A question about playtime.

[Cavi587]

Hi. Before I start I just wanna say that this thread wasn't made to shit on the new system, I just wanna ask a question. I got over the whole thing and now I think I may actually pay, but I need to be sure about something. Does buying "1 month playtime" for $15 give me 720 hours of playtime, or does it mean that I can play without limit for a month, like in a subscription? I need to know before I spend my money. If it gives you 720 hours, it would probably mean that I'm gonna pay because I don't se myself hitting 720h in less than 5-6 months, so it would be a fair price.

It would be killer to know if the playtime you get from the month passing was cumulative as well, or if we lose the 12/24 hours if we dont use them


not that ill be leaving the pc to do anything but eat and go to work though

Its S15 for 30 days. once 30 days is over, you gotta pay again. unlimited game play though.

But it wouldn't be logical, because a $10 subscription gives you the same thing you just said + a hat.

its $5 more because it comes in the form of a item that can be traded.

Meanig if i dont log in anymore after lets say 10 days played time i loose the other 20 days despite having payed for them?

If you buy 30 days, then play 10 days, stop playing for 20 days and start playing again, yes, you lost 20 days even if you paid them, it's the system of P2P games, but the problem is the price, because pay to play games have really expencive graphic and physic engines, a lot of people working on them and excellent servers, this game is like 16-bit graphics with a shitty server and 2 dwarves working on it, so the price is totally wrong, let's say 200 players buy a monthly subscription, 15x200=3000$, so 1500$ for each, with a very cheap server, and without really doing a hard work for it (yes they did a hard work before, but from now they would gain a lot of money without doing almost anything) and probably by doing another real work (like 8 hours a day work), so they would be very very rich!

But it's in reverse. The 30 days + hat is cheaper than without hat. It makes no sense whatsoever.

I think it's because you can trade the 30 days time with someone else in game for something valuable or give it to a friend or use it whenever you want and not in the moment you buy it, and the subscription make they feel like "the next month he will pay us again, "

It makes absolute sense.
The $10 option is for Your account.
The $15 options tradable in game for ANY account.

So you can buy the $15 Token and trade it in game for something shiny.
Essentially it could be a way for players who can't afford or don't want to buy Gametime for $$ to farm in game and exchange their time for it with another player instead.
