I read somewhere that the new race would cost $10 or something to unlock.

Pay attention to the other AAA MMOs that have a F2P option. It is basically elements of the subscription service divided into different parts for purchase via micro-transaction. These games also offer a normal subscription where you get everything you would normally get.

What do you think you would get as a subscriber? Common sense goes a long way when speculating.

You say you read they would charge $10 then you quote the guy who says he is a bioware employee.

Come on you aren't even trying.

It also does not help that the "employee's" spelling and grammar is unsat.

But does your title Flash?!? and is it premium? the answer is NO. They'll also have a special title for subscribers that go into F2P model called "Containment officer" its a special premium title you can only get when you continue to pay for a subscription

I know many won't believe me. but, I work at Bioware. best part for me is coming here to read fans replies. I won't tell you much and I don't care if you believe me. So here is "what's" going on were I work.

If you havent noticed the interviews we had given sometime back had been removed. mainly, the interviews that gave it "away" that we are looking at adding F2P model. we are indeed adding free to play to the game. now the best part for me is anonymity I have that allows me to be open.
We will have mainly have a "fluff" shop for the new direction with F2P. but much of the legacy system will have the option to purchase those "perk's" (the main reason credit cost are high to slow progression until we patch F2P) as well many parts of the game will have new content that requires you purchase are type of "coinage" from the cash shop so you can buy the access to "special" content/quest. now new companions will also be in the shop. but due to us getting down sized and the staff changes a small team is working on these F2P changes.
I don't want anyone to be upset by this. but many of these changes had been in the "planning stages" for many months since the sharp drop in subscribers. many parts of the game will cost money to access. for example you can unlock the new "cathar" race in your legacy. but buying the unlock, it will cost 10$ US

So we are all pretty upset here. we know Daniel and Jimmy many more are next round of layoffs. EA blames us and to some extent they're right to. but it was fan feedback from the day we opened the forums that encouraged us to design it for the fans the way it is and that included making it more like Kotor then an MMO like Wow. Also from what I have heard in the halls, Starwars Galaxies was shut down due to the fact are talks with LA,EA suits ecouraged the new guy at LA to increase the licensing fee at renewal time. it was a move to remove any direct competiton to TOR.

Sorry guys gotta go but be good to each other."
LOLOLOLOLOL I couldn't stop laughing from this!! Who the **** is Daniel and Jimmy?!?! Why did this clown have to name drop! I hope he get's laid off along with Daniel and Jimmy and Meagan and Bob LMAO! This is so ridiculous, and he blames the fans!? Looking through the suggestion forums I don't see anything asking for it to be made like a single-player game. I saw a TON of sandbox and swoop racing suggestions! I hope this guy is real so I can be 100% confident that the people working at Bioware are incompetent, un-educated, idiotic monkeys

But really this was a good laugh, +1 for the attempt
