You pay for hours, if you lay down 15$ you get 800 hours of playing time.
The only reason I'm however not playing it is because you can't fucking spawn at friends.
wait are you sure? see the way i was reading it was that you paid for a months subscription(from X date to X date, typically 30 days of time), not for a months worth of hours(i did see people saying this on the forums, but i assumed they were just stupid). So its a monthly recurring payment, or else what in the fuck would be the point in a subscription? like why would you bother calling it that and having a system set up like that if you can purchase a literal fuck ton of hours in lump.
See i get that you are purchasing 30 days, or 720 hours of time, but what i mean is, once the month is up, do these points immediately expire? unlike a token, which would just give you a lump of time added permanently. I think im just confusing myself, i just dont understand the subscription model if you can purchase a time token for that much time, why bother with a recurring payment plan?
EDIT: Ooookay, so i think i figured it out, and im honestly not sure why in the hell you would want a sub at all honestly, a big waste of money, as you lose all that time while not playing. Its also still way too fucking expensive for what it is.
