Team Fortress 2's F2P model is a slap in the face for the player's who paid an original $30 for the game when it launched. The only big difference between F2P, and the 'Premium" account is some extra slots or something stupid like that. You can ONLY do this if you purchase ANYTHING from the store. There's an item that allows you to expand your inventory to 1000 spaces for $2.49. That's a JOKE. And this is what existing players get that purchased the game.. "To thank you for your years of support, we will be giving players who have purchased TF2 a special Proof of Purchase hat (USELESS COSMETIC ITEM) to wear on any character in-game." Are you kidding me? So my \$30 original purchase was compensated for cosmetic product that took your design team half an hour to make? And for anyone to become a premium member, you have to spend $1.00 (the lowest priced item)?! Thank you, REALLY, thank you. Shady business models like this are KILLING the PC gaming industry. Take a f*cking hint from Riot's (creators of League of Legends) business model.
