Flagship Ripping people off

    I was going to Troll this Board, but instead Ill share my thoughts.  Ten dollars is alot.  And if other game starts to charge fee to play online, that ten dollars can increase to fifty dollars or even hundered dollars, depending how many game you play.  With the new release of Team Fortress 2, what if valve charges ten dollars a month.  Aw you got a choose to play for free, but you can only play X amount of maps, and only X amount of class.  You have to be a  member to get all the content.  Then what about Starcraft 2?  What if Blizzard decieded to go the same route?  Then soon you see all mulitplayer games charging a fee to just play online.

    Im all for Flagship making money off new content.  Hey if they wanted to add new level and charge 30 dollars for it, then hey Im for that.  If they want to add PvP content and charge money, that fine too.  But I do have a problem of Flagship charging monthly fee to just get more charactor slots, or play hardcore mode, or content that was all ready release when the game came out.  Seriously do people who think monthly fee is a good Ideal, think that Flagship well make expansion and charge money for that aswell?

    when I first read this topic I thought Flagship was stealing money from people

    come to find out, the OP is just bitching because Flagship charges for additional content

    you really need to change your topic

    I played the beta, and I do like the game. I can't say I was too please to hear at the last minute what non subscribers were getting compared to subscribers but I wouldn't go as far as to say <OP " since this game is a step down from hello kitty adventure: retard edition. " > Its got some nice graphics really cool mobs ( starting at level 15+ ) and a lot more things to keep busy ( weapon mods, pvp, and 50 levels ). But I agree they should give a little more to no subscribers such as participation on the holiday events. I will propably pay the 150$ to play for the next 2 yrs. But remeber when you buy this game your not buy Diablo, just like if you bought  UT your not buying Battlefield even though they are both FPS. Its a different game and story and paying 10$ is optional. Your actually buying a single player campaign with a nice story but with an option for online play.

    I wanted to play Hellgate - because i need a CASUAL online rpg.
    If i pay subscription fees - i feel COMPELED to play - if i pay monthly subscription and i play a game only 2-3 times a month , i cancel the sub. This is why i liked GW , i never felt compeled to play and i still play it , if i feel like it.
     
    But FS/EA went out their way to makeplaying Hellgate online withouth subscription useless even for super casual players ...
    I mean forcing non sub players to play it only on easy mode ?
    This will automatically bar you from joining any group ... let alone make the game totaly boring...
     
    Oh well
    I really do not know what to say. I will wait for release, and than wait for first experiences from non-sub players, and than i will decide if its worth it ...
     
     
     
     
     

    Just 1 thing. You say that it will be "easy mode", but, it wouldnt, it will be "NORMAL" mode. Cause the hardcore mode you will have only 1 live, and you can join guilds, not create them, not manage them, but, if you are super-casual, its ok, isnt? also, you will have acces to skills and all the content not but, some events and some "extra" things, but this dont means they force you.

     

    So its not a "normal version" for people who pay, and a "limited version" for the ones that dont do it. Really is a "normal version" for the people that pay for the game but not fee, and extra version, like if you paying for expansion, for subs.
