this overall appears to be a great change
The reason they felt the need to change the brackets back in 2010 was to decrease the disparity between the highest and lowest ends of the brackets. X0s could barely hit X9s, and this was a way of alleviating that issue. Now, however, they have level scaling in BGs, and there is no longer a good reason to keep the brackets small.

You mean the price of a movie ticket per month once per month?
I could spend dang near this amount on my commute to work each DAY.
Put it in perspective, it is less than 50 cents per day for cheap entertainment. And most of the people that peruse this site spend $3-5 a day on so called energy drinks. Just don't drink one of those drinks once per week and you can sub. BAM! Troubles will be over.

You have no idea how many times i've said this.
Also, no one seems to realize, they just halved queues right across the board of all pre-endgame pvp.

Nothing new, they did this in Vanilla too, to level 30 twinks when they changed 21-30 to 20-29 and created the 10-19 bracket. Making all our level 30s worthless. At least now gear and gold is meh. Back then it was a long grind to fund your twinks.

People come from a wide range of financial situations and $15 a month is something that some cant afford to spend on entertainment. There's also the fact that a lot of the people who play WoW aren't working adults and don't have access to credit cards or cash for prepaid cards. Lot of peeps still in high school and some have strict parents that don't even want them playing WoW let alone give them money for it
Why pay money to have an advantage over people in those situations when F2P's are the majority anyway? The only thing to really 'win' out of this game is respect from the people you play with, and you just won't get that unless you're on a level playing field

Stats will be pretty similar. F2Ps and 24s may even have better stats. 29s gear isn't significantly better than 24s - Gnomer rings and STV quest rewards are still solid for them. Satchel necklace/gloves starting at 26 or 27 are really nice though.
The biggest issues are abilities and glyphs. There are some really strong glyphs out there.
We'll see how abilities work out. Looking through the WoD database, most things are learned at the same level still. 25-29 you see Sprint, instant Starsurge procs, Solar Beam, Stormstrike and Freezing Trap. I'm sure a lot of that and class/damage balance will change though.
My prediction: F2P dies when all the druids implode with cheetah form envy.

I'm sorry, but if someone can't afford a wow sub, the time they spend on making a BiS f2p they should be spending somewhere else.
No p2ps are spending money JUST to have an advantage over f2ps. They're paying a wow sub, and twinking also. It just so happens that 20-24 is the most active because it's free.
