Stupid F2P Restrictions

Gasp...you mean that everything isn't handed to you on a silver platter if you're F2P !!!

You will be getting WHAT YOU PAID FOR.....

I like those restrictions. This game cost $200 million USD and the money has to be made from somewhere. You're getting the most expensive and the key feature of TOR, which is story, completely free (what I dislike). Imo f2p in TOR is properly circumcised and turned into a demo version that still offers you most of the content.

Well The sprint is kind of really borderline If I think about it. This is the only one though

All others are perfectly in order what I expected.
Keeping a sub though since I do know that Flash points and operations is something I want to know plus the 200 coins a month will take care of my impulse shopping for Fluff

Overall this is good job BW it will make money and I think $30 to $40 dollars per f2p account over 6 months.

But it may affect subscribing players indirectly. For example, if you make a group with a F2P player you will then have to wait for him all the time because he can't sprint.

Then get a subscription. What's the problem?

My question is, why didnt they just use the method DCUO used for f2p. I started playing that game when it went f2p, where you werent restricted to the gameplay. Because i was able to play through most of the game, i started to support it, buying the expansions which made me a premium member (which gave me more access to things like more inventory space and more room for more toons) and buying things like cosmetic changes to my toons. I also wasnt restricted to not using the gear i earned cause i wasnt paying.

Whats been done here with f2p is they've made this a f2p single player game. The f2p model does nothing for the endgame community. New players are gonna be running around the leveling zones adding nothing more to the game . I dont see the point to it if its not bringing people to the game to play it beyond leveling. I'm not advocating for all access to all for f2p, but what they are going to be doing makes no sense. I've been here since beta, and i dont see this going well when other games are doing it better and are making it more enjoyable for the players.

DCUO may not be for everyone, but atleast they do f2p right imho. They give you choices and let you decide what level of the game you'd want to pay/play for. This seems like a waste of time.

Well, we didn't have level 1 spring for a very long while after release... I don't like using all the time, too

Only thing that doesn't make sense to me from your list and from the new posted list IMO is the death restriction. That's a little severe and to me seems to be in conflict with the statement that story is unrestricted. Beyond that I find all the other reasonable and fankly expected. I though sprint restriction kinda makes sense (honestly I thought it was really stupid when they made it level 1 at all, why make it ability if you have it from level 1?)

those 2 extra seconds of waitin time aren't going to kill you, besides, i've been in many fp pugs with group finder and there's always a slacker in the grp. (mostly me when healing hehe)

we should already be glad that we have an option to revive on the spot, for me coming from wow that was a BIG bonus, no more endless corpse running, try finding your body again when you fell off a cliff into another zone due to no-flying restriction and have to pass 3 zones to get back to your body, 30+ minute run
going to medcenter isn't that bad, sice there are multiple medcenters in tor zones, you will never be far off of where you died.
