I'm sure all of wow will be f2p sooner or later. Probably later rather than sooner. Blizz raising the lvl cap on trials is highly unlikely because they are aware that people twink on trial accounts, and giving trial accounts more freedom is not a good investment, especially when they want more subs to come in.

You might have mistaken me for someone else,I don't really play my healadin anymore, But I think the max lvl will be 100 if i'm not mistaken. blizz never intended for trial accounts to stay as trials. They wanted for new players to get a taste of the game and want to upgrade and sub.It wouldn't make sense for them to give trials more freedom, especially when they know people twink on trial accounts. I'm sure wow will go f2p in general sometime in the future. All mmo's do usually.

It would be natural for Blizzard to raise the F2P level cap once the end game cap is vastly increased.
We all prob won't be playing this game so eventually.

I don't mind the level cap so much as the gold and profession caps. One level is as good as another as far as I'm concerned, but the profession cap at 100 really is the thing that keeps us from being on par with 24s in terms of gear. If they removed the 100 skill point limit and just let it be capped by our level, we would be in a much better place.
Raising the gold limit to were we could buy more level appropriate stuff would be nice, but they need to keep that low so that farmers aren't tempted to make an army of f2p gold farming bots, and then upgrade an account for $5 once they are all gold capped. The trade restriction makes sense for that reason as well. F2p needs to stay out of the economy, but raising it to say, 100g, wouldn't kill anybody, I don't think.
Easing the profession limit and gold cap at the current level would be my dream. If they simply moved the f2p level higher, and still had draconian profession and gold penalties, we would still be in the same place.

>Chinese/Asian/Korean WoW is vastly better in terms of Lockouts on P2P raids and F2P's can do vastly more on trials. Arch/free exploration of all continents, and more things i'm too lazy to look up.
Jealous? Maybe.
Mad? Yup.

i'm happy with 20. at 40 you wouldn't be bored with the extra dungeons you had to grind to get all the new gear? it'd be fun for a few days and then you'd be back in the bgs doing the same thing with a slightly different strategy that'd again just become routine. this is why i'm not even curious about going to level 90. 20forever!
btw, if blizzard is smart, they could make a killing selling one time options to f2ps the chance to level to 40 and/or 70. players could forego subscribing and wouldn't have access to any new content, but be allowed all access to content up to 40 and/or 70 after paying say 30bucks. i make a lot of money for my own company coming up with these ideas. they're great ideas...that's why i'm rich...that's why i play f2p!

40 would probably help for class / gear balance. I'd have to look at what skills are available by then but I'm too lazy.
40 might also weed out some of the actual new players, seeing as they would have more to look forward to in a full subscription, 20 doesn't really off that much enticement imo.

I don't believe that you want to face grandfathered 29s in bg

All we need is a boost to 24 or any max lvl for a bracket so that we dont get farmed by all the bads who cant play the game correctly. (If your a 24 and you think your playing the game correctly, your not. You pay for a game so go play a 90 like everybody else. If you like the 20-24 bracket play a Trial not a 24.)
