Re: Aprone, here is something that may change your life
I'm also not sure how much you know about programming Rori, but "an online demo with no downloads" would be a completely different project to what Aprone has created thus far, and would probably be a matter of rewriting the hole game (or at least most of the interface), in something like Flash, Java or unity web player, ie, far more time consuming than it would be worth, not to mention creating massive lag having to stream all the data for the sound files etc rather than just pull them up and play them off your machine.
If aprone provided "a mode where you had all the guns and could run around and shoot" well what would be the point in people buying the game? Personally, the system that you can play on the practice maps all you want offline, not to mention any campaigns you want to have a go at and get hold of, but need the account to play online seems more than fair enough to me, plus as Aaron said, although the gamer accounts do contribute to the server costs, they are chiefly an anti hacker device anyway.
If a person was in a country without Paypal I'm pretty sure Aprone would be happy to discuss some sort of alternative method of payment if necessary, indeed I wouldn't be surprised if Aprone has already done this.
