Trial version coming?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I have a friend that's interested in playing, but missed the open beta to try it out. Anyone know if a trial version is coming? And if not does Cryptic freak out if you log in to the game from a significantly different IP? I'm thinking of letting him create a character on my account to try it out if no trial version is coming any time soon.

Thanks.

    Don't look for a trial for 6-9 months. Maybe even longer if the game is a success which it looks like it might very well be.

    If the game tanks, then you'll see trials much sooner.

    With most MMOs, giving him a copy of your game and your login credentials would be a violation of Terms Of Service and could get you suspended or banned. I would expect there will be a trial eventually but when probably depends on how subscriptions go. As long as the rate of new subscribers keeps growing, there probably won't be a trial since Cryptic will be putting more emphasis on keeping existing players and new subscribers happy. As soon as new subscriptions begin to level off you can expect to see a Trial being offered.
