Not even sure id be even using it.
What id pay for, is PS2 mobile security key app.

I'd want to see it finished first to be able to see everything its able to do but from what we've been shown of it so far it does look like it would be a cool app to have.
As for cost it can't be free, we are lucky enough that PS2 is going to be free and they have to make money to pay for game, optional extra things like camo, this app and other things must have a cost to fund the game, so if it was in the area of say $5 I'd be happy to pay for it.

LoLz the game is absolutely free...but the awesome integrated app costs 59.99...

[Pyreal]

I ain't gonna spend the money on an iPhone nor some silly app.

[Destroyeron]

Nope

[Jeepo]

Don't mind dropping a few £ on a sexy app for my new Nexus 7!...

Voice chat. Hell, text chat. The rumored guided drone/missile/artillery/orbital strikes.

I'm working on the assumption that Sony realizes that allowing 3rd party developers to facilitate connecting to your own game account as part of their external APIs is just begging for account theft and such. Therefore, anything that requires you to be you rather than just an observer of the game state from the internet will have to be exclusive to their app in order to protect the player from malicious apps.

For the features we've heard about/seen and the rumored drone thing, anything less than $5 would be a no-brainer. If there are more awesome features (particularly if they're game-interactive, rather than simply data viewing), that could easily be pushed up to ~$10.

I dont use such a Device, but i would be happy with a PC port for my Second Monitor for the Live Map !And Yeas I would Buy that, as it seems now i voted for NO Payment.

I would perfer it to be free to promote the community to others that I see outside my home providing free advertising to SOE, but would pay up to $5.00 just to check in on my Outfit when I can't get online.

What does it even do?

People are getting me scarred with hints that it does things you can't do without it which sounds ridiculous. I will NEVER get an Ipad, or any of those things, so I couldn't even get it if I wanted to. The concept of an advantage through an ipad application is completely ridiculous.

So tell me it isn't so?

Free to play game.... with a pay to play app... lolwut

I love the idea of the app- but it is just icing on the cake that is Planetside 2.

[Crator]

^^^ It doesn't prevent you from playing the game. Just gives you extra features, outside of the game, to interact with the game... It's an add-on.... I don't see why they shouldn't charge a small fee for it...

I agree with this.

I think it should have a basic free version and a paid version with extra features. What those extra features would be i'm not sure, as i don't know all the things the app does.

To me, charging for interesting but not vital things (VoIP) is a good move, but charging for very basic (outfit info) or very useful (drone strike) stuff is not. Selling the most simple info is just cheap and selling power is just wrong.
