[CLOSED] Episode 2: Would you Pay? | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
We know that Evil Trout, and the crew that makes this game, have at least entertained the idea of making Episode 2 “pay-to-play”:
Nope, that’s it so far. It’s likely that Episode 2 will require some kind of payment to play, but we haven’t fully sorted that out yet. And the idea of selling t-shirts or posters has been thrown around, but both of those concepts are up in the air right now.
If it comes down to it, would you pay to play this game?
Personally, I would. A big reason I never got into games like City of Heroes or WoW was the cost, as well as the free nature of Guild Wars. But FWZ is not only interesting enough to pay for, but it eat up as much time as other games.
But unfortunately, I don’t have access to Paypal, so it would have to be via cash or money order. |

No. And I would probably kill myself. |

I don’t think so as I don’t really have any way to pay for it. |

I already donated 10bux, so I hope I don’t have to pay again, but I guess I probably would. |

I would LOVE to keep playing, but I’ve got no way to pay. I’m a sorry fool without credit cards. |

Hey all, we’ve been discussing this concept for a while now and I am reluctant to provide a definitive answer as we haven’t decided what to do ourselves. From the blog, Evil Trout has posted:
The cost of episode 2 is still very much in the air right now. We have discussed many different pricing ideas and we have ultimately come to the conclusion that it depends on how comprehensive episode 2 is when we’re finished. So the official stance is no comment for now, but obviously we will do our best to reach as many people as possible.
Stay tuned and take solace in knowing that we will consider all opinions before making any decisions. |

I would like to say I would. I love the games humor and community, and it never ceases to amaze me how badbum it is. But, unfortunately, the answer is probably no, I wouldn’t. |

No. Forumwarz has been a pretty sweet time-waster, but there are other things that I need to spend my money on. |

all these people with no access to credit cards need to hurry up and get credit cards. even you’re a stupid 12 year old you should be able to buy stuff online. I’ll buy forumwarz episode 2 for sure. |

no I wouldn’t pay to play either.. I donated my money I did my part. I wouldnt mind donating maybe 10 more possibly but pay to play sounds ghey… Just a honest answer. |

The Other Other Hole Posted:
Has there been any thought to expand payment plans? I personally don’t need a credit card at the moment, and don’t really want to get one over an online game.
If worst comes to worst, I could get a Visa Gift card from Wal-Mart and pay that way, but those are fairly expensive. |

**** yeah I’m pretty sure I would
even though I’ve got sort of tired of the game at the moment, I’ve still enjoyed it (and the server is responsive and always playable, unlike mother****ing urban dead) |

As entertaining as Forumwarz is, I’m afraid that since I don’t have any method of paying, the answer would be no. |

If we’re talking like the $10 range, probably. As far as getting a prepaid Visa… it’s not that expensive, for ****’s sake. |

Well, they’re ~$50, which I’d prefer to have in cash. It’s not too bad, because it gives me a chance to buy harder-to-get CDs, but I’d still prefer to pay via MO or cash. |

Once you’re 18, if you’re a student or a steady job you should have almost no problem getting a credit card that has no additional fees, and a low cap of like 1,000. Just use it in place of debit or cash and build your credit rating, it’ll help you out in the long run. |

They’re $50 just to get one? Where are you looking? |

If Episode 2 would be a full on “expansion,” I’d toss in ten bucks. Heck, maybe more, but odds are that I’d rather snag another character slot and try all three clbumes. And maybe one for my gimped “Re-re Runthru.”
So yeah, ten bucks plus my other tennish bucks. |
