When it told me I had to update to keep playing. :P

same as me, except i started in beta times, it took me a month, but im still kinda ****ed that vmk is closing, but this is better!

I love the game and hated basic, I couldn't do anything that I wanted!!:piratewheelgo2:

Uh... since November 1st.

Larkija, do you still have Basic Access? Or did you get unlimited on November 1st?

I still have basic access.
I really don't care yet, but I really want to get Unlimited soon.

'bout 45 minutes into my frrst session (oct 31, 2007) I upgraded.

It took me about 4 hours of total game time. When I realized I wasn't really going to get anywhere as a basic member, I ponied up the dough, and have been a plundering fool ever since. I have enjoyed the quests and I like working toward mastering all the weapons. I also can't help the urge to get to level 40. Lets just say I am a wee bit goal orientated.:mybadki6:

about a week then purchase the year, still playin

i played for maybe around 2 weeks then i am like i can't take it anymore so i got it but i think its so worth it but still anyway if i didnt get it i would have not just got my grenades today yay me lol

Well I said "Went straight to unlimited" when that's not exactly the case. My boyfriend and I played for a few hours one night and decided it's fun so we went unlimited that same night. Should have a "within a day" option.

I played for four days, I think it was. I ended up buying a sub before the "full screen" option wore off.

I was hooked in 4 days time, and I was debating which plan to get for the last two of those days before upgrading to monthly access (college student budget :piratear:).

i wish i at least played vmk for a year
