    Absolutely ridiculous...

    Well, apparently, they only spent $81 million on two zones. lol

    As for how?

    Anybody wanna wager on how many new houses and cars were bought by the guys in charge of RT?

     And yachts, and swiss bank accounts, a caribbean vacations

    Some people sure can scam the system. WOW, jsut WOW!!

    Well, see, it doesn't even have to be a "scam".

    Even the best people's good jusgement falls out a window when you throw millions in their lap.

    "Hey, let's spend millions on some lavish shit for our booth at E3 ( or wherever elseit was they promoted )! Gotta show we're serious!".

    "Hey, we've worked hard! We deserve a little reward! Let's buy some nice cars for ourselves, maybe get the ol' ladies something nice.".

    "Man, with this salary, I can finally buy my first house!".

    And then reality hits later when they have only two zones, people are quitting because there's nothing to do outside of the same two zones, or because hacking is rampant because the guys at RT weren't as diligent about security features as they should have been. And the money is just about gone.

    What to do now?

    I feel sorry for the guy RTW made into a human avatar. Now he gets to be a RL poster-boy for Fail.

    I'm quite positive the content above was not over a night job. Regardless devs who try to silence negative speeches related to the concern on the forums and stating it's all rumors that we shouldn't believe, could mean exactly the opposite -- after all, they're just doing what the word from upstairs tell them to.

    APB had potential - a lot - but poor payment model combined with the repetitiveness gameplaywise and lack of decent content ruined it. At one point after I've got kind of burnt out on APB I thought "it's np, i'll just sit back, take some time off and wait for new content after seeing how active devs it has" but this might not be the case no more.

    Three and six month payment options have been removed from the RTW shop. For those who barely have a clue; RTW Shop is used to purchase more RTW Points, which then can be used for buying more action gametime. Only 20 Hours Gametime and 30 Days Gametime options are left.

    Funny thing is, they removed these options just today, not long after these rumors began to spread around the internet.

    None of that matters if RTW can't fix their ridiculous business model and all of the hack exploits. Adding a cowboy hat to the game does not make it worth a sub. 

    *By the way, it's "affected", not "effected".

    That's nice.

    Wanna tell me which of those things is aimed at a 3rd person shooter driving game? Looks like an addon pack for Barbie Adventures.
