ok , im not trying to say that steam games are MMOs , so dont recharge your flaming guns yet

what i want to say is that FPS games are hiting the real money zone , i think its very cool to win money in pvp , just like a simple bet , i put 1 dollar , u put 1 dollar , winner takes all. AWSOME .

now , this as a huge down side impov , this is gambling , and gambling makes people adictive and poor

yes i can be the best first person shoter on the planet , and still lose to a good player , becose all games have a huge luck factor.

anyway , im rdy to pay 15 a month to play online FPS where i can see some money back , if im lucky

i think they are doing a AWSOME job here , yes its adictive , its gambling , but people already pay 15 month for games that u never win , only if u farm gold or sell acounts like some people do , but this will be real money floating around players.

now some of that money needs to go to steam or whatever companie that is making this , im guessing there is a limit of money u can win , or u only win money in tournements where 1 wins and 7 lose or even more...

anyway , sounds interesting , im going to folow this for sure and see how it works

what do u think if this ?

Do you think I'm paying $15 a month and spending like 2h of my day to... make money? There are much better ways to earn money and game should stay games, that's why we play em.

When there's competition, there's hacking, people crying, people complaining, people harassing, and whatever. Now add the money factor, something for which people even kill each other every day. While there will be honorable competitors such as yourself, I think it will also bring out the worst in most gamers. Having to corpse-run (as boring and stupid as it is) or whatever as the worst penalty is one thing , but actually losing money in a game is another. I'm all for PvP and competition, but it's a lot better when it's in good spirit (even when throwing out and receiving insults in the chat channels ) than what I imagine will be "playing to maim", not playing for fun.



I dunno, I got mixed feelings about this, but the bad part is weighing more.

I will never install another fps till they make them 100% non crackable or hackable...

You really have no idea what you are talking about, do you?

mmm , ok few a topics here

hacking -> steam games are secure if you play in secure servers , its very simple

people playing not for fun but for money -> ohh yes , for sure , but we already have hardcore gamers in all games , money or no money , some people just love to live the game , and become more mad when they lose a match , then when they lose a girlfirend.

good or bad this is the future , real life and virtual life is going to be mixed , more and more as time goes ..

that is the basic point i want to bring in this thread.
