I highly doubt MAG is pay to play anyway Sony have already mentioned they would prefer to sell in game content rather than have a subscription.

Cows are allergic to paying to play multiplayer games.

If they were cool with it, they would all be paying to play on the superior LIVE service, rather then "settling" for the meh-rated PSN.

So MAG is doomed to flop in sales, unless cows are hypocritical...........if thats possible :roll:

-GhostMLD-

Have lemmings never been hypocritical?

How about how before MS released avatars people were knocking Sony for copying MS but as soon as MS does it to Nintendo it's somehow acceptable?

How about the "I dont buy my console to watch movies" argument but then they get excited over Netflicks, movie marketplace, and the rumors of a Blu Ray add on.

How about the fact you are sitting here talking about the PS3 as if you know everything about it when truth is you've probably never even touched one???

ewww...touching one, i cringe at the thought.

Yeah, thats pretty much known from you.

Besides, hows the weather in your mind today? Extremely clouded?

Or are you trying to prove yourself as the most annoying lem out there? You've still got competition. You gotta be worse than Dur_Rocky.

Just like nobody bought Warhawk and still plays it... right?

oh, wait..

Nightflash28

does it require a monthly subscription?

no?

Does MAG?

^Notice he didnt touch that one, because it's never been confirmed, or even rumored, anywhere, that MAG would have a monthly fee.

Every lemming is talking out of their ass about it as Damage Control.

His assumption is that it will, thus, his point. However, what do you expect? This is the sort of games that are played out on a daily basis here in SW. This game is a long way away from being released. I trust we could argue about other things until then. :P

MAG has a monthly fee? Link?theycallmeryan

That's just common sense. A game as big as MAG or any other MMO for that matter has a monthly fee. This is because the money it takes to develop it would far surpass the actual profits from sales.

This fictional statement is wrong on so many levels. We play many games online such as motorstorm, resistance, call of duty 4, warhawk, gtaiv as well as many other games. I just don't see the point of paying for a service that should be free.

We still need proof that it will have a monthly fee. Common sense doesn't always apply to every situation, lol.

There entirely free MMORPGs available for PC. You don't even pay for the game. And why should it be common sense? Some PC shooters allowed up to 128 players in a game and required no additional fee.

I'm not saying that the news about a monthly fee won't come (though I think it's very unlikely), but as of yet, none of that has been announced, so don't cling onto that just yet.

I think Ghost said it's not copying if you do it better.

Is there actual proof that MAG will be subscription based?
