A few years ago the Atlanta Falcons of the NFL dropped their concession prices. Cheapest in all football. Guess what, they make the most profit in all football from a concessions stand point with the cheapest prices. Just sayin....

  • I don’t know about that personally. I don’t think you need to raise the price of base games to make eververse stuff cheaper. There are people like me who won’t spend a dime In eververse, but if the prices dropped, I probably would buy stuff. That’s more money in bungies pocket without changing the base game costs. 2 bucks for a weapon ornament, I’d probably buy 5! At current prices, I’m not buying anything. I’m not in any financial hardship by any stretch, but I c any justify buying an emote in a video game for 6 bucks. Drop that price, and sure, I’d buy some!

  • That’s not what I am saying. I’m simply pointing out that comparing the low cost of concession stand prices at one stadium without taking into consideration the other factors is wrong. Ticket and parking prices are at an all time high. They balance out the potential loss in concession stands. So it would be like if Bungie charged $70 for SK so they could lower the price of cosmetics to $1-2. If you were to follow the nfl model like OP stated, that’s what it would look like.

  • They did, no one shows up to those losers games anymore though. Not even for cheap beer and food.

  • [quote]Huge difference.. People need to eat and have a drink if they are thirsty... There is nothing any of us need from eververse[/quote] I agree food beats eververse. However, I think his point was that the Falcons Stadium makes more money than any other stadium because it’s concession prices are the lowest. So even though the prices are lowest, they make the most profit because they have more buyers. If BUNGIE dropped the prices of eververse then more people would buy items. I’ll be honest if the price was $1-3 dollars for an item then I would buy a few items. Not getting one for $8-12.
