GW2 last beta weekend is over and now it's like a month worth of waiting to go till the official release. In the meantime, I honestly don't know what to play. Don't feel like investing into anything though as I'll jump right into GW2 when it comes out and abandon pretty much every other game. So, is there any Free to Play game you could recommend that doesn't require "grinding"? Something that you just play, without having to buy upgrades (such as in Tribes Ascend).


I've been considering TF2 but I've never played it and therefor not sure - is all the game relevant content (weapons, packs, w/e the game has) available from the start or do you need to gather points to buy stuff?

quake live is a decent f2p shooter as well and it has a small monthly fee if you want added features and more maps

Blacklight: Retribution is descent too, thanks to the renting system you can get good equipment after just a couple of matches.

Microsoft Flight, which you can download from Steam.

But keep in mind, however, that you must buy DLC to fully experience the game.

If you don't want to buy DLC, then try Tinker, which is available from Games for Windows Live.

League of Legends is the F2P game I reccomend to everyone now, been playing for over a year and I have tons of fun with it. You can't go wrong with TF2 though, it's great despite the hat-mania. I can't get into it anymore because of the ridiculous amounts of paid gear and just general silliness of the gameplay now (played it most back in 2009) but it's still fun and highly polished.

Quake Live and TF2 are both great.

I would set these games up as lines of defense, basically you try TF2 first as it's the one most likely to please the average gamer, then Blacklight: Retribution, and then Tribes: Ascend.

I'd recommend Tribes: Ascend, not many other shooters with such a high skillcap (doesn't mean you won't have fun if you're new).

Also, really not any other shooters that offer the same experience as tribes does.

TF2, tribes but you will get annoyed at that once it bumps you to the elite league after like 10 hrs
