Act 3 – MMO Fallout

Hellgate: Global Act 3 And Tokyo Are Now Completely Free

One of the issues that comes with working alone on my website is that occasionally I don’t come across news on games that are not frequently reported on until later. MUCH later in fact. Ever since Hellgate Global first reluanched under T3Fun, I’ve given an update on ticket prices every year or so. Tickets to Act 3 and the Tokyo Expansion were available for purchase on the cash shop for a combined total of approximately $7, while players could purchase and then sell them on the marketplace, making it entirely possible to play Hellgate’s content without paying a dime.

Granted, that alternative became extremely expensive. The Act 3 ticket was around 1.8 million palladium with the Tokyo expansion somewhere around 1 million last I checked in, making them more economical to just buy from the cash shop. In July 2012, however, T3Fun updated the game to make the tickets completely free:

As the forces of Hell ever grow stronger, more and more recruits are needed every day to help stave off the impending demon invasion of our world. Starting on July 5, 2012 (after regular server maintenance), the Act 3 and Tokyo Entrance Tickets will be given to all players at no charge.

So if you’ve been holding off playing Hellgate: Global because of having to pay for Act 3 and Tokyo, the good news is that you can pick up both tickets at the Greenwich Headquarters (first location) completely free.

Making Memories: Low Cost Tickets Round Trip

At one point, as shown above, you were able to select from a huge supply of Act 3 tickets on Hellgate: Global. Nowadays you’re lucky if there are even any on the marketplace, and the prices above are just a fraction of how much they’ll cost you.

Hellgate Global: Status Update and Ticket Prices

Back in July, I talked about how players can get access to Hellgate Global’s Act 3 ticket and Tokyo expansion without paying a dime by paying for the tickets on the in-game auction house. At the time, the tickets only cost a few hundred thousand palladium. In September, I updated the post with another update: The prices for act 3 tickets amounted to around 450,000 palladium, with the Tokyo ticket around half of that.

I checked in on the ticket prices, and not only have prices skyrocketed, the amount of available tickets has gone down to just a few choices. I checked the auction house at 7:30pm on February 1st and found only one Act 3 ticket on sale and a handful of Tokyo expansion tickets on sale. At these prices, it might be easier to just throw down the seven dollars in real cash to buy the tickets from the cash shop.
