50 million dollar investment to pay off is quite risky. Let's hope it pays off. Nerd math time! 1,000,000 accounts at $50 for standard box = 50 million. If they sell 1,000,000 copies of the game, they will have made the money back. That's best case scenario. So let's hedge the bet. 500,000 accounts would be 25 million. Then after the 30 days are up if 250,000 of the players pay the six month deal that would get another 15 million. If the other 250,000 players just buy one month they would get another 3.7 million. Let's hope the game sells really well, and a lot of people renew. It's in our best interest to keep Trion in the black!
