To anyone who are either on the fence or did not like SWTOR, but are waiting for it to be Free to Play, IGN detailed the restrictions:

EDIT: INB4 StringingVelvate saying he does not like SWTOR one bit.

I don't know what any of this means. What are Operations? What are Flash Points?

So basically pay-to-win.

No surprises there then.

Never played this game,but I suppose (knowing EA) they are important elements of the "full experience" you must pay to play with XD

"While those who opt out of subscribing will get all the game's story content for free,"

All I needed to know; I'll get around to it eventually. Maybe.

Story is really all I cared about.

...Even if Bioware did butcher the KotOR time period with this game.

The question is, how much of the story can you realistically see without all of those extras?

I'd imagine all of it... The story was built to be soloable, no?

The comparison table is here. (I couldn't find a link on the original article.)

Looks like they'll have three levels, like most sub-turned-F2P games, the totally free, the free which paid something ("Preferred Status"), and subscription.
