| Quote: | Developed by DICE, creators of the popular Battlefield franchise, Battlefield Heroes--which looks similar to Valve's Team Fortress 2--is the first game announced for Electronic Arts' new Play 4 Free business model.
Play 4 Free, announced today at the Digital, Life, Design Conference in Munich, is a new Web-based business model that EA plans to generate revenue with using in-game advertising and microtransactions. EA already offers FIFA Online as a free download in Korea, with a built-in system of micropayments that generate income for the company.
While details on the game are scant so far, EA says that the gameplay in Heroes, "caters to players of all skill levels…gamers can spend hours building up their characters and conquering the world." |
This is kind-of exciting, provided the ads don't slow down the game.
