Guild Wars: No micro-transactions just yet

NCSoft currently has no plans to use their new NCcoin-system for Guild Wars or other MMOs, but it might be coming soon.

NCcoins need to be bought with real money after which you can use them to buy in-game items like shields, swords and potions. They're currently used in Exteel but the publishers would like to see them appear in other games as well.

"Currently there are no plans to use the NCcoin system in Guild Wars," a spokesperson for NCsoft told Eurogamer. "NCcoin will not be retrofitted in games that have business models that do not work with a micro-transaction system.
NCSoft wants to be able to offer different kinds of games: the classic MMOs with subscription, other with micro-transactions, and then games for which you have to pay a one-time fee.

"We have grown to the point where if you are an MMO player and you like the traditional subscription-based games, then we have those. If you are an MMO player seeking a free to play and downloadable games with micro-transactions, then we have those. And if you just want to pay for software and have a lifetime of play, then we have that too."
