I know Gree will never do it, but I'm just curious as to whether people prefer Gree's current play-for-free/pay-for-premium system or would rather have a system where everyone pays, but no one gets anything special. I'd gladly pay $5/month to get rid of the constant heckling Gree gives me for not buying gold.

..but then the rich people will complain that they can't spend money to be better than everyone else. How is that fair? :-P

Strategy? Who needs strategy when you got GOLD!

As much as I don't like the whole "you must buy gold to be the best" concept, I'd gladly continue playing this rather than have to pay to play the game.

I've been MW for 3 years or so and never spent a penny. Yes I hate the fact that I get walked over by all the money spenders, but I think I've done quite well for myself. In BfB I placed 3016th by myself. Att 70k def 72k level 129. I contribute my vast FREE money to the pay players because I steal it from them. I think I have over 60 stamina so when I see over 10mil watch out. I get cussed a lot. How about a leader board for pay factions and free factions.... Or would that be too fair??? Then the pay players would dump even more money into gree(d)'s pockets to beat each other up, it's a win win. Whatever keep a close eye on your bases free players need money too

The basis for the discussion is flawed. The game is run by a for profit company not a public (free) Service

Is gold to expensive ... YES.

So let's get this straight. Gree should stop collecting millions from players forking it over for special pixels and collect $5 a month from everyone? lol
They are incompetent and stupid at times. Lord knows we have seen enough evidence of that but not THAT stupid.

I love the constant accusations that people that buy gold don't know how to play the game.

There is a direct correlation between intelligence and anual income. The largest exception to this is with professional sports.

Therefore, the heaviest gold spenders are most likely the most intelligent players to begin with. Thus, the gold is only enhancing their stats and game play. There are exceptions, but in my dealings with the Whales in this game my assessment is the rule and not the exception.

What you guys are saying is very similar to saying that, "If I took steroids, I would be a professional athlete."

I've been playing for 9 months and haven't spent any money on gold either. I feel I've done very well for myself with 115K attack and 129K defence and level 155. I'm very active and do a lot of raiding. The only thing that slows me down is when Gree boosts my casualty rate of makes my rivals insanely strong. Otherwise I make my living off of other peoples bases. That's what this game is about. As others have said in the past, this is not Modern Farming or Modern Camping. Its Modern War. If you don't tend to your base, its fair game. However, I would love to know how I do against fellow free players. There is no comparison between gold and free players. If people want to blow their money on this game, fine. Others blow it in casinos or booze or drugs or other things. Apparently they don't really value their money. I choose to spend my money on my life and my family. Not some silly game. For that I only waste my time. Hmmm, should rethink that one as well maybe.

Wait, if there's no gold then some factions won't be able to buy victories anymore.

This is a company, therefore it has to make money, so this whole topic is rather mute, but in fantasy land I would rather pay a one time fee like the games you must buy to play, or the option to buy game to prevent seeing all the ads. Then they could make it to where we could earn gold for special things. Making this game more challenging by competing for gold like during the wars.
