I got an email a few minutes ago about becoming a POTC Online founder; but a fee is involved. I'm confused if the monthly fee is to be a founder or if the monthly fee is to play? :confused:

I got the same E-mail, I thought it was going to be free. I guess I was wrong.

Hmm.. I think disney should lay off all the expensive Games.
Yes, its fun and all...
But sticking to VMK is what i'll do if everything else is "Not Free"

Thanks for the posts, guys. Has anyone else gotten this message?

I bet you can play free just wont get the nice, sweet things that players who pay get.

I heard somewhere else that you'd be able to play for free but you won't have unlimited access and you'll have adds everywhere..
I like this game very much but I don't know if I'll pay for it.

Right now, it says I have unlimited access, but I don't think I would pay to play.

Does Disney need that much more money? :confused:Yeah I see how the creators & producers need to be paid, but still...

I believe there will be 2 versions of the game. One version that will be free you will have limited access and will feature ads. The limited version will I believe limit you from going to certain Islands and you wont be able to level up as high as other players that pay. The other version you will have unlimited access to the game and will not have ads but you will have to pay the $9.95 every month.

I really like this game I have the beta key to play however I don't know if I play enough for me to pay and for it to be worth it. I will probably just play on the free version. To answer your question about disney needing money every company is out to make money disney is no different ;) Just be glad you only have to pay $9.95 unlike World of Warcraft that is like $16.00 per month.

They have stated a long time ago that it's going to be a pay to play game.



There are 2 versions though. But I'm for sure getting the pay to play version.

So everyone thinks it will be like Toontown, You can get in for free but if you want to do other things you have to pay for it. I'm so glad VMK is free.
