PS2 Subcription - £8 per month!

[Mechzz]

Just found this on the PS2 section of the SOE website:



Would you pay £8.99 per month?

I might be tempted by the 6 month option as that gives the full 50(?)% XP bonus from day 1.

Thoughts?

I'm going to buy in six month chunks as well.

[ringring]

Yep I am certainly tempted.

[Sturmhardt]

Hm, 10€/month if I buy 6 months seems fair to me. I was afraid that 15$ would translate into 15€. I'll see how it goes, I got pretty much SC waiting around and I guess I can get pretty far with that....plus the game is not where I want it to be yet, if they deliver some dreams of mine I will pay more.

[Fafnir]

Defenitely not right off the bat, but I'll consider it.

"Where are true sidegrades, these upgrade options are tame and lame"

"I still think the PS1 class system was vastly superior to the BF2 class system. Where's the freedom of the PS1 inventory/class system?"

"still really need cloaked AMS"

"how about some effective defensive CE tools, 2 lousy claymores that only work 15% of the time aint gonna cut it"

"Rocketpods need a massive nerf"

"What the fuck did you do to AA?"

"still CTD'ing on the last day of BETA"

"OS=lame, why would you even consider bringing it back"

how about no.

sweet, they said they weren't doing discounts for multiple months

BTW how did you change currency type in your account settings? I'm unable to switch mine from US dollars to euro.

I'm in the UK so my credit card is in British pounds.

I also noticed they've reduced PS1 to £7.49 per month - it was still £15 when I last resubbed in March. Still, going F2P soon, so not such an issue.

I notice on the next page it says this:

If you buy this Game Pass, you will be automatically charged $71.94 (plus applicable taxes) every 6 months until you cancel. You can cancel by logging into your SOE account and selecting “Game Pass Info” then “Cancel;” if you do that, your Game Pass will be cancelled at the end of the period in which you cancel your account, but nothing will be refunded to you.

That means you can cancel immediately and still keep your 6 month membership right? It almost sounds like you can't cancel until the last day of your membership or you lose it with no refund.

Nah, you can cancel as soon as you have successfully subscribed. You still get your 6 months.

PS1 was my first ever MMO and I didn't realise they set up an auto-renew. That's why I played for 6 months rather than 3!

It should be since they'll still have your money for that period even if you cancelled the day after you purchased.

If you pay for six months and cancel right away, you'll have your six months you have paid. The membership will stop at the end of the period you have chosen.

I'm sure they want to make a whole lot of cash with this game, but SOE aren't thieves. :P

[Harrod]

Reads to me that it'll cancel the recurring purchase, but you'll keep your access until the end of the current billing period.

[Beerbeer]

Actually, I may go a few days as a total FTP just to see the differences.
