News on SOE***8217;s upcoming PlanetSide promotion has recently come to light, but we would like to some additional details to the promotion information. We would like to offer you and your readers some clarification, and we hope that you can help us by updating your initial posting.

New players will be able to download the PlanetSide ***8220;Cannon Fodder***8221; demo and will be able to play for free through Battle Rank 6. Once they complete BR 6, they will be able to continue to play the game, but will not progress to Battle Rank 7, On exit from the game, they will be taken to a website that will allow them to upgrade to a monthly subscription, which includes the base game, the expansion pack (Core Combat) and the Battle Frame Robotics (BFRs), the giant robot units. Depending on skill, it can take a player up to 30 days to complete BR 6, which will give them plenty of time to see many of the cool aspects of the game. Additionally, players can continue on in the game at Battle Rank 6 for the entire 12 month promotion period.

I had a really well explained and thourough Free CoreCombat thread a while back. Basically, I said give everyone free CC, BUT, with the registration dates of CC on each account, give that acocunt a cetain ammount of months free. Say you purcahesd it at $40, you would get 3 months free for compensation. Or, if you paid $10 for it, you would get 1 month free. Who ever didnt own it, got it for free, just without compensation. That was the idea in a nutshell.

Good idea but, I doubt it'll happen hehe

Yeh there wont be any big bump in BFR population.

I wonder if the noobs can gun a BFR though.

And I too bought the expansion myself.
