I'm sorry words mean things?

If you have to pay for the game, it's not free to play.

I don't make the rules up mate. Just stating the facts.

Defiance is a free to play MMO, it is called FREE TO PLAY because instead of relying on a monthly subscription to sustain the cost of keeping the servers running (that the MMO Universe sits on) they instead rely on "micro transactions"

...so you know it is FREE TO PLAY.

If I am downloading the client I don't expect to be paying more then £30 and that's pushing it.

dude, Defiance is not Free to Play, Dcuo is Free to Play with monthly subscription if you want to unlock all content.
Defiance is a Purchase game to Play no Subscription MMO. NOT FREE to PLAY.

Same as Guild Wars I take it.

Let him have his nonsense and walk away...

Ouch that hurt, oh wait no because your a moron so its all OK

Look its FREE to PLAY it as opposed to PAYING for a Subscription to PLAY it.

Call yourself gamers and you can't grasp simple concepts!

That's bullshtako.

If defiance was Free To Play, you could play it without paying any money right? Well the thing is, you can't. You need to buy a copy of the game and after that it's free to play in a sense because there is no subscription.

Defiance is B2P (Buy to play).

No because there is no such term. It's FREE to PLAY or SUBSCRIBE to PLAY.

Developer Rob Hill says it in the first few seconds of the interview here : http://gamerhub.tv/videos/trion-worl...lc/2013/03/16/

You BUY the game and then it is free to play or micro transactions.

Not my words but the words of one of the guys who made the dam thing!

[Blastiel]

Hahahaha it's funny how the moment you link to FACTS everyone shuts up!

Now back to the point, £40 is to much for a digital download. Agree / Disagree?
