SWTOR delineates restrictions on F2P players
Inevitably, the first question anyone asks in the wake of a free-to-play conversion is about how much a person can get for the price of nothing. Previously, Star Wars: The Old Republic had posted an explanation of the many ways free players would get only limited access, but an updated chart makes the exact limitations clear. As a general rule, the restrictions are in threes: three Flashpoints per week, three Warzones per week, three Space Missions per week. Players will also be able to buy weekly passes for these features to get unlimited access. There will also be restrictions on inventory expansions and cargo hold storage for free players, and field revivals on death will be limited. Taking a look at the full chart should make the breakdown obvious (although there's a believed typo under the restrictions on equipping items). Meanwhile, current subscribers can take advantage of a new account feature to see just how many bonus coins they'll get if they're subscribed when the conversion takes place.

Fallen Earth introduces customer rewards program
Icarus Studios unveiled some new subscription options for Fallen Earth players yesterday, and today the studio is sweetening the deal a little more. September will bring customer rewards to the Wasteland, a program that offers up some extra incentive to players who subscribe to Fallen Earth. The news is a little light on specifics, but more details are promised soon. For now, we know that the first phase of this program will be "tailored for veteran players," but other phases will presumably follow. Points are earned for each individual month you hold a subscription, as well as additional bonuses for cumulative months. Check out the Fallen Earth site for all the current information.
