Where is the dev post about possible station cash in PS1

Because I might buy Alpha Squad and use the station cash on PS1 haha.

Needs to be a bit more set in stone before I do.

Did a DEV post about that? I thought it was just assumed that there will be one since Smed said they are going to make it Free-to-Play.

No one ever said anything about SC in PS1.

I think http://www.pcgamesn.com/article/plan...oing-free-play is what you're referring to,

Concerned about the form a free-to-play Planetside might take? Don’t be. Smedley has waxed complimentary recently about the payment model of League of Legends, the MOBA with the most inoffensive and respectful free-to-play system to date.

But I don't think anyone has actually said anything about PS1 having a cash shop. There's a snowball's chance in hell, IMO.

Oh, there will be a cash shop. That is what they did to Vanguard, PlanetSide's RPG 'peer'. Population spiked when it went F2P, cash shopped to death, and now it is back to being a minor notch in the SOE belt scheduled for redaction sometime in late 2013.

Might be worth getting with that deal anyway.

Id like to point out who got that intel out of Smed. Just click the articles link to the tweet. :P
