Sub cost?!
I got into the game when it launched. It was utter trash. I couldn't play the game because of HORRIBLE ( and i mean unplayable) FPS issues... but besides those issues I absolutely loved the game. I ...

Unfortunately, it's not that simple.
As i have explained on the SWTOR forums, there are some big issues with current f2pain system.
In some EU countries, the monthly cost of subbing is the equivalent of 1 week of food resources.
Crippling F2Ps with absurdities like 350k credits limit while an ops pass is 2-3 times that only reduces the number of SUB players because they will be unable to play along with their f2p friends, Seen guilds disband due to this. The main thing that could bring back players is increasing the credit limit access for f2p/pref. At least 1mil is the minimum necessary for basics. Other MMOs offer 10 times that for free players and unlocks to 1 billion with just a cc-equivalent purchaseable unlock.
And instead of taking everything from 2fp/prefs, maybe the game should award subs more, not cripple the other ones. Good and better is way more nicer than crippled and not crippled.
There are many things that can be detailed here, which of most have been talked about on the official forums, but the situation remains overall a very sad one.
Wait, you have to pay conversion rates and whatnot? ^_-
They don't just let you pay in your own valuta?
I pay 12.99 euros a month, which is about 18 CAD....just like they pay 12.99 dollars in the US (I guess)
How can they ask more?
