@snjor @jens5301 @famouswolfe @xyrianne It sure ain't nice of them, ain't denying that. And I know what your wanting to say here, there ain't many MMORPG's that have a "correct F2P model" I think Guild Wars 2 handled it decently but there aren't any others I can really think of.

Although I stated that F2P makes it better, it was ment in terms of a larger community and if it's handled well then the long term players will not notice the effects.

However it can easily go wrong and make the game total crap, this is something that wouldn't easily happen with the sub fee model.

I guess we all do favor the sub fee model here, it's the most stable and honest model.

(Even me although I did comment in favor of the F2P model but this is assuming it is handled correctly without giving anyone the advantage, if handled wrongly like in most games then I am totally against it!)

If it goes F2P the people who payed subscriptions and pre-ordered should be the ones that are given advantages...

@famouswolfe @xyrianne If executed correctly a F2P model will make the game better, remember they get money out of the initial purchase of the game too!

I think the model wouldn't be any worse than that in GW2 maybe even less worse.

Besides the ones playing now will have access to the end game gear long before it becomes a problem to them (assuming they play a lot) we're looking at something that could happen in a few years.

Also right now a subscription model will allow them to get more money out of the game and "kickstart" it so they can expand on the concept rather quickly.
