The Chronicles of Spellborn is NOT free
In this they said that the game would be free to play with a premium option to unlock all the features of the game.
This wasn't something that was liked by several forum users and as a result a heavy discussion was started between people that were against F2P and people for it. Today Mirage, the head of the Spellborn PR department made an announcement where he made clear that the game will require a subscription and that there will be a free zone, which will be used as a trial.
Hi Spellborn Community,
Today, I'd like to address concerns you guys voiced after the press release from Acclaim.
So first, TCoS is NOT a Free2Play game.
There is indeed a Free2Play ZONE, ie the starting area. We, Devs, are still looking into the extent of said area. That means, that you, players, can test the game for free, and then have to go for a regular subscription to continue playing the game and level up your character. No subscription equals to being stuck in free2play zone.
Second, there are NO item malls, there is NO item selling.
To sum up:
You can play the beginning of the game for free. This allows you to see whether you like Spellborn or not. If you do like it (we hope so Smile), then you go for a subscription and that's it! Nothing more, nothing less, just go ahead and continue playing.
Rather than offering the usual "14 days trial" or similar, we decided to go for this free2play starting zone. This will allow you more time to get a good feel on the combat system and on the questing, and in general to give a good impression on what Spellborn is all about.
At the end of the day, if you want to have a character and level it, access all the gameplay and zones of the game, you go for the regular subscription.
I repeat, TCoS is NOT FREE2PLAY. There is ONLY a ZONE with Free access. Of course, there will be limitations as in it is not possible to travel and explore ALL the zones of Spellborn with this free account. To explore, level up and continue beyond the starting area, a subscription is needed.
The Free2Play zone is nothing more than a trial period, which you already know from many other MMOs out there. We simply assume that Spellborn would gain more attention by offering such model, in comparison to the 14 days trial, and would give you more time to become familiar with the combat system and gameplay, without the concern of loosing days of play because of RL events/work/etc, preventing you from playing. I think it's even more fair for you guys.
Same system will apply to European version, but we'll come back to you with all details on that later.
Hope this alleviates all your concerns.
Lucky us, because the crowd that a F2P MMO attracts isn't the sort of people where you can build a decent community with.Today, I'd like to address concerns you guys voiced after the press release from Acclaim.
