Just to put things into prospective, VCO is a free play game to a point. How much players are spending per month does vary a lot.  Accepting that in the beginning Players will pay nothing, but in the end as the months roll by the costs to upgrade your waepons etc comes from your RL wallet and could translate into a monthly cost. So, since this is a major sticking point between VCO or BBO, perhaps I could ask all regular VCO players to work out what they are spending per month on VCO and enter in the poll I have here?

   I play VCO since april/2007 and have spent, so far, U$ 200 for me and my wifes´s account, which means we spend about U$ 10/month each.

  And we have high level chars, supporting chars, etc.

 This talk that you spend more in IM than with a monthly fee seems very void for me.

5 per mounth

Is " too much " a good answer ?

$50 a month? holy mack...what do you need to be strong for? I've played a little, just started, but what's gotta be paid for to enjoy the game, and secondly what do you have to be strong for and against to enjoy the breadth of the game?
