If the site says you can play for free then you must be able to play for free. Isn't that a legal thing or something? "Cheating" customers is forbidden.

Wouldn't you think that the Financial report should tell the stock holders a thing or two about the change pricing strategy? lol.

Maybe they are trying to change it to the way they have AO setup. F2P and to enjoy the full content you need a paying subscription? but i cannot see them just out of the blue implementing this into the account section without any type of press release or info to the community.

But that would have to mean there is a expansion right? Because I have a level 80 and 45 and the 80 has seen the entire content? How would they be limited in play now?

" All your accounts are berong to us!"- is what I thought the moment I saw the certification going to GoDaddy.com. My guess is they have been hacked. If the players see a sudden upswing of gold sellers the next couple of weeks, and this f2p isn't confirmed officially, then it would be a sure bet. ----------------------- Tried- L2, Ryzom, WAR, DDO, PWI, Tab Rasa, Requiem, Champs, AA, JD, PWI, SUN, Dawntide Played- SWG (pre-cu), AoC, VG, WoW, LoTRO,CoX, EQ2, DAOC, GW, PotBS, Aion, MO,APB, NASA, Fallen Earth, DCUO, Rift Playing- EVE, Black Prophecy, TOR Waiting for- Tera, Jumpgate Evo, WH40K, WWE, WOD, TSW -- -- "Hey, if Activision liked it, then they should have put a ring on it," Double Fine President Tim Schafer said.

Alright, well we now have an official response: Hello guys, This is Gungnir, Spanish Community Manager from EU It was just a side effect of the works for the Polish launch and wasn't supposed to be showed. We have already fixed this. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Kind regards! It was not supposed to appear, but it sounds like the design of that section is intentional. Let more speculation run rampant.

Originally posted by TheLover OP is telling the truth. I just did the same thing a couple of minutes ago. I got 1 month of playtime with zero cost. I won't be playing though since I'm playing something else right now and don't even have AoC installed but it did work. Could it be that they are thinking about going F2P and are testing the subscription system? Look. You just made your account and you don't fool me. I just tried this today and NO. It does not work!
