Well this seems like the greatest plan by EA since Wile E Coyote decided to have Roadrunner for lunch
Actually no, these plans for F2P make Wile E Coyote look like a tactical planning genius
I play STO atm, now that is quite a good F2P mo…
2.4million+ sales - that was last time i checked - , could easily say less than 700k people left and falling badly and F2P in less than 8 months.

Even if its 700k people left thats what?, 1.7-1.9mil dropped (based on box sales at last check 2.4mil+) and will drop further as the rage quitters will leave in droves and not return when F2P hits as they find new games to get into.

Lots of yummy yummy rage on the SWTOR forums over this, one of the greatest IPs in the world combined with one of the greatest storytelling makers in Bioware and it gets screwed up and now this.
Its not going free to play, i overheard a phone call, full transcript..... not in anyway trying to avoid the sub issue is bad

Looking at the OP list of things they are adding, its not really a great deal for me - not enough for me to resub, been away for around 3 months and cant really see myself going back
