 | SWTOR goes F2P and P2W - August 2, 2012, 8:34 am |  | |  |

 | SWTOR is implementing a "free to play" option that enables players to play to level cap (50 as of this announcement) without a monthly subscription. However, they are not eliminating the monthly fee altogether, and those who remain subscribed will get a special unique currency deposited each cycle that can be used to buy gear (pay to win), those who don't pay the subscription will be subject to limitations, those who bought the Special Ed. will receive extra currency.
Official details can be found here:

I may come back and level some more characters if the limitations of the F2P model don't kill my erection for this revelation. You noobs better join me this time.
Also, off topic, but still relevant:
Guild Wars 2 - August 28
WoW: Mists of Pandaria - September 28

Run the tool, submit your info, and if you get chosen, keep your mouth shut there's an NDA.
This MMO might be a breath of fresh air as Arenanet has taken a different direction away from WoW's style (whereas SWTOR, RIFT, and other MMO's copy WoW's style).
Once this game is released, you will only have to buy it once (until expansions are made). There is no monthly subscription. (I do not know if they'll be using an item mall for extra revenue or not).
Guild Wars 1 kind of sucked and Arenanet knows it, but this one looks like they made a serious effort to fix their own mistakes as well as that of every WoW clone on the market, give it a chance if it's your style of game. | |

Quoted from email:
Greetings,
Thank you for participating in the Pre-Launch Guild Program for Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Please visit your guild page to see if your guild was assigned to a server. When Early Game Access begins, server assignments will also be highlighted on the in-game server selection screen with a guild flag.
If your guild was assigned a server, you'll have an in-game invitation waiting when you join the assigned server. This invite will expire on 1/2/2012 at 11:59 PM CST. If you haven't accepted the invite by then, you'll need to contact the guild leader or officers in-game for an invite. We encourage you to visit your guild page in order to save any information you'd like to keep before the above date.
If you have any questions, please read the Guilds FAQ or contact Customer Service at http://www.swtor.com/support
May the Force be with you,
The Star Wars: The Old Republic Team | |
