Apparently someone found a file in the game saying we'd need to buy online cash with real money for online play. Found it in an XML file... Its a rumor as of right now but is dissapointing if true...
I'm not surprised one bit. I expected them to do microtransactions. They'll make a fortune. Nobody is going to "need" to buy anything, though, and it won't be "pay to win." I don't like microtransactions, but they aren't usually that big of a deal.
There's a 99% chance that, "This means that unless you drop some real world cash you will find it extremely hard to get things," is hyperbolic nonsense. And even if it isn't, there's so much superficial useless crap that can be purchased that they could make it this way without ever affecting the competitive side of things, anyway.
