Sign on to verify? WTF? Thats gonna kill it.

As for the Pay To Play? If it isn't like PlanetSide, then I don't know who'd pay to play, the reason Planetside works is because you have a character who is on the same team always, with things that work as experience, as chips and DNA modifications. If it nots that its a normal FPS, and thus pay for THE GAME!!! Besides, that part where Mr. Deflok said "and having to pay that people will start exptected to be charged for playing PC games too." If I have to pay monthly to play a game online.. I'll switch to Console for online in a heartbeat. Why? No more Hardware Updates, and I'm paying monthly for the CONSOLE to be online, not each and every game. Even if PC companies use one payment for all of THEIR games, its still too expensive. I have a home built PC, so I'm not charged to use the system, consoles don't charge per game, but by the console itself. If HF2 goes Pay to Play and it doesn't have any XP benefits... It shall forthwith be boycotted by me, and probably several others. If its not, it will become a trend, something I'm not going to support.
