Free to Play . . . but I have to purchase it to play?

[InsightKnight]

This is blatant false advertising. The day this title becomes free to play, then mark it as such. As of right now you have to pay in order to access this title, which is not "free to play". You can moan and whine all you want about the terminology but fact of the matter is SOE is bold face lying.

The term Free to Play suggests that I can play, for free. Since I can not do this it is simply not "free to play" and as of right now that is blatant false advertising on the Steam Store. Many other games have been asked to alter the description on the SteamPage for much less of an offense.

Thanks.

DECDEPTION! DECEPTION! DECEPTION!

For someone who has 300+ hrs in WarZ I dont think you truly understand the word deception...

That's nothing, I have seen 1 person on these forums, with 1400 hours in War Z.

LMAO this game is WarZ: New Beginnings haven't you heard? Sorry, but even if it's not it still is just by how the games already being presented. The fact that i'll be F2P at any point just means the game is destined to die quick. LOL Warz(ISS) is riddled with hackers and that game will at least cost you .99 F2P is gonna be a crap show....Not to mention the game has a nonexistent anti cheat and they won't be IP Banning the scummies they do catch. LOL WarZ NB INCOMING!!!!!

Is now a good time to come clean and say that i have 1200+ hrs of gametime ;-? but i enjoyed it for what it was, did i dispise the devs like every other sane person hell yeah i did and from what i can gather they havent learned a damn thing since they released the game, seems to only have gotten worse tbh.

It`s the way gaming works these days.

There is basically no incentive for them to release a full game at a specified date. It`s much easier to just jump on the "Early Access" train, make people pay to play an unfinished game and at the same time evade all criticism since they, and some people here, will just shout "but it`s and alpha/beta/early access" or whatever, as if this excuses everything.

you also forgot that the players are going to find bugs that 100 SOE employee's cant find. When you get thousands in game people will find bugs. Thats also a big part of it. Yes, i realzie the main part is them making 20 bucks off people and there isnt anything wrong with that if they are up front about what early access is about.

I think the OP made that clear a long time ago...

SOE moved the "Free to Play" term on the steam page. You now have to actually click "Read More" and scroll down to see it instead of that term being blatantly shown up top as it was before. SOE is obviously trying to shy away from us pointing this shady nonsense out. This is already turning into Sergey Titov inspired management and the game is not even available yet . . .

Game looks ♥♥♥♥ anyway...
