Guys,
At this stage, it is still early to say what features can remain free and what can be made as pay-based. One thing's for sure, we would never compromise on the gaming experience, so you would not be able to BUY points outright. That is plain ridiculous and unfair to the good players who worked hard to get their points.
However, customization features like team kits, stadiums, logos etc. will eventually be made buyable, and you can enhance the general look and feel of your team.
To the thread starter, we appreciate your efforts in collecting different ideas, and we look forward to hearing all of them soon, so that we at team Howzat can get cracking in figuring out how to implement it in our game without compromising on anything. After all, Howzat is and will always be the people's cricket game. Just as most of the features that have been rolled out were pretty much requested by the users, we look forward to more ideas from you guys.
