Sorry for the block of text above. On the iPad it was nicely laid out. *sigh*

Background: Tribes 1 Clan Flag-capper. Tribes 2 casual player. Been playing the Beta and loving the fact that I am back in Tribes. Much of the same magic is there. The Spinfusor weapon plus trajectory movement is a perfect match. Skiing works but …

Ah, I see. This ia actually an interesting situation. I agree with you. The "Western" (in quotes because I am calling it that although that is likely not quite accurate) F2Ps mostly put content behind paywalls. It's something I don't care fo…

Originally posted by Creslin321 For example, I wouldn't have an issue with a microtransaction game that just charged you slightly more than a B2P game would cost to unlock all the content (along with other restrictions like no P2W). Like if it…

To the original poster: You're way off base. It's no scam. I have played F2P's exclusively for about two years. I'm not mortgaging my house for any of them. I've spent a TOTAL of $60 in two years on F2Ps. [Mod Edit] It's just a different w…

Been interesting following this thread. I beta'd this game, liked it but burned out on the grinding. My hope is that once the market saturation of F2Ps tops out we will start to see the better games and games companies shine through.

Another New Player question: The maps I've seen so far are pathways, not open zones. Is that just the newbie areas or is the entire game pathway'd like that? The gameworld is so stunning I would love to be able to meander from the path!

On sale for $5 from Trion with subscription discounts.

I enjoyed Dark Age of Camelots Realm Keeps/Relics and their effect on the gameworld. The Darkness Falls (DF) Dungeons were, in my opinion, the best feature ever added to a PvP game. Only the Realm with the most keeps had the entrance unlocke…

One of the things I love about it is the variety of stuff to do. Little mini-games, some instanced like the hedge mazes. And lots of weird ones like the shrimp/crab battle. The pet/mount system is pretty simple but challenging. It has multi-…

Zentia! Actually quite a good game.

And as far as charging for stuff like speed spells, health pots and bag space I am glad to pay for those things to fund the game. They will NEVER come close to being a subscription amount. In fact, the last game I used the cash shop for I bought $…

I wouldn't be surprised if the number they lost is actually bigger than the next top-subscribing MMO currently has.

No. A company can LISTEN to their community but should not drive their game design by them. You get a big enough of a community voting and every game will turn into one another. A game company/producer needs to have a vision and stick to it.

The Open Beta is in progress. Played for an hour or so today. No idea about PVP though.

There are about to be many more Cornelius McGarnickles! Brilliant!

Finally a reason to make a fake Facebook account for gaming! I've been wanting a reason!

A recent F2P I played had a story early on where you went searching for a young man's fiance only to find her ghost where she had died. This story was presented with very little text and a series of very dramatic locations and characters. The ov…
