If I read correctly, it will be a parallel thing, in which you have the illusion of continuation Jet. I can almost guarantee there will be NO character transfer to this "new" thing under any circstance, in some desperate hope to bring back players and have everyone start over on a level playing field. When, after some time, your player base on the original (paid beta land) game goes so low, they will claim an inability to keep it going and you will be like all the SWG players.

And I don't want them to die Tas, as I stated before, I want them to be like that putrid douche in the Metallica video One for the next 50 years, being gang raped daily by Drakiis wanna-be's.
