I agree. As a subber, I don't want to have to spend my cartel coins on stuff like Makeb, but I'd be more willing to do that if my monthly cartel coin allowance covered the cost of content like Makeb.

You don't know that. No one knows that. I don't even know if Bioware knows yet. What we do know is that Bioware said Makeb will come with a lot of content. So.... Why exactly are people ************ about maybe having to buy it?
I suppose getting a lyrium tattoo of breasts on my chest would make things better...

Because it is just one planet: not planets, more playable races, or Chapter 4. They also stated it would be free to subscribers and backtracking on that promise is immoral and unprofessional.

It's been real but the game just wasn't worth the sub for me anymore.

They promised more story with Makeb. Story = voice over work. That plus all the other content added on to the "update/expansion" is costly.

I agree, if subs have to pay for this I'm done with this game as well as EA/BW. You can only disrespect your customers so much before they ALL leave.

i've defended TOR up and down. but if they charge subscribers for ANY piece of content. i dont care how big, I'm out.

If they worked hard and put together this massive expansion then I would be ok with it. . .but thats ONLY when they were a subscription based MMO. Once they went free to play, they HAVE to give people a reason to subscribe.

If the content is good enough, the F2P crowd will buy it and they can bring in extra money that way. But if they charge subscribers for it, then that's too much of a money grab

This thread pretty much ended with the second post.

It might be that content later on will be sold as an expansion but Makeb will most likely not be among it. I doubt they will go back on this promise.

Of all the people saying they will unsub on that, 99% will dish out whatever the price of this mini expansion would be the second Makeb is available.

IF this mini expansion has a price of course...
If your thread title is not a variation on "open letter... BIOWARE,... fail... NOW!", then you are a fanboy

The best part of all this speculation is that they think its alot of content.
