Are you able to buy battle pass levels in this game?

[Strayed Sheep]

For the life of me I can't find a yes or no on this absolutely anywhere. I know you're able to buy the pass and then 20 levels on top of it. But can you still buy levels afterword?

[Dhomochevsky]

why would you do that? why would anyone spend money on a f2p game?

[THUNDERTWONK]

yes you're able to

It's unreal how some people think entertainment runs on sheer pure will, looking down on anybody who want to upkeep it for them. Purely narcissistic behavior.

developers already got paid, and the ones that hasnt been fired or moved into another projects are still beign paid for maintenance of the game and servers and so on. developers will be ok and if not well they should be unionizing, i dont care about huge corporations teeheehee.

My lord.. how do you think they get paid if not for how their product succeeds? Clearly you have very little understanding of any financials.

Surely even you understand that a company falls under and doesn't get maintenance and updates if their product doesn't succeed.

The investors have paid their salary by investing in the company, but it is not free money. They actually need to make money with the product and hopefully enough so that the profits can cover the costs. They keep up maintenance, servers and content ONLY because they are hoping to turn their product profitable and cover the costs. The costs INCLUDE dev salaries.

This is game company 101 financials and I can't believe I even need to explain this to you.

Let me ask you a question, no wait, it's a rhetorical one: Why do you think some games cost money and some games are free2play?

Answer for you anyway: Because they have different finance models.

Free to play games can only turn costs into profits by selling in-game content, usually cosmetics.

If players don't buy cosmetics in The Finals, Embark will be in deep trouble and it could be possible we don't see more quality products from them (new games) in the future. Sure enough Nexon can probably cover the costs if The Finals does extremely horribly considering the costs of making a game of this caliber and keeping it up to date. It wouldn't be good for Embark's future, that's for sure.

Yes, I was able to purchase the battle pass just fine. Yes, after you purchase the regular or plus 20 levels battle pass, you can purchase levels. Just charge your steam wallet then purchase the game currency. Simple.
