A new post has cropped up on the official Fallen Earth blog on the day the game officially launches its F2P version. Called "On F2P and Beyond", the post links to the official patch notes for today's redeployment and more.

In addition to the patch notes, current subscribers are urged to make sure that they have received all of the subscriber rewards to which they are entitled. The blog has a handy dandy checklist to do so.

The article also gives a recap of the most significant changes in today's patch:

• Loot on many creatures fixed (drop rates shouldn't have been as low as they were)
• Bridges fixed to lower incidents of people falling through them
• Bandages back on merchants
• Fastener count in recipes reduced (to reflect the fact that they are now rarer)
• Bandages require less cotton
• New items on Reward Merchants: "Commander's Best Crafting Kit" (can be used in place of any crafting kit) and Wardrobe Slot unlocks

Lastly, the post talks about the Economy changes that will be implemented from this patch forward and answers the burning question in many people's minds: "Where are [you] going with this?"
