Say I. I can't wait till the open city key thing comes out, I'm dying to try it. How about you?
I played the beta, wasn't particularly impressed, so I'm not buying it.
no i buy games when they come out and after i hear stuff about them so i dont waste my money on crap
played beta and it was shit
I played the beta, I didn't really like it at all.
Is APB the game that expected you to pay to play the game for a certain amount of hours?
Yes but there's a subscription option too IIRC. I sort of prefer the "pay for X hours" subscription model though, it means you don't feel like you need to try your best to get your money's worth every month. I'm going to play the Key to the City thingymabob when it starts then decide if I want to pay for it or not.
[QUOTE=ashxu;22438400]Is APB the game that expected you to pay to play the game for a certain amount of hours?[/QUOTE] Eh for as far as i know it's on a monthly base like WoW.. Game has a cool concept but i think that, Sadly, That's the last awesome thing it contains.
I'd consider it if my computer could run it. I tried the beta and while it looked fun and I have several friends who are well established in the community (and thus could easily get me off to a good start), my computer is unable to handle it. :frown:
[QUOTE=scientist;22438421]Eh for as far as i know it's on a monthly base like WoW..[/QUOTE] [quote]A subscription-like system will be used, where players purchase game time for action districts, either by purchasing hours or by opting for an unlimited playtime option for 30 days. Players will be required to purchase a copy of the game, which will have an MSRP of $49.99 in the United States, £34.99 in the United Kingdom and €49.99 in Europe, and will include 50 hours of initial game time.[/quote] So yeah, you can either opt for a WoW like structure or pay for X ammount of hours. Also, why didn't you post this in the MMO subforum? I mean there's a big thread about APB there already.
played the beta, customization was great, everything else was shit.
I played the beta, I liked it but I got bored with it quite fast.
i did.
What exactly is APB? who is developing it?
I preordered it. And it is 5€ for 20 hours. Cheap!
Memory leaks, lots of people hacking, shitty performance and gameplay. Nah.
Everyone with an IQ under 90 preordered it
I don't think it's a very wise decision to purchase an MMO at launch, let alone pre-order one. That's just me and my personal experience though.
[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;22440756]Everyone with an IQ under 70 didn't order it[/QUOTE] Fixed :eng101:
APB is shit. Played the beta, horrible. Dont pre-order(In my oppinion)
[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;22440756]I don't like a game so I'm going to call everyone who likes and pre ordered it an idiot![/QUOTE] :downs:
You're right only idiots WOULDN'T spend £25 (and then some for the bizarre subscription options) for an online fashion design game with half-assed GTA tacked on
I preorded because it was worth the slightest chance that there's a halfway decent Shooter/MMO hybrid worth playing.
I was going to, I am glad I didn't now.
if I have to subscribe for online, no, and i will never play it XD
I was going to until it changed into a monthly pay system, the game isn't really worth the dough, needs a lot of balancing and new game modes.

And they have already gotten a feel for the gameplay.
Although beta sucked, I was considering buying it to play with friends. Until they revealed their subscription system.
I tried the beta, it's not worth the pricing model.
[QUOTE=RivaGe;22442148]Although beta sucked, I was considering buying it to play with friends.

[QUOTE=Leaf Runner;22442159]I tried the beta, it's not worth the pricing model.[/QUOTE] Maybe because it is a BETA?
