    I know!

    How dare an open world game where you can customize virtually everything; something no other MMO has done before, charge us!

    How dare they have to spend a lot of money keeping the servers running because of all the data and powers needed!

    It was obvious to me from the start that it would be P2P. There is no way a game that looks that good, that has that much customization, voice chat, everything can ever be F2P.

    It was advertised as a F2P game so it's no suprise people are pissed. They should of said it was going to be P2P from the start.

    But IMO P2P is the wrong way to go because instantly even though at first they may have nothing in common you are going against the big guns which is basically WoW.

    From your statement Guild Wars should have gone bankrupt long time ago...
    Anyway they indeed advertised the game as a F2P, i played the beta and i think that B2P was the best option for the game

    I still can't work out where people are getting the idea that the game was going to be F2P.

    Either way, subscription is cheaper than most games, social districts are free too, not all bad.

    You're also trying to say that Guild Wars is open world, which is by far more expensive to keep up than instanced worlds, allows full PVP, dynamic worlds/missions, etc?

    Please do your research before you try and debate, it's obvious you have no idea what you're trying to argue with if you don't know how guild wars can be F2P compared to a game like APB or WoW.
    lol dude i was a Heavy Hitters so i know everything there is to know about APB and could you please elaborate this sentence because i don't understand what you are trying to say

    It's been optimized more, but, it's still pretty bad.

    Apperantly it's barely playable on 32bit systems, no matter what you got in it.

    I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.

    Argh. Because right now sticking with GTA4 on the Xbox seems a far better deal.

    Didn't someone already completely discredit you by suggesting Second Life as a open world game that allows you to customize virtually everything, "something no other MMO has done before"? For free? Or does that only count in games where you can pwn n00bs with PvP and voice chat?

    And APB is hardly "open world" anyways...
