When signing up for Planetside 2, you don't have to pay to play the game. However, you can pay real money to the game to get ingame money. Also, if you want a subscription to access more things, you have to pay. The ingame money can be used to buy weapons, armour, bundles etc. However, some game players don't agree with ingame currency and shops, this is because people who are rich could get more weapons even if they're bad at the game and win, and those who cant afford to buy things and are good at the game, may lose against them.
