EA have reported some interesting stats from their free-to-play Battlefield Heroes that launched earlier this summer. So far one and a half million players from 133 countries have answered the call of duty and among those who choose to buy equipment and clothes for the avatars the average spending is a whopping 20 dollars.While it most likely isn't more than a fraction of the 1.5 million players who have chosen to buy these extras it still supports the notion the business model holds up.
