Qaddafi, of course members will say the game is worth it.. they paid for it...
A non-member saying the game is worth paying for, or a member saying it isn't, gives alot more weight then a member saying it is, or a non-member saying it isn't.
the way i Figure it, personally.. give it time/enjoyment ratio. Personally, I have 498 games.. presume i played each of those games for 10 minutes each, that is 83 hours of enjoyment. Now anyone that plays this game knows that 10 minute games are rare, and also a fair amount of Regular PC games give less hours of enjoyment for a higher cost initially. Whether it is worth it to *insert name* is really up to them. I feel Fizzer has given me more then 30$ worth of enjoyment.. so much more, that i would feel like a complete ass not to help him out by paying for a membership.
Let me tell you what, I would certainly pay if I could, and I certainly will pay when I can. Just do not disappear the lifetime membership before I get it! ;)
To all of you who live in the U.S.A, and some other countries, and don't have a credit cardm get a prepaid debit card! They are sold in every drugstore around the block.
I agree the game is quite good and interesting. Im still playing it right? Nevertheless there are not many people here and things have to be done to change it. Now only members can create interesting games, which means people will quit and probably only members will stay (20 people?).
Well, according to the ladder page, there are currently 63 members in the 1v1 ladder. All have to be members in order to be a ladder league player. I'm pretty sure there are a few members that haven't joined the 1v1 ladder as one on one's aren't their thing. So that's roughly 70 active players remaining in the community(if your premonitions are correct.) There's also a highly active group of players that play nothing but 3v3 on big Poland, which I'm sure you've noticed. A large chunk of those players entered the 1v1 tourney for the free membership, although I'm rather sure that Tourney is gonna be won by either, Heyheuhei, pinkbladder(currently playing against hey) or slejer. So it's not going to do their small community much good as slejer isn't the most active of them and almost never hosts.
Anyyyywhoooo. I can't think of many people missing since the membership addition, that are less active now then they were before. Maybe one or two people, but I still see them here and there hosting exactly as they had before. Cept John Tack now hosts 16% instead of 0 ^_^
Go read the blog -- Fizzer made a very detailed post about why he chose to go with a membership model rather than ads. I believe he also stated that Warlight currently costs about $300 to host.
I do really doubt. Somebody said `best players have membership` oO
I`am quite nooby, but I met some people who are really good at 1-1 games - and they are not in membership clan.
Back to topic: If you are curious of Warlight just buy it.
btw. I`m looking for someone to create some tournaments.
