BioWare to offer 30 days FREE for those with a level 50 character.

Free Pets to all Legacy subscribers... more info in link above.

I don't agree with their presentation of the ranked warzone absence at all. As a software developer, I know that it would have taken hours/days effort to REMOVE part of a planned package from a specific roll out.

None of this affected me personally, but as a serious PvP'r I can feel bad for those that resubbed specifically for 1.2's ranked warzones.

In closing, while this is a serious error in resource management and a public relations nightmare, I do appreciate the gesture of 1 month free playtime.

Thank you.

Oh like they didn't do that in the first place... Warzones are bugged/ Flashpoints are bugged/ story line is bugged in many ways/ we didn't even have anything for the legacy they put in the game from the beginning. So yea it would have been better if they had put in a bugged patch rather than get alot of people to resub and then say oh no we are not putting it in yet.

Great job on the update. Your "new" team just ended the game. What a joke and waste of potential...

Wow, a lot of angst here. I would say push it out when it's ready but don't wait for the next big update to do it. Many are waiting for this aspect of the game. I for one will love it but it's not as game breaking for me as others as I enjoy many elements of the game.

When BW decided to pull out the ranked WZs out of the patch, a lot of people demanded free days because they subbed for the ranked WZs. So Bioware gave out a free mont for those players and now everyone is moaning again?

Its more like most people have not realized they were given a free month yet. Or they know but think that one free month doesnt equate to having the promised feature on time. I have no real vested interest in WZ pvp, but I can see how those people can still be annoyed even with the free time. The logic being they wouldnt trade $15 to not have what they consider a very important feature.
