30 free days to make up for ranked warzones not being ready...

A free month to anyone with a level 50.

And now, the free month has been extended to anyone who's attained Legacy 6.

They're really trying to do right by the customer base and I'm very impressed with these measures. MMOs just don't do that to try and make up for bugs, mess-ups or other things.

I'll happily let my sub auto-renew in a few weeks.

Yeah I'm pretty happy about the 30 days, I was not expecting that at all.
...they'd never come to see me in this dive, where bikers stare at cowboys, who are laughing at the hippies, who are praying they'll get out of here alive...

I wonder what kind of strings they had to pull to get EA management to let them do it.

These are millions of dollars worth of subscriptions they are giving us for free, but the haters and Guild Wars fanbois will always find a way to spin it "they are desperate" "this is worse than wow annual pass" "they do it because the game is dying"

all this new content has still not remedied that problem of pop drops in a lot of servers. i don't understand how some people don't see it... its an obvious attempt to retain subs. theyre also allowing a free week for retuning players to re-sub. already offering free play and masking it with another reason is an obvious act of desperation.

i like the game and i dont want it to die, but im trying to be realistic and call it what is. if theyre losing people then bring on FP/OP finder sooner than later.

Amen to the OP. And the people complaining about this should be ashamed. It's refreshing to see a company value their customers.

they really shouldnt have given in to all the whiners on these forums...why not just give everybody everything? the same people who were crying about the free 30 days,are going to be the first ones to jump ship for another game in the next month or 2. blizzard certainly never did this,and nobody left..bioware should take note of that.
