Not to hijack the thread but I've not looked into the specifics of MWO. What is it doing badly with their F2P model?

If you pay you get increased XP and in-game money. It becomes a grind-fest, whereas games like Dota 2 only sell cosmetic items and don't give players any gameplay advantage for paying. I'm not a fan of XP/unlock systems in non-RPG games, especially when combined with pay-for-advantage systems like MWO - especially when the top-tier costs $120, which is dramatically more than a regular game costs. Not everybody objects as I do, but I'd much rather pay for a game outright than give an advantage to players that pay more.

Dude you have no fucking clue what you're talking about when it comes to MWO. You still need skill to do well. PS2 has XP boosts as well available in it's store. How is that any different at all?

If that's the case for PS2 then I object, as I have made perfectly clear. I'm not applying double standards.

Stop talking out of your ass about a game you obviously haven't played and don't know shit about.

How the hell I'm I meant to have played a game that hasn't even been released yet?
