PS gone free to play now ?

in Planetside

Hi all.

I decided to re-sub for a month or two so patched up to the latest version.

 

Imagine my suprise, delight even, when it just logged me straight in to the game.

I haven't clicked any re-sub button, no money has gone from my bank acct, I haven't been offered any free time.

Anyone know what's going on ?

    The game is free up to BF6 , then if you want to advance you must pay.

    I have two BF 13's though - I'm not on a trial or anything.

    Nullapax: I dont think that the game is free... xluciferix is probably talking about reserves program that has ended long time ago. You can only get 30 day trial key on some fan servers now.

    I think that you are experiencing some kind of SOE reward for old subscribers. You can look on all that new content and decide if you want to enjoy Planetside once again.

    I am assuming that it is something like that.

     

    Whatever - I am having a blast relearning how to play and still can't understand why there are so many Hack and Slash type MMO's but still only this one Sci-Fi style game

     

    EDIT = I'd better clarify that last statement. I know there are Sci-Fi games like Neocron, Face of Mankind etc etc but none play like PS.

    Sony gave a free month to old players to test out the new  patches. Enjoy yourself!

    Who are you calling "Old" ya cheeky young whipersnapper ?

     

    Hee hee, well that explains it then.

    I am enjoying it again but I'm still no good at it.

    My reactions aren't what they used to be but I do OK in a support role.

    Thanks for the info

    Yeah they handed those out quite a while ago.

     

    Of course I used mine up and left the game again.

     

    The new stuff is nice and all, and it's even better they actually got their thumbs out of their bums and started doing something. It's just more of everything has changed, no one i know still plays (well, except for a few..but they were rarely on), and NC was actually the most populated on my server some how, thats just not right (I was NC).

     

    Oh well

    I grabbed one of those 30-day passes that were available for a short time from some French site.

    I created a new character and got him up to BR14 over several days before deleting him and uninstalling the game.  A week later, I reinstalled and leveled a new character on a different server and empire up to BR12 before deleting and uninstalling again.  I repeated this a third time up to BR12 before the trial expired.

    Even for free, the game is in such a horrible state that I could not stay interested for more than a few days in-a-row.  Such a shame.
