Strength, Courage, Wisdom..which one are you? |
Advertising is a good concept., as long as it isn't placed somewhere that would make the game world seem stupid. For example, travel on another world and see alien races with Dr.Pepper cans. Seems unrealistic, But the generic £14.99 seems to be the most popular choice.
I don't think player base will be a problem as Stargate is a very popular program/movie. Therefore, people are enticed into paying for the game. And my previous comment wasn't referring to Guild Wars Hall of Heroes, it was referring to Space Cowboy Online where each area have at least 2 instances of an area. |

i think the payment should just be like Guildwar's where you only have to buy the game no monthly fee this works out well and keeps the server team updateing

Of the choices given in the poll, monthly fee is the only viable selection.
To any MMO publishers out there, please consider some alternative payment methods, as 'monthly' fees are my preferred payment method, you might interest a lot of players with a pay as you use it plan. Offer standard monthly plans ($14.95/month; discounts for 3 month; 6 month; 12 month advance payments); but also allow for metered play via online payment. The user can pre-pay for game time in 10, 25, and 50 hour blocks for $5, $10, and $20 respectively. Obviously, any hardcore player would go bankrupt paying the pre-pay prices, but these types of plans will appeal greatly to parents who want their kids to budget their limited game play time. The time would only get used while actually on the server playing. This would be nice for people who only play for 2-3 hours a week (about $10/month), and the profit margins are much higher for standard usage. |

im happy for it to cost 15$ as i live in britain and it costs around half that in pounds :P
advertising seems an ok way to go as its a semi-real world setting, also i think if its pay for it will keep the village idiots out as best as is currently possible perhaps an attitude test should be handed out along with the game code LOL |

Anyway back on the subject I am fine with a monthly fee as long as the devs keep the game content coming.
I am fine with the standard fee as long as the game keeps live. |
