Not on my platform, at a basic $60 or much more for the Deluxe. Talk about greed.

It's no subscription, like Guild Wars 2.

If you`re talking about GW 2 Chosen,there is no way you can pay-to-win there or did you mean pay-to-win exists in defiance unlike GW 2? Sorry i just don`t understand what you mean.

Like "GW2", at least in it's design, then it won't be so much pay-to-win but it might be Co-Op-to-win according to the description.
Still, $60 for the basic edition and $100 for the DDE? No way. I waited and picked up "Star Trek Online DE" for $5 so I'd do the same for this, if any good.
Anyway, the TV series it is tied in with might be a flop.

I meant that U can afford some useful stuff in GW2 for real money.

Still, very different to say "WoT" which really IS Pay-to-win.

Yea but there is no such thing as pay-to win there,exp and money boosters don`t mean your character will be better than those that don`t pay and they don`t sell items like armor and weapons and even if they did you can trade in-game money for gems so basically you can buy anything you want without ever paying more than the 60 $ to buy the game.

You can buy those gems right?

You don`t get my point,you cannot buy an item with gems that is better than anything you can get for gold or from loot,last i checked they don`t even have stuff like weapons and armor there for sale,only skins for them that only affect how it looks.

Basically the same as "STO" now. You can buy skins and extra Bridge Officers. Duty Officers etc., but aside from the last two it's all cosmetic. The Officers you pick up in-game so quickly you'd never bother buying any anyway. Besides, by refining Dilithoium in the game, which is simple, you can sell it for Zen (real money converter). Never have to spend a cent of your own cash.
With "WoT", I'd rather just buy a Panzer Mk.VI than grind away for endless boring matches with a Panzer Mk.II, working my way up in Gold counts. That to me is pay-to-win, where time is the resource you're spending/wasting grinding, if you don't splash the cash.

I played it on PS3 and it is laggy when you turn sometimes and has quite a number of glitches,it plays like Red Faction .
However it compensates with all the players joining in battle and it is quite addictive after a while and it has a good soundtrack.
Just need some updates!
