I've played CoX for more than a few years and was initially very excited when I heard the rumor that there might be a F2P version coming out, and that I would be able to get a lot of my friends to come over from other F2P and PS games, but as I read the
http://www.cityofheroes.com/news/fre...es.html#tabs-4 tables I see a few things that will more than likely end up as deal breakers for them
1. The lack or whispers/tells is going to be a big one. I never send a team invite without first sending a tell asking if they would like to join first. its just common courtesy.
2. the inability to join a sg.
3. only 2 slots, this should be at least 4 slots.
4.No In-Game Mail?
I understand that some of this is because of a worry that there will be an influx of spam, but from what I've seen from other F2Ps that I have played it is normally not the case.
What I see CoX ending up with, if anything, is the non gamers, there are other games out there that allow for a lot more freedom for their F2P players, and the potential CoX customer base is just gonna stay where they're at or find another game that allows for greater freedom, and not with us.
