    OK OK 

     

    ONCE MORE !!!

     

    Hey new guys PLZ read my previous post about WHY, P2P is SAME as  P2Win !!! when you compare Rich player with poor players,

    Different player family realities and currency exchange on different countries.

     

    I'm not saying that game should run as F2P, B2P, Cry4Play,  etc....   What I'm just asking is to try understand in deep what's going on in all player situations before say  "I'm ok on paying subscription so all other potential players should be ok with it to!"    Everything that is OK for other ppl is ok for you to ?

     

    Just try to think that this is an international game that intent to have a server with thousand of players from all corners of the Earth ( O ?)

    With Players that live very different real lives, so before say P2P is the best or B2P is the best, or F2P is the best. 

     

    Understand that "The best" would be a Mix of those all ! and a Very well done administration of the game business.

    I already saw great game servers Die because of bad administration and very P2W games achieve thousand of players that happly spend tones of money on garbage games and companies get rich just because they have a great management.

     

    Also i'm sad to say for those (already existent) DU fanboys, This is not the best game in the world, this is not even a game yet, Its a few guys dream with a great potential, but with a lot of concurrence to, especially if they decide to keep as P2P, because P2P players rarely play more than one game at once, 

    and just look around for other upcoming games and you will see that DU will have to face great rivals.

     

    Btw, Guys, use your brains not your harts, give the Devs ideas of how to make this game as great as it could be,

    not just say "nice game i can play 15 bucks for that"

     

    I think this will be my last post, on monetization topics.

     

    bye

    No offence but you completley disregard inflation, prize inflation and sallary inflation

    I doubt we we will see many kids in this game though, I expect most serious orgs are going to require their members to be at least 18+ and if we look at eve online, which in my mind has the same target audience, that game has a average age of around 30.

    i dislike set age limits, if there is a 16 year old that behaves just as mature as your average 18+ he/she should still be allowed to join the faction

     

    the true criteria should be behaving mature not beeing adult

    UK (British) player .....:   $ 13.25 EUR  (Ah that's OK,  not real expensive I like the game and I can afford for it)

    CA (Canadian) ...........:  $ 37.48 CAD  (Well if its just I playing its OK, sadly i think it will become hard to pay 2 subs, for me and my son)

    BR (Brazilian)Player....:  $ 48.22 BRL  (PQP its half hundred! I love the game but Idk if i can maintain and so idk if worth to join this game)

    SA (South African)......:  $ 202.54 ZAR (OMG ! i love game but impossible to pay monthly, even I can afford to buy items some times)

     

    P2P is a huge pay-wall for families with more than one player, teens that need parents to pay, low budget college students, etc ...

    1 EUR =/= 1 ZAR

    also as a teen i can tell you, its not hard at all to raise 13,25 Eur a month

    i currently get around 80 a month for 8 hours of newspaper carrying per month, thats a bit less than 1 1/2 hours per month to play the game further more newspaper salary varies depending on the amount of ads meaning i often get over 100 Eur

     

    teens should be over 14 to play this game anyways (you know behaving mature etc.) and its not hard to find a part time job paying over 30 per month

     

    Apply inflation to that and you get around the same result for probably every currency you mentioned
