GMPathy GameMaster	There is room for more than one payment model and each has their own merits.

dohwee Player	Why not just restrict the amount of skill you can raise/level before you have to pay. Everyone can raise/level their skill to a certain limit that they still can enjoy the gameplay but if they want to continue to be stronger and better then they pay each month.

GMPathy GameMaster	A sandbox game is about choice, restricting players access to areas of the game is the complete opposite of the principles of the game. The payment method is already decided and not up for debate as far as I am aware. The last published information included an option to pay a lifetime subscription or subscribe. There will be no box cost and a free trial. Other payment models are viable, but not with Dawntide due to both the game style and in game mechanics.

elench Player	It does not matter at this moment cause YOU CAN”T DOWNLOAD THE GAME ANY-MORE 0b/0b up/down with a max of rare 4b/8b for the last three days. Even f2p model payments allow you to download the game first ! Sure you going to blame my connection for this, 50Mbit both way no problems downloading anything from smut to white-papers.

GMPathy GameMaster	The method of install is via the patcher, and then torrenting the information from other players. With the game offline there is a strong likelihood that nobody has ther patcher running to give you data. I cannot keep the patcher open all the time, personally, but I do now have it running and I will also see if I can get a few more people on the team to provide a torrent seed as often as possible. In normal conditions there is not an issue, sorry for any inconvenience. If you are unable to actually download the patcher please repost, as I have not had an issue when I just tried. I am assuming you issue is recieving data via torrent. I will notify the dev team that this has become an issue, and hopefully we can avoid this in future.

Stonyeir Player	I will try and keep the patcher open as well Pathy to help out. The more people we get in game once the servers are back up, the better. And hopefully some of the people who havent played yet once they get in will realize that the F2P model is not good for a game like this. Hell from what I have seen in games that tried the item mall most have died or been filled with a crappy (as in low pop) community or is high pop with the worst kind of players. I personally don’t want the idiots who spend 1000′s of their trust fund on a game just so they can teabag everyone they see.

Wildcopper Player	“F2P is the future get over it.” Hum no. Because even what you call “free” is actually not free.

Brunodragon Player	I prefer B2P :) i’ve seen other sandbox games like mortal online, the game is 23 EUR and 1 month is 11 EUR, for me its expensive, i would play if it was B2P (23 EUR) but i dont have conditions to keep paying every month , sry my bad english.
