Few minutes ago I read User agreement. In a part of payment I saw interesting thing.

(b) Periodic Payments Related to Accounts, Service and Content – NCSOFT may, in its sole and absolute discretion, require You to pay to establish or maintain any Account, to use any Service or to use any Content. You acknowledge that if You are required to do so, but do not, then NCSOFT may terminate Your Account under Section 3(b). You additionally acknowledge that NCSOFT may require such payments on any basis it deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion, including but not limited to any per-use or periodic basis (such as a number of hours, days or months). And You acknowledge that NCSOFT may, at its sole and absolute discretion, establish the timing and form in which such payment must be made, including but not limited to credit cards or online payment services.

Does it means that the game can change payment model to P2P or it is related only on big content updates that we must buy to install?

Oh say, that’s been in there since before Guild Wars launched, back in 2005. I guess I’d call it “standard verbiage” and I know that I’ve asked about it, and it’s a corporate thing, but should not be seen as any sort of mechanism to start monthly fees. The entire company is behind the “There is no monthly fee” concept for GW and GW2, and that is not going to change.

We made it VERY clear what we changed. And what we listed is the sum total of what was changed. Please see the Update Notes where you will find the full list of changes at the bottom of that post.
