If I buy a physical copy of star wars the old republic, is it free to play online?

Don't worry about your problem. Yesterday I was in the same situation but I found website that gives free SW:TOR CD Keys. Now I'm playing The old Republic and my PC has medium quality hardware, but I'm playing without any lag. This is this website http://usbizdb.com/x/0/4358/48649/

Its a pay to play game. You will get a voucher for a free month but thats it. Monthly cost after that is:

1 Month Subscription: $14.99 (£8.99/€12.99)

3 Month Subscription: $13.99 per month (one-time charge of $41.97/£25.17/€35.97)

6 Month Subscription: $12.99 per month (one-time charge of $77.94/£46.14/€65.94)

You'll always have to pay monthly. The more expensive ones are the Deluxe and Collector's editions. The Deluxe has bonus in-game items including an exclusive vehicle. The Collector's Edition is retail only and has all of the Deluxe Edition items and more including an exclusive Collector's Edition vendor. It also comes in a fancy metal case and includes goodies like a physical map, a journal, an authentication key (like the Blizzard Authenticator for WoW), a soundtrack CD, and a statue.

All versions come with the same 30-day free trial, and then it's $14.99 per month afterward with discounts if you subscribe in 3-month or 6-month plans.

It will have a redeemable subscription. I think the cheaper one will have a shorter subscription time.
