What About Sub Paying Players?

You may pay a subscription for your cable connection but simply paying a subscription doesn't entitle you to every channel on cable....

Shouldn't we automatically receive EVERYTHING there is in the Cartel Shop period? Or are we going to be expected to pay real money for extra coins so we can get those sweet extras thereby causing us to pay more than our subscription fee.


Necessary Edit: I would like to state that I do not think I should get everything in the Cartel Shop with no effort, I will happily grind for days to acquire an item or perk, however as a subscription paying player I do not feel I should have to invest 1 red cent more than the current sub fees to acquire said items.

Yeah I probably am going to quit which is a sad sad thing because I love the game but this F2P model is kinda gamebreaking for me. I understand that I do not deserve EVERYTHING in game for free. I am more than happy to grin grind grind for nything I want in game, but as a subscription paying member it should not require any extra real world money to get any single item or perk in game, I should be able to just grind for it. I feel like the F2P model is being forced on me.

PS its not about the amount of money, I am comfortably retired and well off. It is the corporate greed I see in this that disgusts me.

I certainly understand the sentiment of the OP. There should be a way to earn extra cartel coins (for subs only), just be doing in-game activities. Or maybe you can sell your crafted items to other players for cartel coins. I don't know if they are transferable, but I think that may be a possibility.

On the other hand, think of it like this: I buy a car. Purchasing the car gives me access to all of the car's features. No part of the car is unavailable to me. However, if I want fancy headlights, a new stereo, or a new paint job, I have to purchase those things separately. If I don't buy them, I still have full access to my car. If I want more from my car experience, I can put more money into it.

what did they force on you? just keep youre sub up and everything stays the same for u?
I seriously do not understand why that people are complaining? to few wz,to few deads,no speeder bla bla bla...
DO NOT CHOOSE f2p and do what i do.pay 15 euro each month...

You don't get much F2P on your cable though do you, so it's rather different I think.

Usually you can get your car built to order if you will pay for it.

Not sure how that relates to a game subscription though....... it would be more akin to leasing a car surely?

I do not think you are understanding. The game will not be staying the same for me as there will be new stuff to acquire that I as a subscription paying player will not have access to without paying extra for micro transactions. It does not matter what the stuff is or if I actually want a single item in the shop, the point is that they are taking away from us subscription players by introducing new stuff and not allowing us to have it (no matter how insignificant the stuff is for our gameplay) unless we pay extra.
