FTP has a bad name a lot of the times when it comes to forum members.  most of the time this is because "Pay to Win".  

However as time has been going on the industry seems to be getting a better grip on how to do Free to Play games with games such as Warface, Dota 2, Tribes Ascend, and Planteside 2 to be a few showcases of it.

For me personally I haven't really enjoyed FTP games yet, though I still have high hopes for them.

Dota 2 -  Great game, just not my style
Tribes Ascend - Great game, don't like using Keyboard mouse
Planetside 2 - Same thing as Tribes Ascend.  I have high hopes for Planetside 2 on PS4.

Also a few others that I have high hopes for is Project Spark and Killer Instinct (Though you also have the option to buy the full game).

So what is some that you all have liked or hated?  Do you think the industry will get it right this generation and find a nice balance for FTP games?

I don't really play f2p games because I just assume they aren't good because there free but my friends recently tried to get me to play League of Legends, I didn't really get into it but they love it so f2p games cant be that bad. I look forward to trying out Planetside on the PS4 but that's really it. I think f2p games will get more and more popular sense Sony and Microsoft ( they changed there polices right? ) are allowing indies to make there prices what they want.

I loved Team Fortress 2 (although I bought it for $10 ONE week before it went F2P D: )

Team fortress 2 is amazing, although I paid for mine - so is LoL.

TF2 and Dota 2 are the only F2P I have truly enjoyed and invested literally hundreds of hours. The rest I got bored in less than a week.

Silkroad Online =D

Tried EdgeWorld for a while. Don't think I need to say more.

LoL great game for ARAM but the traditional map unless you have friends playing with you, you will rage a lot
Tf2 best shooter out there, the classes are actually very different and the better balanced team wins most of the time

I've been wanting to talk about this since I saw IGN's article.

Personally, I don't mind free to play games, as long as it is done right. This means:

I can progress through the game without feeling the need/pressure to spend money. Example is Real Racing 3 on iOS. The past 2 installments were paid, and they were great games. The third is free, but I was still able to finish the game without spending a dime. Only thing I could have got is stuff to save me time from playing the game (time-savers), which defeats the purpose of playing the game anyway lol

Furthermore and kind of going along with the last point, this one has some leeway; there should not be any modes/level/map/gameplay in the base game that require cash to unlock. DLC is okay. But when I download new game only to find out that half the levels require me to pay up with no other alternative to getting them, it can make me disappointed. Not always. If I like the game enough, sure I will pay a dollar or two to get more levels or whatever. No problem. If DLC is added, that isn't as big of a deal. But if a new game has content I can only play if I buy, it makes me feel cheated, even if I didn't pay for the game. If you're going to give me a free game, give me the whole thing, then you can release DLC later. Don't have DLC when the game releases. It probably looks like I'm making a bigger deal out of this than I want it to be. Anyway, it gets blurry because many iOS game have "Lite" versions which are like demos with in-app purchases to get the full game. This I don't mind, because it's not a free to play game, it's just a demo. 

Basically, I can enjoy free to play as long as I can progress through a game normally just as if it were paid, and I'm not pressured to spend money. Those are the most important parts. 

I also want to say that it can get on my nerves when, on the App Store, I buy a game, and then they update it with new content that I would need to pay for. The thing is, they used to do this all the time for free, update a game with new missions/levels/etc for FREE. You bet your ass it was awesome. But now, for many games, each new content update is an opportunity to get money instead of making customers happy with free new content. I know, it's DLC, and I don't really mind DLC, but at the same time it can sometimes get me angry. Like, I thought I bought the game, but I guess now you're telling me I only bought half of it.

World of Tanks, I play it daily.
No play to win works there, it only gives you certain perks... everyone's equal... though payment will get you easier leveling through tanks for example (which doesn't matter mostly, since different tier tanks get into different battles).

Has to be one of the best online games I ever played.
