AAA++++!!! WOULD BUY AGAIN!!!

So Evil Trout just announced the cost of Episode 2 in a very long, but also very interesting blog post. Turns out it’s gonna be 7BP. I think it’s a fair price and it really doesn’t surprise me too much. What do you think?

MC Banhammer here, editing your post so people have YET ANOTHER ****ING PLACE to read this question which keeps getting asked and answered over and over again.

Episode 2 has:

– 20+ new forums

– Tons of new characters to interact with

– New items

– Totally new ways to play

– Much longer than episode one

– All characters attached to your account will gain entry

– This is a one time fee, not monthly or anything like that.

NOTE: The new level cap (and therefore character abilities) are free, hacker clbum is free (bumuming you have an account to play him on), job board is free, a new + big unannounced gameplay feature is free.

Also, the beginning hour (or more) of Episode 2 is free.

What you get for your 10 bucks: new stores, new forums, new characters and storyline.

The new stores are the biggest hurdle for a non-paying account to remain competitive with a paying one, since the paying one will have access to newer equipment.

MOOOOOS ARE BELOW ME

Yes, I think it’s fair. I initially said I thought between $15 to $20 to be a fair price.

However, I still stand by my statement that those whom have already invested a certain amount of money into the game should be rewarded with a discount.

But in the end I know I’m going to end up paying for it, discount or not.

Ep 1 content, the new hacker clbum, and the new Job board will be available for free. So you’re getting a lot of new content even if you don’t pay up. But read the blog, it has a ton more info (also IANET)

And I’ve edited the OP here to spell out all the details again.

And someone should wikify that information.

that kind of money is nothing to me, the question for me is how to GET the money to you guys..and yeah ive looked at the wiki on different options on how to do it..i wish you guys accepted mo’s and stuff like that, almost the only way to pay in is through paypal, unless i want to go to toronto and buy you guys a beer, which wouldnt be terribly cost-effective

Ten dollars is nothing to pretty much anyone. It’s just that, like you said, it can be tough getting money to people on the internets.

Even *I* have $10, just no way to get it to Crotch Zombie. I mean I could like drive down to Mexico or wherever the **** you guys are, but I don’t have a car.

Paypal works with either cc’s or bank accounts – do you not have either? Maybe I’ll give some bp out when the game release rolls around, I dunno. It would kind of suck to have stuck around all this time and then not be able to play.

yeah im a hippie living in a tent in the woods basically, no cc (god i hate those) and no account for a long time, i never saw the sense in paying people to hold onto my money, when i rarely need to transact with any company/entity except on a cash level..this game will probably make me open a new acct up..then once i’ve paid in i will do what i did last time:

get an overdraft, rack it up to the max then never pay em. haha, banks..

they make so much, they write off small losses like a few hundred bucks

Erm, if you get a savings account they pay you?

My bank doesn’t charge for Paypal transactions.

You could also get a prepaid credit card, I guess.

what use is a savings acct for directly paying from it to a business?

i rather think theyd charge you a bit to do that. also a few cents or dollars per month to hold ono my money, when i dont want to go in every time to get said money, with their banking hours? debit cards cost, per use, etc..i dont pay money into banks, i prefer to rip them off whenever possible, after the nightmare stories ove heard about endless bank errors

In Monopoly, the bank error is in your favor.

And if you shop around, not all banks charge for debit card use – try local banks or credit unions.
