I am wondering if there are any suggestions or plans to add real world money transactions into the game?

For example to get a head in the game more quickly you could purchase a orbital drop of granite bricks for $0.30 USD? And Tynan could limit
or reduce certain resources to make micro transactions more needed? Anyone else agree?

Um.

WHY.

Why would ANYONE want that?

We're already paying for the damn game, and for it to even WORK you'd have to remove modability.

In other words, HELL NO.

Let me guess...
You work for Eletronic Arts! Aaah, now everything makes sense.

Kidding aside, Rimworld is a single-player offline game. You do not need internet connection and probably never will. Microtransactios are a feature of MMO and online multiplayer games.

If this was added to the game, there is no reason someone would spend money on it. They would rather open the develpment mode and spawn the itens.

But... I would purchase the hell out of a T-shirt engraved with the image of Agent the Agent capturing Kim, the pop idol, as she struggles in pain Agent has a smile in his face. The image shows the outskirt of a small town. The art has realistic form and there are 7 squirrels burning in the low side of the picture.

I'm so sorry I did not mean for people to write such detailed replies I'm joking. I feel bad if I wasted time. I feel the exact same way and I hope people enjoy reading this. I thought it would be funny to see if anyone would realize I was kidding. I was expecting people to be like. Yeah right... haha etc lol

Yes I recently made a comment about how Rimworld and it's development is defiantly not EA! I have offically boycotted EA by the way. Even if they release a game I may somewhat like I won't be able to buy it. Not unless there ways change. They ruined the Sims... And everything else they touch. So yeah no please Tynan don't take this suggestion!

I love the art descriptions in this game. And I don't buy any fancy shirts I don't really like anything but bland shirts with no text or picture. But I agree that is a great shirt idea! I would lol if I saw anyone wearing that and I'd love to see it.

Thanks for confirming this was a joke, my faith in humanity has been restored.

Better bury this thread in the deepest abyss so no necromancer will find it ever again...  :o
There are already too much "pay-to-win" games out there and games which utilize µTransactions badly.
And RimWorld is single player. You can cheat whenever you feel like without wasting money on virtual aids.
Seriously, a really bad joke.

Rimworld shirts would be kinda cool with the minimalist graphics. I could see myself wearing a (masterwork quality) muffalo T-shirt.

Yeah, a purple-ish button down T-shirt with a small muffalo as logo on the pocket.

Or alot of mini-muffalos around.

*Yells* Mr. Tynan! Can I sell rimworld clothes? My sister kinda works with this. I'm would be pleased to give a share for the intelectual patent.
