However thier game play style (hand to hand and SvS, etc) leaves a bit to be desired <yawn>, and the "world/player based economy" makes it a level of MMO many want to avoid (Potco's cheaper, and free play is 1000% better than POTBS's 14day guest pass).

Can POTCO use more content? ABSOLUTELY!!!!
Should they offer more for free? They already offer more than any of thier competitors, why should they?
Of course we all know the game is almost a year old but we need to remember that more things will come.
I'll give you an example.

Toontown started off having no cog Hqs what-so-ever and all the playgrounds except Acorn Acres and Goofy's Speedway.
Now if you look at it today it's grown quite a lot.

Imagine what POTCO will look like in two to three years. I can imagine three story quests, at least fifty new enemies, the level caps up, and more.
It all takes time. Also remember POTCO released before POTBS and there's news that it was released fast because it wanted to get more members than POTBS. If POTBS came out sooner, than that means less $ for POTCO/disney.

Nothing good ever comes out of rushing things!

As far as enough things for free playing members I think it should be lowered. I can get about half from free access. If I reach level 40 then I can just end my subscribition until more things come out and still be entertained.
Well you heard it, in my opinion the free access stuff should be lowered! Just my opinion. Don't they get enough anyways?
