Shadow and Onos. It could be Lerk or both Fade and Lerk or Gorge... whatever. For the sake of clarity i stick with Fade in this poll.

The poll is over here:

It ends in one week. I'll post results.
Pls "Up" the thread to have more voters. Especially the ones that just couldn't buy.

    is 100$ really the minimum? thats a little much for just a badge. maybe change it to user input prices.. i would maybe pay 15$ for just the badge.

    You have a lot of option between 0 to 75$
    Shadow is 75$, Onos 333$. A lot of ppl asked for something to fill the gap.

    Actually people want something to fill the gap between Shadow 75 and Insider 8000 because the 333 is no longer available. That's a much more significant gap than 75-333.

    $333 is already a good load of money. More money is starting to be considered as an "addiction".

    Ok you nerds and NS junkies... ( ;) ) I modified the question a little. You can now select and write down if above the maximum of 275$ (means more work to sort out results).

    Include plushies with a $100+ tier and they'll sell like hotcakes.

    Bob you are on it!! here is what my thoughts on new badges:

    1) Gorge Badge that is $400-$500, comes with a gorge plushy and you can get two skins- a battle gorge skin or a furry skin -100 units

    2) Fade Badge that is $200, comes with additional skin - 50 units

    3) EXO Badge that is $100, comes with Camo skin and that carries over to EXO when you suit up - 200 units

    There is $80,000....

    Q1: "Would you buy a fade badge"
    A: "No"

    Then follow several mandatory questions about how many hundreds of dollars you'd pay for a fade badge and which extras you want to come with it. Make those questions optional please.

    I'd pay nothing for just a badge. That said I've got a shadow jar on my desk, because I do want to support ns2 but I won't settle for less then a new skulk skin.

    I would also pay more then $75 for something even cooler, lerk and fade skins come to mind.

    Just a badge though? Not even worth a penny to me, badges are annoying in game and on the forums they're basically like paying for a tiny pre-made sig.


    Thinking on it a lerk skin would be worth $100 to me. I'd buy that for sure.
    Personally I'd have liked to see reinforced be more modular, I really don't care about most of the stuff that comes in those packages.

    The more expensive the badge is the less actual revenue is going to come from it. The number of people who will buy it is just too small.

    I will probably gut someone like a trout if an extra tier is released with a plushie incentive, with no existing upgrade options available. Why not just sell plushies in the store at a reasonable markup?

    dat plushy craze.

    I might want to buy a Fade badge, or a Lerk badge, or whatever. I would be willing to pay between 75 dollars and 175, depending. It certainly makes sense to let the Onos badge be the highest. I don't know about the rewards, though. Maybe you might get a 1 minute slot on NS2HD to maybe flog a gaming-related product, or something.

    In game shadow badges seem quite common so I wouldn't want something so common.

    In the poll you have to select o a model or a plusie even if you don't want one.

    I would just like a shadow fade or something.

    I think this should be fair:

    gorge 50
    lerk 100
    fade 200
    onos 300

    black exo 600
