Valve: “Dota 2 will be Free-To-Play - With a twist”
Gabe Newell says on what Dota 2 is to become: “We’re trying to figure out ways so that people who are more valuable to everybody else [are] recognized and accommodated. We all know people where if they’re playing we want to play, and there are other people where if they’re playing we would [rather] be on the other side of the planet. It’s just a question of coming up with mechanisms that recognize and reward people who are doing things that are valuable to other groups of people.”
It would appear that Newell wants to implement a reward system that may cut prices or make the game free-to-play for players that are helpful and considerate, or perhaps punish bad players by hitting them with charges to keep them from playing the game improperly. Your rating on Steam may also factor into your price.
“So, in practice, a really likable person in our community should get DOTA 2 for free, because of past behaviour in Team Fortress 2. Now, a real jerk that annoys everyone, they can still play, but a game is full price and they have to pay an extra hundred dollars if they want voice.”
