Hmm , I believe 14.95 is fairly standard for most online games, except they make you pay for the box first before you can even try.

your paying your $15 a month for the privelege to play against other dweebs on the internet.  the game itself is FREE.  Infact some people like to joust on the forum that is FREE also.

If I don't get at least one nasty PM or vox rant a month  I will be looking for a price reduction.  

BTW  you can't cheat at this game either  :aok

This is some of the cheapest entertainment you can get, what do you pay for a move
7 or 8 bucks, (dollars), bowling, 3 or 4 dollars a line, golf 30 and up depending where you play,
here 3 hour 50 cents, 12 hour if you play all day 50 cents.
you do the math.
This is the best deal you could ever get.

Yep.  Other than the F2P MMO's, virtually every major P2P MMO features not only a $14.95 monthly charge but also the purchose of the retail box game for an additional $49.99 or sometimes more (if you purchase special/collector editions).  The only major MMO's that don't require a box purchase are the ones that are failing like Warhammer Online.

So for $14.95, you not only get to play online in AH but you also get the game for free.  Sure, you might think that offline AH has nothing to offer but with the addition of the mission editor and the myriad of offline missions already created by the community, the $14.95 you pay for AH is probably one of the best gaming values one can find.

Just consider yourself lucky you didn't play AW in the very early years when it was hourly and sometimes paying $12 an hour just to play.

The way I see it is your not paying 15$ per month, your paying .50$ a day!

To answer a question that came up earlier yes I believe you can have the account set so you have to call in the payment on the CC.  If I recall correctly the last time I was on the phone with Skuzzy he asked me that.


Which reminds me I owe the folks at HTC a call tomorrow. :)
