    Monthly fees keep the majority of the immature prepubescent kiddies away. Keeping them is a good thing imo.

    youve played WoW, right? that is in no way true. parents will give their kids anything that make them happy especially in America. more kids now are so spoiled they cant even read a price tag by the age of 10, they just want it.

    the best way to keep the kiddies away is by loading the game with mature content that mommy doesnt approve of and then slapping a, very small, monthly fee only payable by credit card. now that would keep our favorite 12 year olds away.

  • i think MMOs should follow Hellgate's model. the online is free with an optional monthly charge which is only $10. with the monthly charge you get constant content and quest updates and sometimes full on expansions. i dont mind paying for an MMO as long as i dont feel my money is wasted. which, so far, it feels that way. i dont plan on paying for Hellgate until i reach the level cap and can enjoy the extra content, also when i have time.  when i played WoW i felt like i was wasting my money. i never saw any of the new crap they added, patches were only to tweak or nerf classes, and a $50 expansions was in no way worth it.

    i think they should keep the subscription, just make it optional. i dont have time to be playing $10-$15 worth a month but id still like to enjoy the game.

  • this is the reason i never buy an MMO until 3-6 months after release. by that time a large majority of the bugs are taken care of and people are able to talk about their impressions and end-game content first hand. personally, i think its dumb to have to pay for an open beta. i almost reserved it at best buy until i looked at the back and they were asking for credit card numbers and what not before even being able to log into the game.

  • i play it in a 3rd person view because i like to see all the carnage going on around me. especially when i use my little grenade launcher and automatic pistol. ssoo cool looking lol. also the UI makes the first person view seem a bit cluttered.

    one more thing that i dont like that much is how much of a benefit subscribing is lol. originally it was totally free but now its got an optional $10 monthly fee. which isnt BAD just not cool. id like it more if non-subscribers could get the map/level and monster updates but maybe not the weapons and armor. something like that would be fair to me. whatever, im still playing it and love it lol
