How Much Will The Game Be And Will There Be Monthly Payment?

[Yami-Yagari]

When DoF finally gets released, it will be super addictive running your online empire sort of. If you had to pay for it weekly/monthly, would not only be cruel but also really bad idea, because you might lose most to all your customers.

Id honestly prefer monthly. Yea its more money (granted the same amount for me cause i would pay for dof rather than one of the MMOs i play now) but more money means supporting the devs more, giving them better salary's and also giving them extra resources to put twards new and better content. IMO monthly games are 9 out of 10 times better than one-time-pay or micro trans. games.

my thoughts exactly! i by far prefer monthly payment to ensure future support.
devs, will it be possible to suport DOF with 1 time pay like other monthly payed MMO's are supported? will it be supported like the typical MMO's?

the one problem i see with monthly payment is that my town sells no gamecards to anything but wow... ITS TERRIBLE... thats why i like one time pay because paying over Internet is not possible for someone like me without a job...

I feel your pain

that's when you ask your parents to use there credit or debit card to pay for your time, and if your like me and don't wanna ask your parents you could always go get a job, that's what i just did for eve online, just got my first paycheck Thursday, and im going to start paying for time.
what i used to do for playing is that i would buy game time cards from in-game eve online currency ( Isk ). it would cost me around 300million isk to buy 30 days of playing time, and in eve u can make 300 million in a few days depending on your skills ect. and they support this buy haveing people buy the time cards online, and that player sells it to another for isk, this way the people that have money can earn more isk, and the people that dont can still play EvE.
i think a system like this is a very good one and DOF should adopt something very similiar

Getting a job isn't really that easy. i've tried looking for work for some time now, but most employers only want people with work experience, which of course you need a job for in order to get

Given the average age of the people on these forums, from what I can see at least, paying monthly subscriptions could prove to be a problem, as for getting a job, that's always hard, not everyone can just get hired whenever they want to. Also, credit cards and debit cards are mostly an american thing, if you have lots of european players, they most likely will not have those things, as paying for things around here is done mainly by cash.

I see points in monthly payment - as far as for the devs and the game itself goes.

But for myself - monthly games end up costing huge amounts to the player in the long run. I think any online gamer can attest to that.

And it also raises the same issue that I have with Xbox Live - I might want to play it at either sporadic points or only for a week or so, in which case the payment is wasted.
