30€ just like TMUF - ok :)
Everything less than that: perfect :D
@trackmaniack: Why should he know that? :lol:
I disagree. In order to provide Nadeo with the income they need to A) recoup the costs of MAKING Maniaplanet and B) to provide fairly continuous, good-quality updates, patches, etc., the price of the game may need to be upped some.

And why should he know it? Cuz my name IS Trackmaniack. Doy. :P

When TM² comes out, it will only contain 1 environment.
I don't think Nadeo will ask €50 for that.
On the other hand, other racegames contain 1 environment too, and do cost that much....

Somewhere in the interview with TM actu, just when the cut comes, at 5.48 min, Hylis seems to announce there will be only one environment in the initial release (mono environnement).

$30 kinda okay... (I got TMU for $10 discounted... when it was TMUF.. so only 2 years racing in TMF)
Considering also the extra cost (including separate environments and more content)
should be okay...(From my view I'm relating the inital price to the Starter pack in World and the environments and other stuff profiting though micro transaction)
And hopefully there's not going to be an issue about rammers... (That's one of the many problems in the NFS World Forums, and also the starter pack issue...)

note: The things I learned in TMF with apex and minor mistakes and stuff... applies well with NFS World...


add-on: sighs... forgot to update this profile's siggy and avatar... meh

We know all this already, WiiD...and it's not simply Ubisoft's money-grubbing that means there won't be a free version...it's just not fiscally sound. Nadeo can't afford to program new games each time and then release them for free...even under Ubi's banner.

Every three to five month will be a new one released as DLC. The price is not given by Ubisoft at the moment but we expect 15 to 20 € per package

from gamestar

and Hylis

the price of each title will be independent. You can see this as smaller game release more often. The goal is to make a continuous release. If we release three environment in the year, at 19€90 each for example, then it would make you pay 59€70 each year for the three different environments and getting at the same time the online and engine evolution. And if you prefer only TM² and QM, for example, you can take only two and it will cost you less.

so thats why I think it will be 19,90€

Your taking a quote out of its context. (and repeat it everywhere)
"at 19€90 each for example" is not a confirmation, so please don't state that, it is confusing.
