No thanks. The former Naughty Dog guy kept talking about this system of paying and I found myself cringing.

In the video they cut to footage of Battlefield Heroes which I would reference as why I don't want this model to grow. Especially after the December update which made it so that VP (in-game currency you earn playing the game) was even more useless for renting items and weapons compared to if somebody used BF (points you buy with real money).

Wasn't it something like, if you are going to play for free you have to play at least 4 hours a day to just keep your current level of gear and upgrades?

I don't know the exact amounts, but if I recall the big thing they did was increased the VP cost of renting something and reduced the time something can be rented. I think some items might have become BF only too.

I've only played it for a short time in the summer and haven't touched it since.
