The price of the characters is a LOT higher than I had expected to see. Only when you buy the packs do they come down to reasonably amounts... but I don't want ALL of them. I'd only want a few. Andd with no actual playtime in yet, I see no incentive strong enough for me to pay for any fo what they're offering right now.

No way I'm "pre-ordering" a f2p game :)

From the footage I have seen, it is not bad.. for a FTP. The $20 and even the $60 does not seem too bad for what you get for it... except Deadpool, but I'm not a fan of him anyways. Packs like the Avenger is not too bad, as it appears you get the classic and movie version of the Avengers.
It does suck symbiote Spiderman is for the $200 pack, but perhaps the Starter or Premium pack is the way to go. For now.
Oh, I also read that you can craft costumes in game with drops... so you might not have to even buy the costumes with real money. |

It is dumb to release this sort of info when they havn't confirmed exactly what can and can't be obtained ingame. Bad move.

Now that is flat outright GREED! Unfortunately there will be foolish people who can't figure that out. Talk about gouging the public...

Originally posted by Elevenb4 Yeah, I was with them up until they decided against B2P and went the f2p route. As a B2P with a cosmetic and convienence cash shop I'd be all for it. As a F2P I'll pass, especially with the Starting character choices.
To play any of the characters I'd like to play I'd have to pay, or I can play for free to see if I like the game enough to spend money but I would have to do so with characters I wouldn't want to use lol... So, I will pass until they change their mind and switch to b2p or at least do a fluff/cosmetic and convienence store like Planetside 2. Before anyone decides to chime in with "You're just cheap", please not I've already sunk a good bit of money in both GW2 and PS2. I got both games up front and nothing was locked behind a pay wall (GW2 was b2p but I didn't have to unlock different playable characters and crap like that on the cash shop lol), only Fluff and convienence. I wish them luck because the game looks neat and seems to have some promise if they can convience people to play. Anyone else noticed the very scary part about these packs? These are apparently deals that will go up in price at launch lol! From 20 - 30 From 60 - 120 From 200-750 Yeah lol I don't think I will even be checking back in on the game with this business model lol. $30 for 1 character? lol... And OMG the $750 bundel did me in lol. I will most definitely pass and write this game off now lol. $750 lol... you guys have fun with that lol. |

You wont write it off since you can play for free with 5 chars. Also a dumb move imo. Too many people will do that and probably buy like one other char max before they get tired of it.

LOL. What a freaking scam.
$200 for all of the heroes? Or I assume just all of the release heroes.
$20 for a single hero and two costumes?
This money grab is 100x worse than the D3 RMAH.
Will they charge us extra to get professional quality animations?
I will try the game and can see myself playing Thing and Hawkeye, even though I'd never choose them if all heroes were available. But their pricing just means I'll have more fun unlocking stuff for free rather than rewarding them for such a lame money grab. It's clear that combat and their classes aren't as polished as D3s and so I'd expect to get at least 10 heroes of my choice for $50-60.

while i am extremely interested in this game..there is no way i am paying £140 for something i have never tried..nor any other amount for that matter.they should have offers like this on an open beta nothing less.if they believe in their product they wouldnt have a problem doing that.

Originally posted by adam_nox I most certainly will because I have no interest in the 5 free ones you are given. It also means that those 5 are going to be mostly who you run into lol. I have 0 interest in playing a Marvel game primarily populated by The Thing, Hawkeye, Daredevil, Scarlet Witch and Storm lol.
For the love of gaming they couldn't even do an actual team to start you off with lol. Just a mish mash or random less popular chars that filled specific roles.

Oh have no doubt people.. these packs will sell like hotcakes. Maybe not the Ultimate one but the others will. Heck i am tempted my self and i am pretty much against this game as it deffo kills the chance of a Marvel based MMO.
This have been a good conversation |

I asked on the face book if the packages include beta access. Due to the game wont be out till spring. And they want the money now.(our choice to do so if we choose to). How ever they responded that the first 2500 to buy the 200 dollar package get the instant access. nothing for 60 and 20 dollar tiers.

I'll probably play these characters.... Free Starting Characters:
I am tempted to buy the Avengers or the X-force pack though. If you buy the ultimate pack you will eventually get..... Post-launch Characters:
I thought THAT was funny. Where's BEAST and ICEMAN?

Yeah...i will use the free characters and then maybe consider a character pack if i have a hard time getting a character i want to drop. I'm a hardcore ARPG guy and i play 100% self found items with zero trading. So ill have no problems farming skins and characters if the drops are reasonable. Whats reasonable a character or skin drop every 30-40 hours of play on average. |

I don't think $200 for something I am getting $100 worth of ingame cash as well is that bad of a deal, so its $100 and since it is F2P, no $15/m - so if I play for 1 year it will pay itself off.

I think ill wait for the release.. unless of course i get into beta and love the game..
@Ozmodan why is it flat out greed to want to make money? that is why the company exists to make money..
You can either wait for release and unlock all characters by playing, or you can pre-order and get some extras up front..
