Lot of technical issues both in downloading and in playing the game. I wasn't able to play last night. I bet it's working better now, though
Anyone who bought the game and DLC previously all your dlc and progress doesn't transfer to free to play.
No thanks. Haven't played a single F2P game yet that didn't feel cheap, manipulative and full of scams. Minus Team Fortress 2, I won't ever, ever, ever, give ANY F2P the time of day. Unless, however, they decide to stop being so manipulative and dishonest and greedy. Pay to win, paying for "energy" to continue playing the game, making unlocking required equipment extremely slow and tedious in order to persuade you to pay $$$ for something that should have been free.
Oh, and my favorite, PAID games that have micro transactions in them. Mass Effect 2, Battlefield 3, etc. Both EA games by the way. Both of which I bought used and passed around to as many friends as possible. Robbed about 20 sales from EA each with those two games. A drop in the bucket for sure, but my way of fighting back against anti consumer practices like micro transactions into $60 games.

I got the 360 version free from the beginning (Bing Rewards). GCI is good but not great, but there's some fun to be had there. I usually run around invisible with a katana, you have to love a game that lets you run around invisible with a katana.
I'll give it a try.
I approve of what you do @EKGProd but we can only know if it's that kind of shit game trying it out. Keep fighting the good fight, I'm with you.

"I've spent about £20, mostly on keys, and don't regret a penny. It feels like tipping the best bartender in the world when all the drinks are on the house."
Valve is quietly teaching the world how to properly make free 2 play games.

I wish I could play this on PC. The updates to the servers and matchmaking sound fantastic and it fixes my biggest problem with the game.
I seriously doubt they'll update the console versions (the ones I play) with this good stuff because console updates cost money and Monolith doesn't have money. It's a shame because this is really the only multiplayer FPS I like.

I just got a code from Warner for being an old school GCI player, and they gave me a permanent double XP boost... cool I guess
This makes me a little mad because I bought it and it just came out. It actually upsets me because I bought a shitty game.
So the eighteen or so DLC items included in the Batman Franchise summer sale won't transfer over to the free version?
I can see why they wouldn't, but that still puts me off. Why would I ever want to pay twice for the same useless virtual goods?

@Renato84's quotation: That's how I approach microtransactions in f2p games, too. I've purchased a few skins for LoL and consider it my way of tipping for an otherwise free game.
Well, I bought it back then, it's a fun game and the matchmaking got better on the F2P version .
I followed the instructions on their website and got lots of early unlocks. It's cool that they're doing something for those who paid for the game.

I believe he was referring to the additional costumes and guns that were not part of any story addon, just random glut to rake customers for money.
Examples:
Alternate Appearance Pack 1 (Garrus, Thane, Jack)
Alternate Appearance Pack 2 (Tali, Grunt, Miranda)
Aegis Pack
Firepower Pack
Equalizer Pack
