I would happily pay a flat fee for the game. However, EA knows they can make more money with this tiered system, so here we are. If they want to offer me 70% of the game for free, and 100% of the game for $300, I know which one I'm more likely to pick.
They take cheapskates like me into consideration when designing how to maximize their profits, so I'm not going to lose much sleep over not giving ($100 million in TSTO profits) EA enough of my money.
if you pay $30 , which isn't much money if you are playing the game constantly., you can get a lot of content. $300 is a mass over exaggeration...
It is definitely not an over exaggeration. Tell me, have you added up the amount of donuts it takes for all of the items? This is from a day 1 player through today. There are numerous that were limited time in addition to all of the current permanent items. It is a completely valid point to want to have everything the game offers as there are several players on the forums that do. There are people that have already bought 3 boatloads.
While the majority of people fit in (that buy donuts) fall within $1-$100 range, there are many on the forums that jump that up past $200.
Obviously everyone has their reasons for spending money, but as it was pointed out earlier - people can spend their money if they want on this game - or they don't have to spend a buck - neither should be criticized for their choice.
