I play Albatross 18 because I don't have a music game to play online anymore, and many of the versions are getting shut down because people aren't playing and companies aren't having it updated. The online gaming universe is starting to contract due to high competition so only the profitable ones are staying. Guess that proves that the F2P model will tend to the recycling of games if they fall out of favor so if you want your game to stay, you better use some of the P2P features. |
International version was majority P2P, with some free songs and gem based songs and avatars. It died because people lost interest because they decided to cut international support for songs and charts and no one really wanted to play anymore as there weren't any worthwhile updates and it was filled with hackers (which eventually died) and people that only wanted to play the same 10 songs.
