Never-ending Trial Version: will Warhammer Follow DDO, F2P?

It was announced that Warhammer Online will not have a time limit to the trial version of the game. Gone are the days of the 10-day trial version for the P2P MMO game. The game now allows new players to try out the game for as long as they want, but with some heavy conditions. Regardless, anyone willing to try Warhammer can now have more time to experience every single class or race in the game, explore some dungeons and finish some quests.

With the latest patch v1.3.2, some new content has been added. Now maybe it’s a way to catch more players to join their game. But Warhammer Online has been a F2P game in Taiwan, HK, Korea and China. So will WAR’s never-ending trial version replacing 10-day offering indicate the game is on the road to full F2P, just like DDO? Only Mythic can give us the answer...

The following tips are some restrictions in the trial travel:

• Endless Trial accounts are restricted to Tier 1 of the Empire versus Chaos pairing. This includes Tier 1 scenarios but does not include access to the Capital Cities or the other racial pairings within the game.
• Endless Trial accounts may receive mail and purchase from the auction house; however, they cannot send mail or create auctions.

• Endless Trial accounts are limited to designated servers. If you’d like to play with friends on other servers, you will need to purchase a retail copy of the game and transfer your character to their server (or create a new character on their server). All characters Rank 11 and under on purchased accounts have access to unlimited transfers, with a max of one transfer per day.
  Please note that you can only transfer characters to the same server type as the server you created your characters on (Core, Open RvR, and Roleplay). Please see the full server list here for details about each server, including server type. Alternatively, if you have a friend who is currently playing WAR, you can ask them for a Recruit-a-Friend code that will allow you to create a Recruit-a-Friend trial account which has access to all servers. Please see the Recruit-a-Friend section for more information.
