Why is that? The EU servers work fine, and I am in the USA. Why not explain instead of just bashing the idea??
I think it would do just fine on steam. Someone a few posts back said "not until you remove the pay 2 win". I do not see this "pay 2 win" people talk about. I am level 20 and can get everything that anyone else can get, it may take a little longer then someone who pays money but that does not give an unfair advantage. Its very fair, they are supporting this wonderful game, they should get a little boost. About buying levels and gold with real cash, I love it. I think its an amazing ideas. Why? Because look at every other online game with currency. They have people on them that sell the in-game currency for real money. That is taking money from the company and giving it to the players. This allows the company to profit from the purchase of gold rather then some kid sitting at home farming. Therefor, the game devs get paid and the game gets better.
I do think that the resources found after games should be increased. You level up faster then you can get your gear. Then again that's what the slider is for, isn't it? Maybe some other adjustments to the free part of the game would be nice. Other then that and some bugs I think this game has potential.
The only true issue I see with this game is not enough players. Once they get more players things balance out.
