One serious question. If it's f2p there must be some "donating" things for devs to earn money of this game. So what do you think guys, will this incredible game transform into another shitty mmorpg where only rules the person, who is spending more real money, or not?

Seems like the new game will be much prettyer then H&H, but there is a one question.

Kind of "Quality modficators", "ULTRA curiosities", premium account, that you will need to buy if you just don't want to spend 24/7 in game just to reach the level of guys with PA, who plays 3-4 hours a day, and other stuff like that.

Only the dev's and distributors know at this point, but it will undoubtedly be a one off price to buy/download the disks, something like £30.NaVi405 wrote:Seems like the new game will be much prettyer then H&H, but there is a one question.

And if paradox's previous form is anything to go by, they will make money from 'expansions' - what form these expansions take is hard to say, but other games by paradox give better graphics resolution, more research possibilties, and bigger areas of influence in their expansion packs.
From this , it is my guess that you can play as much as you want for free, but you will have to buy an expansion to build a village, mine to layer 2, get better resolution, and maybe some cosmetic outfit/weapon improvements (i am only guessing, but it has been said by the devs that non-payers will not suffer unduely by not paying)
Unfortunately we will all have to wait at least 6 months before we know anything more, and even then the pay structure might not be revealed until it is actually released (Q3 is quarter 3, could be august or december depending if the devs count 1st jan, or 1st april(tax year) as start of year)
