Judging by his "Improve Indoor Fighting" section the author wasn't very good at the game. There is defiantly things that could be done to make indoor fighting better, but what he describes is mainly user error.
The rest is just what a lot of us have been saying since 2004 to fix the original PS. Fix lag (ADADAD warping), better balancing, don't sell power in the store, actually market the game unlike PS1. |

My concerns are also the F2P and the marketing. I think they will market it much better this time and hopefully it will be enough to spread. But the F2P model still worries me. There is so much that can go wrong with F2P, just have to wait until they release the details

F2P is needed for sustained pops. I am all for that. No reason to have this game die just a few years after launch like PS did due to only having a sub.

There was multiple reasons for the game dying out. Among the major ones being BFRs, but I still think the sub was the final nail in the coffin. How many FPSes do you know of requires a sub? Next to none as far as I know. I cannot tell you how many gamers I know refused to even try PS due to the monthly sub. If SOE can do F2P and get most people to spend a few bucks here and there on the game it will be far more successful then the original in terms of pop and revenue. Hence why they are doing this.

BFRs and balancing issues. And not listening to the community about such things right away.
F2P should defiantly sustain big populations for longer periods of time. No reason not to try this model out. A lot of bigger name gaming companies are fitting proper models to work for them now. |

my major worry with f2p is hacking
I will add for all these people that keep quoting "other fps games dont require a sub" firstly they are not MMO and secondly who do you think pays for the servers that you play on? Last edited by Mastachief; 2011-09-10 at 03:51 PM. |

I also read in another article that Vivox is integrated, and I would have to individually mute people. Since this game is going F2P, I forsee one of my biggest annoyances are the whining and crying 8 year olds that begged their mom to buy the game for them. I hope the voice chat in-game is removed. (Not TS3, vent, etc. ofc)

Integrated voice chat is key to getting teamwork going in pickup groups. The lack of people having microphones is a bigger problem than mic spam. Last edited by nathanebht; 2011-09-11 at 12:35 AM. |

Pretty sure there will be a way to disable it altogether. I haven't read much into this system. Is it something like everyone with in X distance can hear you or is it meant for squad/platoon setups? Either way I do not plan on using it most likely. With the wide spread use of TS3, Vent, and Mumble by Outfits I think it is a waste of development time.
