  I believe the unlimited currency is the currency cap (i.e. how much you can hold).

  Anyway, it looks like there is no bonus for people who paid $50 for the game initially.

      Why do you insist on typing "fix'd" when you could hit the same number of keystrokes to type "fixed" correctly and avoid looking like a massive retard?

      Kids these days… shakes fist.

        "Fix'd" sounds cooler than "Fixed"

  I hear the game is stupidly balanced… Speedsters are way too powerful. I think that sounds pretty realistic really, they would just run rings around others.

  I played this, good game but couldn't stomach being charged 5 bucks more a month to play then Americans, haven't been back since, but I think I'll be giving it another go, thanks for the heads up.

  Edit: almost went back recently seeing the new lower prices for Aussies.

    Well actually since you use to subscribe you get a premuim account forever (well atleast the game life) :)

        Not really. You paid $50 for the game (I did too) and you get the same amount of content as people who will pay $5.

    Not sure this is a deal strictly speaking but cheers for the post regardless.

    The AU 'Lower price' is still ~$2 more expensive than the American USD price. New Zealand is listed at $14.99 as well but I can't tell if that was in USD or NZD (it was USD when I last checked months ago).

    Regardless, I un-subscribed in the first month due to the (~$5) higher AU pricing which Sony Online Entertainment never satisfactorily explained. I would have stayed and supported the game for $15 USD though.

    Freemium ("Free to Play / F2P") for DCUO? Yep, I'll go back and take another look - with City of Heroes and Champions Online also on similar payment models all the superhero MMO's are now easily accessible with optional spend.
