I'll assume you meant that even though its not freemium, that it looks freemium rather than that it is freemium. It is definitely premium just in case. I'm a bit unsure as to how the menu screams freemium to be honest because nowhere is there any currency to be seen. It just looks detailed and visual to me and as though it has a solid progression system in the game which xp and levelling up earns for you rather than any kind of currency or iap or anything else. Normally an indicator of freemium would be a couple of currencies up top but, again, no currency at all is there. And a star system, I dunno, that seems pretty normal and used to be a big part of games in the past. Without being a currency system they used to be a lock system or a rating system which is what they strongly appear to be there. It's also worth noting that the lack of any currency at all (or at least none visible in anything so far) carries an implication of its own. What that is, I cant say for sure just yet because its unclear what it means exactly but they have changed something pretty big in regards to iap and pricing structure of a game that they'll announce at E3. There's a few rumours that it means no iap at all to go with a once off premium purchase price. Unconfirmed though so don't take it as such. It looks very possible though. But being premium, not freemium, is absolutely confirmed. Also, it won't be out before E3 (June 10-12). What we are seeing in videos is not the Gold Master release. It is still officially in development. So there is a lot of changes and tweaks (capital "i" for example) to be applied yet. How long after that is unclear but soon after seems to apply but "summer" is the official word, early summer (second half of June, first half of July) seems the target. And yeah, I agree with you, it looks like a huge improvement that should turn out fantastic. Its worth noting the team behind would be the same one responsible for the NOVA series. They did a pretty fantastic job on them, NOVA 3 in particular in my opinion, last time around so I have pretty high expectations of them this time.
Got some new news for you guys. "MC5 released this summer...

I am not baying that game if it's not playable offline. So all games now will require Internet, that's a joke. I am good with mc4 They have taken years to make that game and they already screw it up
On the stream they said there would be no currencies etc, just the upfront payment and then the content is unlockable.
It will not be charged for dlc. As of right now, the downloadable content will be free after the initial purchase of the game. That doesn't exclude the possibility of some at a later stage but currently the available dlc will not have an associated charge and the stuff that will be added with updates has no plans for it either. There is no payment structure in the game beyond the day one premium price. That's it. They are rank/xp locked in this one. As are the attachments.
The multiplayer is sounding pretty nice right now, but idk about showing peoples health next to their name. Also seems like it would be impossible for people to snipe with out being found.
lmao Where did you find that? I don't know how I feel about people seeing my health. It should be a perk or something like that instead.
