No catches, no gimmics, no conditions, just free-to-play all the time with unlimited playthrough of campaign and multiplayer. Geeze, I'll give it a try but plenty of people should be telling someone in the PA camp that this gimmic stuff just needs to be thrown out the window and just make money off aircraft and skins. I don't care if I have to by aircraft and skins, but I downright get pee'd off when I am restricted from gameplay just because of a stupid gauge that never seems to refill fast enough. And I have never heard of a game that restricts campaign to only one playthrough. What a joke. Anyway, that is my rant done for the week. Ahh, I feel better with all that off my chest. Whilst I agree with you wholeheartedly, on the other hand, asking for a F2P to be entirely free is a utopia we will sadly never get.

Unfortunately, my excitement for Infinity too cooled down, especially with this restriction to the campaign mode. I'm not a fan of multi either way, so I'd be storming the campaign more than anything else. If I am restricted to playing the game mode I want most only once, then... Shame on them. I have nothing else to add.

Let's hope Ace Combat doesn't die with Infinity. I want a proper return to Strangereal some day, and I hope Infinity succeeds in a way that will allow the franchise to return to the roots we've all been longing for.
