There is no conformation on the ratio of paid to free boyz, only on the ratio of Nobz to boyz. Paid players can unlock Nobz and F2P will be able to purchase them as an upgrade from the in game shop.

nope I made an assumption, as in " I assume that the ratio..."

Well these are assumptions just like my comment i made earlier. Everyone is assuming there will be a 9 to 1 ratio with Nobz and orks. The devs assume that the balance will be created around this..but no one will know for sure until the game releases ..I mean what if the game releases and there is an insane overflow of f2p players and now the ratio is 50 to 1. All i meant to say with my post was that conservatively I believe that there will be 3 free players to every 1 paying player, again my assumption and with this kind of ratio 3 free ork boys have a fighting chance against a space marine with some teamwork and good ol thinkin! the space marine on the other hand will have no issues. Such is the life of an ork boy or in this case a f2p player.

have you noticed the ammount of loyalits on these forums?do you know how many people like the LSM?

I have not i'm new to the forums but I can see how there will be many loyalist or paying players. Well do you know if the orks f2p will be accompanied with ork NPCs and/or AI for more numbers?

So far the only NPCs will be at forts/strategic locations for defence purposes and the PvE dungeons ofc( tyranids)

F2P players can also play Nobz if they buy them with real cash in the store.

It's been stated by the devs that the F2P boyz have no discernable differences between them and the starting paid boyz, also that a boy can kill a Space Marine 1 v 1 if the player is skilled enough, the SM does have the advantage though.

So there is no reason why a F2P boy, controlled by a skilled player could not kill a SM.

devs said that f2p orks could upgrade their boy to nobs with microtransactions
