I think non-members be able to..

Personally, I think that non-paying members should be able to travel across a select number of worlds-- but not ALL worlds. What do you guys think?

I think if you were able to travel all over the spiral without a membership, you would bypass the main reason to get a membership. Most of the membership perks are complete nonsense aside from the ability to go wherever you want. Non-members get plenty of roaming space without paying in Wizard City. The reason zones cost such a ludacris amount is because KI wants to encourage players to get a membership.

I think all of Wizard City, including Colossus Blvd should be free to play. The game has grown so much since then, at least this would give new players a chance to experience a little more of the game.

Someone on another forum suggested the entire game be opened to all players for a limited time on Christmas. I like the idea, but don't particularly like it on Christmas - perhaps on a US Federal Holiday (Labor Day, Thanksgiving, President's Day). It would give F2P/Crowns players the option to see what is coming, encourage memberships, and probably generate some enthusiasm for the game.

I agree with Adam. If non-members were able to everywhere, that would defeat the purpose of a membership. However, I do think it would be nice if they could at least be able to finish Cyclops Lane and Firecat Alley.

I agree that all of wizard city should be open. Right now, the little bit that's open isn't much of a demo and while a number of people get hooked on the game with what's available, a lot more would be hooked if the first restricted spot was Krok.

And I also think that it should be possible to buy zones even though you also have a membership. That way, if something happened to your cash flow, and you had to drop your membership, at least you could still play as long as you had also bought zones when you had money to do so.

I would rather see all of WC to be F2P than this. WC makes a LOT more sense than small bits of all the worlds

Agreed! All of Wizard City should be freely available.
