Yes, we have that from our Chrome launch of the game. I'd suggest the PC or Steam version as a first pick for playerbase and performance, but it is pretty cool we were able to make the whole thing in the browser too. Definitely made the initial porting work to Android much easier... Also...

Have you tried AirMech? Disclaimer, it's my game, but I'm honestly curious what you think of our F2P model. Plus it's sort of like a Dota game except with direct control PLUS you can build and order units around, so what you said there makes me think you might like it.

But Jim in the context of this video is a character, it's not the real human Jim that must know there's good and bad implementations of F2P. It's a shame that doing videos like this just helps promote them (even bad press is good press) where the real way to affect change or damage EA is to...

Lots of valid points in the non-quoted parts, but I wanted to comment on this in particular since it's something we've had in mind from day 1. Our game is very cheap to operate when it comes to servers and infrastructure. I did not want to build one of those house of cards that needs 20 devs...

I see things differently. My very first job in the industry I was lucky enough to be hired by Epic Games shortly before they released Unreal Tournament. I was inspired by Epic's passion to make the game great, and double inspired by watching Tim and Mark do battle against our publisher to...

For what it's worth I completely agree with you. What I am doing to try to help is use the model of free to try in a fair way, in the hopes that people no longer tolerate shitty games that do those things. I think that pure rage at F2P hurts things because there's plenty of devs that feel the...

You sound pretty enraged about it. I would appreciate your critique of how AirMech fits what you describe. AirMech Prime for $20 lets you buy the game. The free part lets you try it out. This is a good thing for gamers...

Gamers need to embrace this model, not reject it. Why? Because big pubs are screwing you. They are pulling back and not giving you demos of games like they should anymore. I'm an oldschool dev. I remember Doom shareware. I remember demos. That's what F2P can be. Do not rail against F2P...
