Pay to Play???
I'm sry if this come out sounding like a newb. I had heard that Joint ops will become a pay to play game. Similar to Planetside or Everquest. So I was just wondering if anyone could verify this rumor. Since I am looking at buying the game but am in a clan that already has 13 servers and monthly dues, I just cant see having to pay to play the game aswell. Mainly because our clan could put up a server for us to game on easy.
I would just like to say thanks in advance for info on this topic

Nova caused the rumour but was an honest mistake lol
here's there statment:
A lot of talk is going on in the community right now about the 'Premium Service' sticker that is on the Joint Ops retail box. The sticker is a little misleading, so I would like to clear this topic up once and for all.
1/ Everything you get in the retail version of Joint Ops (Co-op, 150 player servers etc) is covered by the retail price of the game. We have no plans to charge for any of these features. Period.
2/ We are not currently running a premium service. That sticker is there to cover the possibility of a service being introduced sometime in the future.
3/ IF we start a premium service, it will be entirely optional and will cover additional features not in the game.
4/ The cost of this service would be minimal, and nowhere near the figures of $15 being bounced around right now.
I hope this clears this issue up for everyone.

LOL Chad we should call you speedy.

Yeah, but...
..the boasting of 150 player capability (*..) is a little misleading though. As of now - you do have to pay for the capability to host such a game.
