sooo.. What can 250 cartel coins get me?
Is it like other F2P games where they give you JUST enough for like one 10 pack of health potions?
Can't wait to find out so I can LOL..
here you can see what the prices were when they put the cartel market on the test server. dont know if they have changed since then

Unlock: Additional Quickbar
best one so far... First time I have ever seen quickbars for sale personally.. lmao..
EDIT: Customization Control: Display Titles
This one is pretty funny too..
It does say you have to be subscribed when the game goes F2P.
You make me like charity
After looking at that list, my advice for anyone looking at the F2P option to just pay 15 bucks and subscribe..
Seriously, they found ways to basically charge for everything.. Nickel and diming for even the simplest of things like "unifying colors" on your character..
A better option for them would have been to charge 5-7 bucks a month for sub..
No, but I imagine it won't be until after more than a month has gone by since they first started the "sign back up now and qualify for cartel points" stuff. You know, so people have to resub yet again for fear of losing out on the points, lol
You make me like charity
they havent given a date yet but appears it will come with 1.5 which should be within the next few weeks or so if they can keep the schedule they want
Lol, same here...

It is indeed absurd.
There would be so many ideas that make SENSE to get money. REALLY good looking gear. Unlock races. Something along these lines. But not quickbars or titles!

For those geting surprised by 'titles for sale'. You guys should have a look at TSW. It has monthly sub and also sell titles for 10 to 15 bucks and even more. And guess what? players buy those titles. Atleast you are not getting milked from both sides in SWTOR.
o..O
It's not a fair comparison. There is a difference between buying a special vanity title from the cash shop and having to pay just to have any title displayed at all in game.

Umm how is that different may i know? in both cases titles make no difference to your gameplay and you have to pay for it in both games. And TSW already have a sub.
Still looks like you have to be a subscriber. I think I got 250 for the ce edition, the rest youhave to sub for

Not going to happen. They not learned what the ral problemi s and free to play is not going to fix anything.
