Re: Is it possible to get passed level 50 in SWTOR with a free to play character?

I was afraid of that.  I guess I will be taking a break for a while then.  Would have liked to continue on, but I really can't justify the subscription fee.

@athenken As far as I'm aware, just subscribing for a month will allow you to level past 50 as well as give you access to the expansions (which you will retain after the sub runs out). Seems like a good choice for those only interested in the story. 🙂 

Yeah, but if I let the subscription run out will I be frozen at whatever level I had attained at that point?  I would imagine EA games would have thought of this.

@athenken

Once you have subscribed for 30 days you can continue to level to 70 and access all the expansions to KOTET the only thing I believe you cant access is the galactic command after the sub ends

Ie even after your sub stops if you create a new character you can level to 70 and play all the currently released expansions

Is 70 the highest level in the game?

yes 70 is cap for now.

preferred is not 50 i seen preferred at 70
