I'm waiting on the digital download, hopefully its more reasonably priced.



     

    I [played WoW,WAR, LOTRO and Vanguard all £8.99 a month, i pre ordered Aion and get beta access for no extra cost, monthly fee £8.99 but MO will be £12.25 at todays prices. how can they justify the extra?

     

     

    makeing it very simpel to you 1 year ago your money was worth almost 50% more than a euro today they are almost equal welcom to ecomoics 101



     

    The price they are chrging is nothing to do with currency conversion. Its working out more for the euro zone also.



     

    No , its not , stop splurting bullshit , i subscribe WoW , i subscribed Vanguard , EQ2 , Eve , etc , and i paid 14.X euros for all of them.



     

    My mistake, i just checked on Aion which is 12.99 euro.  Maybe next time you can point something out with out taking a fit.



     

    Several others pointed out your mistake quite politely , yet you choosed to ignore them and keep on going with your little rant , people like you and the OP are what is fundamentaly wrong with society today.

    WoW is 12.99 euros, not 14.x. You should double check your credit card statement.

    And if you think that people who wont agree with you are whats wrong with society, then you should go out more.

    Its 12.99 because we are not paying IVA on our digital purchases due to a mess up from our government , the prices on continental europe with VAT applied are higher .

  • The_KorriganThe_Korrigan Member RarePosts: 3,460

    One month in WoW in Europe is 12.99 Euros. Including VAT.

    It's still cheaper than buying 1 console game per month, which is not expensive if you have a job.

  • The_KorriganThe_Korrigan Member RarePosts: 3,460

    There is one VERY important detail those who complain about the monthly fee have possibly overseen too...

    I quote:

    "The monthly subscription cost includes all future updates and expansions for Mortal Online. No additional costs will be charged for future expansions."

    There will never be paying expansions, like e.g. Burning Crusade or WotLK. The price of the MO expansions is included in the monthly fee. So at the end, it's not that bad.

    I can read the profiles , you are from Portugal and the other guy from France , yet you dont know that you are not paying any VAT on Wow , wich is rather fantastic to even realize . Just for any of you still doubting any other prices , go make a SOE account and try to subscribe to any game in there ( Vanguard is part of those btw ... ) ... for the ones not wanting to do that , its 13.49 euros + taxes , i leave it to you to find WHY you pay taxes on that one and not on a product from blizzard with HQ on Paris and just on some of the countries on the EU .

    The problem with their pricings are that the game is far from being a decent game. It's still at a very early stage in beta, and they're an entirely new company. Why does their game cost MORE than all other games out there, both initially and monthly?

    SOE do it a bit differently, for UK for instance it will show the Euro value but then states that all regions have static local currency costs (which in most cases are the same).

    Starvault has said themselves wich features are currently in the game, so there is no NDA breaking.

    Exactly, and if you've read the MO-Radio interview, even though all features are not in yet, the list of already available ones is pretty impressive... if they haven't lied like the darkfail devs have, the game is already more complete than darkfall today.

    Now if course, they can have lied to make people buy, that has been seen way to often in the past... we will know soon anyway, with that huge amount of testers I think some leaks are inevitable.

    If you go to the MO store and read at the bottom of the page, you can see what people will be testing the 20th when the Block A guys gets into the beta. If you look at that list, it seems that Starvault hasn't even tested anything at all themselves.

    As a Canadian customer I was a bit in shock when I saw the price I had to pay for this game.

    I mean, 75$US then the exchange rate would make it around 84$. Add the pricey shipping and you end up with almost a 100$ game and you're not done, there's a crazy close to 20$ monthly fee!!!

    That's simply absurd and way overpriced.

    Yeah I know, seems like they activate things slowly, at least they are honest about it, unlike DFO devs which pretended their game was the next coming of jesus only to make us discover not even half the promised stuff was really in the game.

    I'm still excited at reading reviews of those things that will be tested, notably the crafting and resource gathering. I hope they made resource gathering fun, and not the boring "watch a stone or a tree or a bush for ages" crap we had in DFO. I'm also very interested at how skill gains work, they pretend they avoided the DFO trap where all people were macroing, I want to hear about that.

    While not telling anything about what the final (released Q4 2009) game will be, this will be a very good indicator at how the MO devs want to manage their game, and if they avoided the errors of past games.

    Well the standard UK MMO monthly fee is £8.99 and MO comes to about £12/13, thats a third more expensive than the standard fee. Fees are already high enough

    I still have high hopes and a very expensive box wont mean that the game is not gonna make it in the end, but im not willing to fork out more than 40 pounds to help these guys, it is also non refundable, and I would get for 80 pounds or the "cheaper" 65 pounds is their word that the game is solid.
    I will however wait for the digital download if its within what im willing to pay.

     

    Then why the hell did you reserve a preorder of the game, especially the full loot (999 limited copies) when your not going to even buy it? Someone else would of gladly bought it, but they can't because of you.

    Remember the fee includes all future expansions... so you won't be giving 39 euros for the MO version of WotLK ;)

    I really think you guys are being dense on purpose , 2 years ago , 8.99 pounds was around 14 euros , today  , 8.99 pounds = 10 euros . See the difference?

    "I agree 100%. Total cost for any guy in the EU for the normal boxed version will be 90.69 euros.

    1 box (68.69 EUROS) + shipping (7 EUROS) + 1 month (15 EUROS) = 90.69 euros in total.

    That's twice the ammount of a normal MMO. And this game is still in very early beta."

     

     

    Ouh , and looking at your post history , you are not only  a fanboy , but an idiot while at it , the box price includes a free month like every other MMO .
