I find the idea of "pre-ordering" a free to play game laughable. Perhaps that is the only reason I am so upset about this news. The game has been marketed as a free to play since the announcement because that is SOE's modern business model for games. The idea you have to "invest" into the development phase does not sit well with me and I am disappointed this game is going to be a flop that many others have heralded. Ashame too because I was really excited about it.
