Joint Ops: Quick Question

[dart321]

I was looking at the back of the Joint Ops box and in small bold print it says something about "Subscription service may be required for some game features". So I put it up right there, afraid I might have to pay per month. Anyway, surprisingly, none of the reviews are talking about pay to play when discussing Joint Ops, so I gotta ask: is it pay to play?

im 99.9% positive its NOT pay to play.

Me too, but I want to be sure.

Its not pay to play... Oddly enough only the US (I think) boxes says that about subscription, others (such as my EU version) doesnt have a single word on it.

There is however supposed to be some sort of "premium" service... Completely optional, no idea what it gives extra. No idea if its even gonna go live either, Nova are currently very cryptical, they dont tell us poor players crap.

Here's a quote from the site
"A lot of talk is going on in the community right now about the 'Premium Service' sticker that is on the Joint Ops retail box. The sticker is a little misleading, so I would like to clear this topic up once and for all.

1/ Everything you get in the retail version of Joint Ops (Co-op, 150 player servers etc) is covered by the retail price of the game. We have no plans to charge for any of these features. Period.

2/ We are not currently running a premium service. That sticker is there to cover the possibility of a service being introduced sometime in the future.

3/ IF we start a premium service, it will be entirely optional and will cover additional features not in the game.

4/ The cost of this service would be minimal, and nowhere near the figures of $15 being bounced around right now.

I hope this clears this issue up for everyone."


Good game btw.
