what are your opinion on pay to play games?

I personally think its not worth it to pay a monthly fee to play a video game.


P2P: Gaming of the future - wm_hunter - 06-29-2006

I think it is stupid, you already gave them money for the game, if the game was solid the sales from the selling of the game should cover the server costs and still keep their pockets heavy.

i dont mind if its for a good game e.x. runescape or starwars galixys but for wow or anything its completely gay

I have absolutely no problem spending my parent's money to fuel my WoW addiction.

I really hope my kids don't turn out like you.



And I think Pay To Play is fine, if you have your OWN cash.

ORLY?

I second this. Spending other peoples money rules.


P2P: Gaming of the future - L4E - 06-30-2006

lol, your parents are either very rich, very stupid or just want as less of ur presence as possible to actually pay every month for you to play a video game

@theoneandonly do u realise u just said runescape is better than wow?? i dont mean to be rude, but WTFF????

i don't mind. If its the main thing you play and you have a lot of free time on your hands why not. I actually want to save my money and my parents aren't awesome like your so i'm sticking with free games. And it does cost money to maintain high-end servers so it makes sense. If I hadn't been playing diablo for years I would pay per month to play that if there was no hacks/bots/lag/lines/glitches. But they'd also have to actually keep up and keep adding patches etc too though.

i guess you guys didn't see the post where the guy told us you how to play WoW for free did you?

i cant ever pay for a game monthly firs thtey come out with a game make it liek 50 dollars then make a xpac with just MINOR changes and make it like 40 bucks then they make u pay 15 dollars a month? i think its bullshit i hate paying monthly thats why i dont do WoW anymore

Running servers = $$.

Complaining about fee's for playing MMOG's in which the game developer/publisher hosts the servers is absolutely redicilious. It costs a large amount of money for all the bandwidth, hosting, and server equipment required for such MMOG's as World of Warcraft or Lineage.
Another reason I appreciate the 'Pay to Play' policy is that, it is really a smacktard filter. If people are playing just to jerk around online, they are really losing money. If you've played any 'pay to play' games, you know there is alot less smacktards online.

Can't agree anymore. Enough said.

I hate paying for anything I can legitimately get for free. Lately though if I could pay some small amount to play D2 without all the recent problems I might go for it.


P2P: Gaming of the future - streetsoldier707 - 07-12-2006

**** P2P, Buying the game is enough. The companies make enough money from having the game's bought, and then when people get cd-key's stolen, or banned, people buy them again anyway's. It's just plain pointless. laugh:

I hate to pay to play which is why I don't play any current MMO's but I'll be playing LotRO when it comes out. It's pay to play. It's not that I have to pay myself but I hate spending my parent's money on stupid shit.


P2P: Gaming of the future - Dynafrom - 07-26-2006

I believe that once you pay for something, you don't need to pay anymore.

Case n point: WoW, EVE ONLINE, EQ2

Gold digging companies wanting more money.
