This game Is a WOW clone & I never say that till today.From the Maps to the Elite symbol on monsters & the Graphics.Stick to WOW.
$0>$15 dollars a month+expansion costs.

Yeah, i agree with that. And that $15/month got me what in WOW? Gms taking care of AFKs? No. Balance? No. Um, free xpacs? No. Smooth Servers with almost no downtime? No. Smooth patches with almost no downtime? No. In-game help from GMs? No. (well they would eventually respond...with a macroed answer to every question or problem that would blame my computer [oh, there is a guy botting? maybe you should clean your cache] wtf?) So yeah, I'll give $0 a try.
No. There are an in game item shop however but all item in the shop is possible to get in the game with some work. And it seems like the P2P games are starting stuff like it too. For some cash you can also change both your apperance and the colour of your armour (Well it costs rubies which can be bought, you might get them in the game too, dunno).
I been in the CB a month or so, and it is really worth trying it at least. You might off course not like it but you have nothing to lose by trying it
It's free. So you have nothing to lose. Give it a try, if you like it then go for it. I'm considering checking it out. I'm sure with the F2P model you will not get as deep an experience as some of the P2P games but it is still worth a shot. I wonder why some of these games have not tried the Guild Wars model. Pay for the game up front but then no monthly fee. I must say that just from the coverage on this site, it looks like a decent game. Couple that with it being free and you might have a little sleeper hit on your hands.
Yeah, I liked wow, but the endless grind and manhours needed started to really et annoying. I have a family and job. I don't have the time to grind out 1000g and exalted rep with akjgtjLgdKJ to get 1 item. (i dunno, 10+ hours of play?). I do have $5 to get that item if I really wanted it (um, 15 minutes of work?). It wil be worth the try. If it is bad, then I can always move on.
Before I get flamed...yeah, some people are children who have lots of free time, and some people are adults who don't. If you want to spend 6 hours a day on a game, then good for you. The fact is, some people can't.
My main beef with f2p is it usually brings in the worst rift raft.. But I'm going to give this a try and hope it won't be to bad as far as community goes.
"It is better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees,"
I have had good and bad experiences with f2p communities....It does seem though that the more similar to WoW the f2p is the worse the community..........

dont forget the goldspammers and botters, though present in WoW aswell but on a smaller scale
MMOs currently playing: -
About to play: Lord of the Rings Online
Played: Anarchy Online (alltime favorite) and lots of f2p titles (honorable mentions: 9Dragons, Martial Heroes, Dekaron, Atlantica Online)
Though i Love this game, your fears are justified. the community is atrocious so far. in fact...and i sincerely
say this with no intention to Troll,just to give my honest opinion,because i DO love this game..it is probably the worst community next to warhammers dark crag..and that's BAD. people will rag on you JUST for "owning" a warhorse and assume you paid with diamonds,as if that is a "bad" thing..that is just one example. one player
even admitted, his "job" was to harass players to see if he can get them to quit.

Holy cow, what server are you playing on? I am on Osha and the community there is absolutely great! You got a boss to kill? Ask in zone and in a few minutes you got enough to raid it if you want. The people there have been extremely friendly. Level 50's standing in the earlier zones buffing everyone and helping kill stuff if you need it. I have to say the worst thing I have seen on this server is someone jumping in front of me to harvest something. If thats the worse, then I think this server is going to be awesome!
Govinda server. i just turned off the zone channel today..ahhh ,now it is nice and peaceful. i have plenty of guild friends from warhammer who joined me to play here to keep cpmpany..i have no intention for now,of joining a Guild, yes,i know,i sound like i am being anti-social, but i help run a big guild on war, and do not desire to be part of one here. i will group play with friends, and be content for now.
