Had a feeling this was coming when all the rumors about the Steam implementation started flying.

This might end up being a good thing for them in the long run. As long as they don't make their Free 2 Play model restrictive to the point where you are nickel and dimed to death for every little thing and their eventual cash shop is nothing more than cosmetic and fluff items.

I will more than likely jump back in when this happens :D

Woot, FINALLY!

I really hope to see some of you back, and some new players too. It really is a fun game!

Can't wait for all those rewards, sub perks and that cool mount. My account is still subbed until 2018 (credd!)

Looks promising, unlike TORs f2p transition it seems to be well managed and not overly nerfed. I'll probably be back a bit then

It looks like previous subscribers/retail purchase players get into a less-restrictive bucket between F2P and Continued Subscribers called the Loyalty Program.

Yep I started doing research after I saw this and found out all I needed to know....I will most definitely be jumping back in when it goes F2P....possibly even before! :lol:

I made a few posts with all the info and links to the WS site about it this morning when I found out :D

Thinking of resubbing for the two Player appreciation rewards! :lol: I'm a sucker for fluff!

I have been playing on a 2 month game code, and expect to stick around for free to play. If you haven't discovered the stream/podcast of "Strange Tales from Outer Space" you should check it out! They will get you right back into the Wildstar scene as it stands now.

I will look for you all in the guild channel!

Hey there Creed!

Grievance is on Entity (PvE).
