Paid to Play - Post Relaunch

iStingerWould love to see RazerPay rewarding zSilver for every $x spent. We might do that in the future.

Paid to Play - Post Relaunch

shmekermeisterOf course not! Many of us were happy that you brought P2P back! It would be a shame to shut it down because of vocal minority. I believe that most of the community still appreciates the program, and shutting it down would be a punish for us, too. :frown_: Honestly, the "vocal minority" in this case creates a bad environment for everyone else. So we would also like to avoid such a situation.

hasimo14better shut down all the free ways.... no matter you want there is always complaint unsatisfied and ungreatful people.... I like free ways but if this method makes more negative then positive, yes it's better to shut it down.... I try softminer with my laptop and it's not working, so I uninstall it and that's it no complain.... Yes we are considering it and going back to the standard way of just rewarding our customers when they purchase products (like every other company out there). I realize that when there are free ways, it creates a lot of complaints.

Paid to Play is live in Cortex Mobile

Basically there are separate caps for Cortex PC and Cortex Mobile so that you can earn double the Razer Silver daily.

Thoughts on Razer SoftMiner

iStingerAs a long time Razer fan, I am conflicted with their recent announcement of SoftMiner. SoftMiner is obviously mining something for Razer at the expense of your electricity and GPU life, which is what zSilver is paying for. I would rather they go back to the Paid to Play model and refine it to Razer's advantage. The old model only made Razer bleed money. They could have collaborated with game developers by only allowing certain games to earn zSilver and sell advertising space and adaptively adjusting zSilver rates. Collaborate with new games and make gamers download these games and try them for x hours to get zSilver. Collaborate with games for their games to be streamed by gamers in exchange for zSilver, viewers could also get zSilver for viewing these streams. Our passion for gaming - in terms of gameplay hours, stream views, and game advertisement, is what should be capitalized on as we actually enjoy these processes, not at the expense of wearing our GPU out and raking in

Paid to Play - What's next?

KTheoryas I like the new changes, I do not agree with the amount of Razer silver you can earn by mining or paid to play. Before paid to play you could make 900 silver in a day for playing a couple hours. Now you can only earn 100 a day with paid to play and 133 with soft-mining. (200 in total). I know there are a lot of ways getting zsilver, but many people cant even get on mogul leader boards (like me), Don't buy enough games for Razer Gold to be efficient and are not religiously on insider. With that, I think that the products you can redeem with Razer Silver should have price changes, because good luck trying to get any of the higher costing products. After reading your responses above I feel like this is now 100% focused for razer gold. Which is sad, cause I think the idea of how people who have registered razer products should be able to get more razer silver in paid to play or softmining. Hopefully this will change in the months. Some math that would put this in perspective (Pa

cxz93When i can spend Z Gold on some popular games like LOL, overwatch, CS:GO etc Depends on where you are in the world, in many regions, you can already use Razer Gold for LOL, Overwatch and CS:GO!

chickenchlorineIf zGold is the only way to earn, it's not paid to play but pay to play. Also as long as the current expiration system stands, there is a very real threat that the earnings will amount to nothing because of the forced short timespan. I'm looking at loosing thousands in just a few months. Maybe you should rethink the pricing; i'm only interested in games, not hardware - digital keys should not cost as much as peripherals. As I've mentioned, our pivot for Razer Silver is to reward those who use Razer Gold. That's the main purpose. Other means will be SECONDARY ways of earning Razer Silver. Again - if it doesn't meet your expectations, there are many others who enjoy it, so just don't participate if you don't like it - and let those who enjoy it continue to.

thehitchnoThat doesn't make sense. It seems like you're punishing the people who were trying to get into the ecosystem but couldn't afford it. And instead of say going after the abusers civilly or criminally you're letting them dictate how things will go in the future. I will guess...within 3-6 months, you'll see stupid people doing stupid things, and knowing that because you've bowed to outside pressure, will bow again. Then it'll become a case of rinse and repeat, because they know every time they do something you'll act in a manner that they know will screw over other people. Well whichever, but turning your nose up at people as potential news customers hasn't worked for any company yet, especially one that doesn't have a dominant marketshare. And actions that effect the community, are more likely to cause a wider amount of negative feedback. It's not punishing people outside the ecosystem - but rewarding the ones in our ecosystem. As simple as that.

imReqiThanks for taking the time to respond to so many posts in this thread. It's refreshing to have more of a conversation as opposed to a single post. So, thank you. Simple suggestion, but can the Insider rewards award more zSilver? Those should probably be looked at since the pay to play option is suspended. I'm newer and never took advantage of that, joining just a few months ago. I just buy all my Razer stuff and use the forums because I love the brand and enjoy it. But let's be real, it's highly unlikely all the zSilver Insider achievements in the world are going to get me a free Huntsman. I think you get what I'm saying...I like the community here, and I'm not doing it for the zSilver (well, maybe if the mug comes back). There is an opportunity to revive this Insider community with the proper incentives. We'll have different ways of earning zSilver but all free ways will have small award amounts. And yes - it's not meant for you to have all the zSilver Insider achievements to

shmekermeisterFirst things first - it's great news that you have some plans with PtP (Paid to Play in further text), because I believe that everyone will be happy with more options to score zSilver. Thank you for that! I will try to give you my opinion on each bullet you wrote: 1. I have nothing against it, but I think it defeats the initial purpose of PtP - Razer products to those who can't afford them. Yes, I know that the program was misused and that it couldn't have a future like that. But, because of that program, I came here to the Insider. And you know what happened then? I stayed here even 9 months after it has been closed, because I can discuss about many things that have or have not direct correlation with the Razer products, because of nice mods and community as a whole, and because you as the CEO of the company who visit this forum and give some inputs from time to time. This is definitely something that no other companies have nor do. What I want to say, maybe to think ab

Yes. It won't be free as it was. Don't blame me. Blame the ones who started making death threats. xonasptI think it's a little unfair for people like myself who can't really afford razer gear and want to get it for free I started gathering some zSilver in the beggining of the year with Paid to Play and when it got suspended i only could win zSilver with the daily reward and couldn't reach my goal to have razer gear, i'm waiting so much time to paid to play to return but you're saying it will not be as free as it was..

PT.SingerYou said "for those who spend on games etc with zGold and earn zSilver". That "etc" ... does this mean that there will be other ways to use zGold? Like maybe using zGold to buy Razer gear and earning zSilver for purchasing said gear? If so, then this is very exciting. I've been waiting for that announcement since the beginning of the zSystem. I'm ready to buy a Razer Phone 2 with zGold ... as soon as they release it in Australia. I can't wait to see what you actually decide to do with the program, sir. And I'm ready to grind, as well ... hopefully on a Razer Phone 2 ... bought with zGold ... from the Australian Razer Online Store. zGold can be used for virtual goods like games and digital content such as virtual items only I'm afraid as it is regulated. So it won't ever be used for hardware. Now if someday we ever released a cryptocurrency, that's a different story as it would be usable for software AND hardware. But we have no plans for this now.

What would you like to see next from Razer?

Keep those ideas coming in! We can't comment (for obvious reasons) but what I can say is that some of these ideas are actually in our roadmap right now. The one thing I truly love about what we do at Razer is that we're pretty much designing stuff for our own use - and at the same time, designing stuff for your use.
