Monthly Fee? Hope Not

[DEATHKILLER X]

will there be a monthly fee because its an MMOFPS but there are other games out there that are MMO's that you dont have to pay but i was wonder if there was going to be a fee for the xbox 360 I HOPE NOT.

Very good question. i really hope their is no monthly charge

if they keep it at or below $10 that would be their best bet especially if they release a World Premiere Event liike Phantasy STar Universe did before release.

Also which may increase userbase is if Microsoft works a way to let us pay in Microsoft Points. SO that users who dont necessarily have or want to use a credit card can get passed that and enjoy a good MMO.

Guys, its an MMO, there will be a monthly fee around 12-15 dollars a month. If you don't want to pay, then don't play. They need the money to pay for servers and pay workers to work on updates. And your XBL fee goes towards Microsoft, not Webzen, so don't say 'Oh I'm already paying for one, why should I have to pay for another?' because you're just paying for the Microsoft online servers. If you really don't want to pay two fees, then an MMO of this caliber is not for you. You can't begin to comprehend how much money and time goes into them. In order to make an MMO, a company spends around 1mil - 2mil, I know this from a friend who worked on Vanguard. It takes a lot of money and they need our patronage to continue with a great game.

I have no problem with the fee all im saying is their is a good chance it could be around $10 because FF XI is like $7.50 or something a month on the 360 and Phantasy Star Universe is $10 so it might hurt sales if they dont but I for one am looking forward to the game as long as its a reasonable fee for me and my clan to enjoy it.
