Namco Bandai has decided not to discuss details of Ace Combat Infinity's monetisation model due to the negativity towards free-to-play, instead opting to let players judge the game for themselves by participating in a worldwide beta test later this year. "We actually tried to explain the monetisation and how it works at first, but it made people confused and some people just said negative things because they didn't understand the whole of the game," project lead Kazutoki Kono told VideoGamer, discussing the free-to-play model of the upcoming dogfighter. "That's why we actually stopped saying the details of it and are right now asking the players and media to try out the beta and see how it actually works as a game. Then we finally can get deeper into the details of the monetisation explanations."
