will you spend money on boosters - Page 2

I will be strategically choosing my boosters. IIRC they were going to fit into implant slots at the expense of something else. Maybe that's been changed since I heard it, but that idea was kicked around a couple months ago.

The current iteration has an implant spot specifically for boosters. The choice then becomes which booster to choose for that slot.

Most likely this, it feels like I was the only one who played without boost past Tier2 in WoT(World of Tanks). I actually got to Tiger I without paying a single cent, though getting to Tiger II without boost was impossible.

So as long as PS2 isn't as bad as WoT I most likely wont pay for any boosters. Leaves more moneh for badass zebra skins and decals!

Yup, most likely will.... I already get Station Cash every month for having an All Access pass. Think they started giving it to all F2P game accounts they have a couple months ago. (i.e. DCUO)

why? for me its like buying planetside 2 for 50€ !

You do realise the game is free to play, but not free to get you will still have to buy the game which may very well not be far off that 50€ mark.

Hum what? You won't have to buy the game since it's free to play, they gain money with micro-transactions.

Actually, the game will be entirely free to play, you won't need to buy it because if you did , then it wouldn't exactly be FREE, would it?

No.

Short answer, but I am just being realistic given my history with other F2P games. I buy stuff, not XP.

Rabaan · 2012-07-04, 03:49 PM

Since i'm only really able to play games once or twice a week, I'll Probably buy exp boosters. and cosmetic items

Azovyr · 2012-07-04, 03:55 PM

My golden rule with F2P games is only buy things that give a permanent benefit, everything else is off limits. Playing the coin-op game is a slippery slope.

Crator · 2012-07-04, 06:00 PM

They said the progression system was EvE-like, unless that's changed.... That type of system will break you to purchase boosters!

That really surprises me, never thought the actuall game would be free, just free to play once purchased.

And I have looked around while I can't find anywhere that's says you would get the game free, same time none say you have to pay for it, one think I did notice was the dev's always say free to play, which does mean free to get.

Free-to-Play definition: Free-to-play (F2P) refers to any video game or social or mobile application that has the option of allowing its players/users to play/download without paying.
