Free to Play vs Original Release

Post by BiteNibbleChomp »

Now that the new free-to-play system has been out for nearly a month, what are everyone's opinions of it?

I've purchased everything, so I can't really say, but it is kind of like a demo version, I suppose. You try it and then purchase - if you like it - to expand it to the full game. Seems fair to me.

I got on board when OOB was first released and purchased everything until recently. At first I was disappointed with the new format but after some thought, it seems like a good idea. I like the notion of getting one scenario free and then deciding whether to purchase the whole campaign. If I would have had that option earlier I would have skipped Morning Sun.

The concept is a good one, gives you insight to the new campaigns. If you like it you buy it...if not...you move on. :mrgreen:

I found it kinda boring and linear. I didn't see that much difference between it and Panzer General or Panzer Corps.

For free though I wasn't expecting much. At least it kept me from wasting any real money on it.
