bueno como ya esperaba DC UNIVERSE se cambia al modo F2P que esta de moda xD, aca les va la noticia:
If those pesky subscription fees have been keeping you from getting your super hero on in DC Universe Online, you’ll be happy to know that Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) today announced a new free-to-play business model for the game.
Beginning late October, players will be able to download and access DCUO for free on both the PS3 and PC. As part of this transition, SOE is introducing three new access levels to the game: Free, Premium and Legendary. All three levels will provide access to open world gameplay and missions, general game updates and fixes to the game, with each level offering different game options and benefits.
“When we launched DC Universe Online, we introduced a very different brand of massive online game driven by fast action combat to PC and PS3™gamers and with that, we discovered a new type of online gamer,” said John Smedley, President, Sony Online Entertainment. “We’ve listened to our community, and we’ve determined that the free-to-play model is the best fit for DC Universe Online.”
Smedley added, “Our philosophy embraces learning from our experience and as a pioneer in the free-to-play space with proven successful games like Free Realms and Clone Wars Adventures, we believe this new model will expand the DCUO experience and offer more options that cater to every type of player so they can play the game in a way that fits them.”
All three levels provide access to the current game, but allow differing tiers of convenience and flexibility. The levels are:
• Free: New players will now have access to the current gameplay in DC Universe Online (including Gotham City, Metropolis, and all current raids and alerts), with the ability to create two characters, join a league and many other benefits. Free level players will be able to purchase downloadable game packs/updates, additional character slots, powers and more through microtransactions.
• Premium: Any player who has spent at least $5 USD (including former paid subscribers and new players who have purchased $5 of in-game items) will qualify for the Premium access level. Premium level players will have more benefits available to them than the Free level player, including additional character slots, additional inventory slots, and higher cash limits. Downloadable adventure packs, additional character slots, and more can be purchased in-game.
• Legendary: Maximum features and benefits are included at this level. Loaded with enhanced additional features, Legendary access will be available for a $14.99 USD monthly fee and includes all DLC packs at no cost, more than 15 character slots, more than 80 inventory slots, the ability to form unrestricted-sized leagues, and many other benefits.
y en español:
Sony Online Entertainment ha anunciado que DC Universe Online será gratuito a partir de octubre.
Esto afectará tanto a los usuarios de PlayStation 3 y PC, que podrán descargarse el juego de forma totalmente gratuita y jugar sin necesidad de suscripciones.
Habrá tres tipos distintos de cuentas: la gratuita permitirá crearse dos personajes, acceder a todas las mazmorras y comprar contenido descargable y otros beneficios mediante transacciones. La premium será para quienes hayan gastado al menos cinco dólares en contenido para el juego o hayan pagado alguna suscripción previamente. Estos usuarios podrán crearse más personajes, tendrán más espacio en su inventario y sus límites monetarios serán mayores que los que tengan una cuenta gratuita.
Por último está la suscripción legendaria, que por 15 dólares mensuales (unos 11 euros al cambio) permitirá crear 15 personajes, tendrán todos los contenidos descargables sin coste adicional y otros beneficios.
