Price of New Expansion Pack

the survey made no sense. It was offering $10 for all the content + 90 days free game time. They would lose money by doing that.

If thats the case why not give the content out for free?

The survey had many different packages, not just that one. But since EA/BioWare is already thinking about going f2p, this would just be the first step into that direction. They had given some of us already re free month, to keep us playing. I guess the subs have dropped since last time we got any numbers, and i doubt patch 1.3 will change much on that. So, by givin a minor expansion with 90 days game time, would mean they can claim for that time people playing the game (and I think it might actually work, because some would return to try that out).

facepalm... no you still don't get it. Not to mention they have already said the planet Makeb and the extra levels would be free and given in regular updates.

Has Bioware even mentioned an expansion anytime soon?

I imagine the first expansion pack would be in 2013, unless they are planning on rushing it which, in my opinion, is a very bad mistake considering how the expansion may have the potential to save the game if they introduce enough content.

Personally, I'd like to see more social content like cantinas where you can do things, pod racing, parties and decorating your ship... stuff like that would really pull this game up (for me anyway).

Guess I have missed that, would you be so kind and provide a link to where I can find that it will be free?

no charge! free! nadda! nothing

our 15 month sub fee will be all we are going to pay for this game. That's how they have wanted to do it from the beginning. 15 dollars a month from a mill + people is MORE than enough to fund this game for new content. James Ohlen has even said they know we are already paying a fee a month so every content update is going to be free all the time as well as probably the expansions to. I know...too good to be true right? Well it's not. It's true. 15 dollars a month for everything enjoy

and part 2 where he mentions this will be the largest amount of content any mmo has ever given away for free in one update

you're welcome

At the Guild summit they said Fall. So that gives a Sept - Nov. window. But I don't think that was a hard set date.

Now, I didn't read all the pages in this thread so if it's been said, I apologize for it.

This, what you are talking about, is just an update that has a lot of stuff in it. If they were to charge for this, I think it would be a disaster and the game would never recover. Now, if they release an expansion to the game, it would be completely different. An expansion woul have 10 new worlds at least with class quests and world quests, plus it would continue on with the story.

This game is called Star Wars The Old Republic, an expansion would be titled Star Wars The Old Republic - The Universe At War or something along those lines.

I don't see a new expansion coming out until this game has been out for a year.

Just my opinion.

Watched it, he never said there it will be free, one can assume that, but it is not said that clear there. When he says that is the largest content for something that isn't a expansion pack, it could be taken that he means with expansion pack something one has to buy in a box. And even if the new content will be free, BioWare had clearly thought about charging us for it (that's why they had made these surveys in the past).
