what does the free to play portion offer ? Raids ? PVP? I watched my friend play this game for awhile, looked like WoW with lightsabers.

You get 2 action bars for free. Anything more is pretty much clutter anyway. It's sort of like playing EQ with 1.5 action bars, as a comparison.

you get it all for subscribing lol
he's mad cuz they don't offer every feature for free /boggle
when you compare it with other options in f2p games it's actually much less restrictive

SWTOR f2p

LOTRO f2p
most content unlocked, have to pay for expansion if you want endgame, but other than that free2play

paying for action bars is the dumbest fucking thing i've ever heard. In wow i had around 5-8 of them.
paying for bag slots and inventory space is stupid too.
paying to do pvp is a shit idea too, paying to do raids is almost as bad.

LoL is free to play - a true F2P game.

No, LoL forces you to pay for champions you want because it's an insufferable grind to get them by playing the game.
TF2/Dota2 actually have the best f2p system because literally EVERYTHING is cosmetic and you can get it in game.

D3 is by far the worst profiteering piece of garbage I have ever played. I just felt like saying that.

I used to enjoy the grind (wonder where that comes from), and enjoyed playing the free ones on rotation - though with more and more characters emerging it I'm sure it gets difficult to get one you want :)
TF2 is truly amazing.
DOTA2 - isn't that in locked beta til 2020? (though anyone who wants to play knows someone with spare codes)

Game gave me about 2 months total of entertainment until I finally left. Worth the box cost at least..
If it was a single player, KoToR game were you just played through diff. story lines it would of been good. The "MMO" aspect of it was destroyed in Beta... :mad:

id rather go back to paying 15/month or free trials then any of the f2p options ive seen in any mmo, they all suck

Agree here. A $$ filter keeps the F2P scum at arm's length.
