'If' the game goes F2P, What happens?

Googled it but i cant really use the info placed there to make useful in aspect of this game.

I'm not saying nor implying the game will go f2p but..

What happens if it does, do we get free content etc? whats been the norm for other games which have gone f2p like dc universe for example.

Seem's a little unfair that players are getting the the same content without having to pay the initial start up of £30 or whatever it is now...

Any speculation?

Who's Lord British? Is he one of the OD's? (Original Darths)

If you're serious...../facepalm

Wow, now I feel old.

They would severly ramp up the pay to own content patchs and add in a whack of microtransaction based equipment and items.

But Id so totally play this as F2P (and I refuse to play F2P games usually)
I probably will stop paying to play when my 6 month sub runs out though and cancel (unless F2P). Unless the lack of socialization, interaction issues are addressed and there is a verbal commitment that all future exansions will have much steeper leveling curves.

Right now SW:TOR is a top of the line, amazing single player game with some multiplayer content but completely misses the boat on the MMORPG aspects of interaction and socialization.

And EA (For me Bioware stopped existing when Drew Left along with all the original developers) has said nothing at all that hints at fixing the issue. Instead its all been guild junk and empty non commital promises.

Giving guilds stuff doesnt fix the anti socialization and lack of interaction as they already interact with each other. You got a million 10 person groups interaction with their 10 person cliques and no one interaction outside of the clique. THATS THE ISSUE AND PROBLEM! When you can get those player to shut off vent, turn on game chat, and take part in the community WITH OUT demands on the people to join the guild, then you will be addressing the real problems at hand. ONLY THEN.

So what happens when the games goes F2P is we might actually get more content releases each week (because thats how EA would make its money rather then its monthly sobs) and this single player RPG would flourish to very amazing and grand heights that it was predicted to hit as a MMORPG but came up short on.

Im NOT a fan of F2P, but right now, based on what ive seen and all Ive heard going forward, F2P might actually be best thing for this title.

I just dont see many people sticking to the paid subscription model past the 1 year mark for the current design.

Did I hurt someone's mangina?

Richard "Lord British" Garriott, creator of the legendary Ultima series, one of the first and greatest PC RPGs ever created in the western market.

Without Ultima and Ultima Online (its MMO offspring), there would be no Diablo, no WoW and certainly none of the modern day Western RPGs you enjoy playing now.

Ah. Both those games, if I got my dates correct, came out before I was really allowed to play video games.

Never understood some folks' inability to play more than one game. How about playing SWTOR AND Diablo III?

Why all the need to be in just one game? I guess if you feel you have to be playing the same thing all the time to stay "competitive" or some other such stuff, then I get it.

But I don't get it
