"Tiered" Hypermode?

People use HM to hunt for specials, with the "lite-mode" they're removing those features for the fluff features. Also them changing the EXP boost to 20% like they want, means you would have to even click more to hatch 1 party. I suggested a change to the lite mode they offered up because it's still not really worth buying if I can't even have my full hatching boosts

38 to 39 is a 1.5x modifier 39 to 40 is a further 2x modifier Currently the only upgrade is Hypermode, giving 38 to 40 for a single 3x modifier.

thats exactly why i fully support the 39 idea. because if people truly want to invest in (and hunt for the chance of getting back + more to buy a new normal hyper mode) normal hyper mode, they will pay the expense to do so. i think light is a good middle -point, because it exactly is what its supposed to be. a "light" version. not a "heavy" version, but a "light" version. i actually think you get alot of boons for just that small amnont of ZC. so it is extremly well though out imo. and makes for a great "lighter version" of HM.

I'd be in support of a HM that has none of the perks (less adopts, no GP, no seals or like 1 seal, longer release times) but still has the 40 chain as others have said. Full HM is most likely not gonna be affordable for me every month, a cheaper option could fill that gap and keep me playing and paying as I probably wouldn't without. But if the lower tiered HM was so nerfed for hunting that it's not helpful then it doesn't feel much different than playing F2P really EDIT: 39 looks like it would work OK too

The lite as currently proposed defeats the entire point of buying HM for me I would pay for just the 40 chain boost. If that's not included in lite, I wouldn't buy. I can't afford the non-lite hypermode So I'd probably just leave again if the chain boost was taken away. Unless it somehow didn't affect melan chances at all :/

I cannot THIS enough. If keeping the full 40 chain on the lite mode is leading to thoughts that people might not buy the 'full' mode then the additional things are not worth the ZC being spent. All the extra stuff outside the 40 chain is fluff to most people. At the very, bare minimum the lite mode should have this, not a cut down 39 chain.

To clarify my particular response to the poll: I voted 'I buy and would continue to buy full HM', but in reality there's a chance I'd go to HM-Lite (if implemented) for months when I'm not likely to be as active as I usually am, or when my funds are particularly low.

Only care about the special rate, not gonna pay 40% extra for useless fluff. I'd happily pay the old price for just the (full) shiny boost, but otherwise I'll probably just stop buying it.

those are my thoughts as well on that

I would definitely support this lite mode. It would provide a great start to the game and allow new users easier access to hypermode. If users are spending double the amount of ZC then they should get double the chance of shinies.
