YOU MUST PAY?!

i cannot believe this i just red on adventchildren.net that you must pay to play onlline on DOC
6.50$ per moth grrrrrrrrr
the game ist even big like FFXI

Post the link up

It's on adventchildren.net's main page. And it seems to refer to some sort of online multiplayer mode. Which is of no care to me.

Of course there will be a fee. Online games that don't require a fee are the exception, not the rule.
And their servers are often rather poor, too.

WTF THIS IS LIKE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What kind of gameplay will be available online? It had better be something besides the typical deathmatch to get me to pay for it; I can get that on Jedi Academy, Quake, or any number of other games for free. They even have FFVII skins out there; damn good ones, too.

I would be more worried bout the fact that cait sith will be used for stealth missions.:mog:

Mission battles will challenge a group of players to work together to defeat epic-level bosses. Players can earn stronger weapons and armor by fighting successfully, giving a persistent campaign feel to the mode. Kitase hopes that 20 to 30 players will be able to participate in a single battle.

Link.

Personally, I like the idea of the Mission battles, teaming up with a bunch of other people to take down a giant boss. The rest seems to be standard fare, and hopefully they'll support the headset and voice chat.

For me to decided, I'd have to see what it's like, and so I'd probably pay for one month, check it out, and see if I thought it was worth it. This is why I prefer the PC for online games, as they usually require no fee to play.

So, if I am reading right - we can still play the game offline?

Yes. It just has a bunch of multiplayer options, to those that are interested.

I don't like online shooters anyway, I get slowdown making it impossible to win.

Oh that's a bit annoying, oh well it's not really that much to pay.
Anyway I think it will just be as great without online

sooner or later ull b payin more than the game

I don't see this as a problem. The multiplayer function is an extra. I don't have the equipment to do it anyway, and I probably wouldn't do it enough if I did to warrant the money. Everyone has the choice to take the multiplayer or just get it for what is hopefully a solid game. If I do get this game, it won't be for multiplayer and I won't be paying extra.

I really don't know why you dislike this. If you don't like the fee it's not going to do anything. I'm excited that they included this.
