I'd buy the game.

Of course how MUCH i'd pay for it does depend. How much content is there? How often does the game get support (I.E. bugfixes, new content, server upgrades)? What's the community like?

As of RIGHT NOW? I might drop five bucks on AoS. I could certainly see myself paying up to 20 dollars for it, depending on how well supported it is and how much replay value the game has (as of now, the additional game modes add quite a lot, but I'd like to see content added other than that.)

It's only natural to make profit from a game you worked hard on. He also wants to take, and not only just to give.

On the other hand, making AoS Pay to Play is a rather disturbing though. The community, in part, built around people who have rather old computers ("Your grandmother’s rig can run this game"). It would be rather sad to take one of the only games they play away from them.

I could see Ben making profit from advertisements and donations rather than selling the game. This way, we, the people who play AoS, can still play the game (with advertisements here and there) AND Ben could easily profit from what he made. Heck, he can even make it so that donors who donate a certain sum of money won't see ads.

To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

I totally agree with that. Donations and advertisements are much more suitable to make Ben make money frm AoS than making it p2p IMO.

Hello,

I'd say yes if:

- More Weapons
- Vehicles
- More customisations

will be in the game.

Regards,
Shesiressu

Shesiressu, for me that is exactly a reason not to pay for AoS
Except for more customisations, whatever that is it sounds nice

Hey,

I mean something like that you can change your skin-color, maybe the shape of the skin, also adding armour ... this game has so much potential.

This is bad news for asians. Asian parents dont like online credit card buying especially in a game.

But we already have something like that, they're called mods
What i would like to see are different player models for each team
And dreaming more, different weapon models for each team, for example, Blue's semi might be a Gewehr, while the Greens are a Garrand and so on

Why does the blue team have to be a N@zi team.
