I pay by yearly subscription - I am on enough to make it worth while and then I don't have to worry about getting on and being in basic mode.

As of now, I use game cards. Besides going to the store every month or two, I don't have to buy a full membership or use a credit card. They are also very handy.

Well, I'm not paying RIGHT now for the game, but I have for a long time before. I usually bought month to month but then moved to 6 months.

It is worth the extra money to me to just have it deducted from my checking.. that way my pirates are always there and unlimited and I don't have to worry about buying cards. I have a good job, so money is not that big of an issue.

I figured out the Month-To-Moth deal is the best being $60 a year which is much less than the "Best Deal" me and my brother are gonna split the difference on our account, he plays when I'm not on and vice-versa.

Just thought I would throw this out there. One month is $9.95, meaning for a year the price is $119.40. The 6 month one is $49.95, meaning for a year the price is $99.90. The year price is $79.95. So, the year deal is the best for a year, as it is saving you $39.45 for 12 one month deals, and $19.95 for 2 six month deals.

Games that sell different memberships tend to do this. The monthly deal, if a player doesn't expect to be there long term. The half-year deal, if a player doesn't wanna be there the entire year. And finally, the year deal - for players that want to stay longer. The year deal does make them more money, since it is guaranteed that they will stay a year, but it is still cheaper than buying 12 one month, or 2 six month deals.

I don't know the game card price, I just went off of the site. I am assuming its the same price, if not, just throwing that out there.
