GameNet has finaly revealed prices for Early Access to RU OBT.

I will translate the price in to Euro, and what they give.

First package 6 Euro:
  • Key to CBT ( 15-22 September )
  • Early Access to OBT - 4 days
  • Subscription - 7 days.
  • Improved account ( It's a special only GameNet feature)  - 30 days
  • Number of characters - 3
Second package 12 Euro:
  • Key to CBT ( 15-22 September )
  • Early Access to OBT - 7 days
  • Subscription - 30 days.
  • Improved account ( It's a special only GameNet feature)  - 30 days
  • Number of characters - 4
  • Unique Weapon Skin
  • A pack of Dyes
  • Set of tools.

Third Package 30 Euro:
This package has 2 set of bonuses, one for F2P server, another for P2P server.
For F2P:
  • Key to CBT ( 15-22 September )
  • Early Access to OBT - 7 days
  • Subscription - 30 days.
  • Improved account ( It's a special only GameNet feature)  - 30 days
  • Number of characters - 5
  • Unique Weapon Skin
  • A pack of Dyes
  • Set of tools.
  • Lvl 2 Horse + something for this mount.
For P2P:
  • Unlimited access to the server ( Just like Gw2, you pay once, you play forever)
  • Includes Subscription bonuses ( They are a bit different from Korean once, i will list them below )
  • Early access to OBT - 7 days.
  • Number of characters - 5
  • A pack of Dyes
  • Unique Weapon Skin
Gamenet says that once OBT begins ( Around October/November ) - 30 Euro package will be removed, and players would have to pay Subscription fee ( 6 Euros in RU) to get access to P2P server.

Subsciption Bonuses:
  • 20% XP bonus for killing NPC's
  • 20% XP Crafting bonus
  • 20% XP  Skill bonus
  • 20% XP Horse Bonus
  • Luck +1
  • Shorter times for fixing your Karma.

That's it.





P.S: A RU Community manager said that: There will be no cash shop in CBT in september.

    Another thing: a lot of Russian players were surprised about how low the prices were, especially for P2P Server.

    Another note was posted by Russian Community manager about the difference between F2P and P2P Shops:

    In P2P server, you can buy animals and  costumes for in-game currency, while other more unique Costumes will be  sold for Real money in a Cash shop. She also said a more detailed cash shop items will be posted in September.

    Those 20% bonuses seem a bit excessive. 

    Countdown till P2W claims begin to surface.

    The prices are low for founders pack, amazing :) top one all the way

    Those 20% bonuses seem a bit excessive. 

    Countdown till P2W claims begin to surface.

    All F2P optional subscription bonues have XP, Rep and Gold boost rates. Sometimes 100% boosted.

    This is convenience, the P2W claims are void.

    on Korea bonuses are all 30%, including
    • 30% tax pay back from Auction.
    • personal weight +100LT ( stacks with other buffs)
    • +16 Inventory space

    In RU they went with the light versions it seems, and with out tax pay back.

    P.S: Ru Community manager added that Auction Tax % on P2P servers will be 20%  lower, than on F2P servers. F2P server players can lower that tax % by buying a special item ( didn't say where from).

    Just to be clear, I don't particularly care for XP bonuses and the sort.  As a general practice I like to take my time getting to end game and have never used an XP potion or bonus.  As a matter of fact, I've actually purposely avoided subscribing to games because the subscription packages offered XP bonuses that could not be turned off (LOTRO).  The crafting, skill, horse, and luck bonuses, however, are a whole 'nother thing altogether.  I will gladly accept those.

    Im not sure if you were calling that P2W, or you were referencing other people's opinions on it. Im confused.

    But subscribing to get these XP/Gold bonuses, does not make any game P2W.

    In korea they have started selling "limited edition pc bang pack". These are for "pc bang" which are internet cafe that rents pc only for online gaming. Apparently if someone is playing BD from a PC Bang they can buy this exclusive packs which contains 100% gear upgrade chance items among other, daum has replied that it is a special one time pack but still the speculation is that those items will soon make it to original version.

    Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.

    Will NA/EU get a P2P server?

    This game is a themepark now last I checked. Shame
    Now Playing: Bless / Summoners War
    Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile

    At least it's not something hilarious like 100+ euros for the big package with €20+ being the low-end.

    Though I guess it's likely that the prices for the early-access in Europe / NA will actually inflate to those levels.

    Feel free to use my referral link for SW:TOR if you want to test out the game. You'll get some special unlocks!
