Kazutoki Kono put out a bunch of Tweets about Infinity. Most of it was info we already knew, but someone at the forum we won't mention offered a translation of the important ones: It's a free download. The free basic sortie fuel system is what's used to buy items, there is no direct sale of either real aircraft or special weapons, and if you go through the game without buying anything you can still carry on unlocking things. So, we have plans to sell the sortie fuel system as a pack, but no plans to sell real fighters or special weapons. We came to this conclusion during the internal beta testing. Furthermore as this is a beta test, and though we have lots of plans no matter what, I want to reach out to new players too this time, I think it'd be nice if you would invite your friends to play together, as we've recognized that levels which are problematic for them are a critical area. The numbered campaign missions at the time of release will be, as it has always been, a way to get beginners introduced and let them learn to like the gameplay while soaking in the world, and thinking of fans who have come to support the game, we plan to make the first time around you play the game will be free and without charge. That info is what you should take out of this.
