There is a load of rooms designed so that people who used cash or are higher levels cannot join. Also, you get stuffforgets of cash when you level up. Grenades can also be awarded randomly. In other words, buying stuff is not even the best option and you are over reacting, saying that you MUST pay $80 just to "play well"
I haven't bought jack stuff with real money and I do decently, even against purchased weapons. I also have not seen in 2 years of playing a single person using a G-Coin armor set. Also, you get around 250 bonus credits as a bonus per game. You can buy weapons and do well without paying anything. If you are so bad you insist on saying it isimpossible to play without selling your soul, then don't bitch about it and whine how "it is inoperable without buying this and that"

Except you forgot to mention some major F2P setbacks, one of them being the ability to add friends.

Except you ignored
The total cost to get access to everything for each player is a minimum of $5.

Compare that to the previous retail price, and how you couldn't play at all without paying the full price. Besides, the setbacks are really minor, and don't diminish gameplay that much, if at all.

lol

Thousands of downloadable games, constant sales, community integration, cloud storage, holiday promos; where else can you get that in one place?

Let's hear your reasons why it's bad, though they'll be bullstuff because you literally hate everything.

It's not inoperable, it's just unfair and the autosort doesn't account for gear which often makes the teams stacked.

Also of course you don't see someone playing with a G-Coin armor set because it doesn't appear on the combat icon.

I didn't say, "play well" either. I said to perform well competitively, which means that you have the same chances to win as everyone else and it's purely based on skill. Is that too much to ask for a fps game?
