The Secret World is now F2P with an optional subscription.  Free players get unlimited access to all of the game's content, while subscribers get extra benefits such as a re-usable XP boost (1 hour duration, 16 hour cool-down), a monthly allotment of Funcom points to use in the store, and a 10% discount on all store items.

http://www.thesecretworld.com/news/subscription_no_longer_required

Future content will come in the form of optional DLC to be purchased with Funcom points.  The next of which will be released in January for $5.  Anyone with a registered/paid game account before the end of 2012 will receive the January update for free.  

Regular patches with some new content (probably new store items) will be released regularly at no extra charge.

EDIT: Looks like it is following the GW2 model.  You still need to purchase the game upfront, but no sub fee is required after that initial purchase.

EDIT x2: Additional info on the forums:

My favorite new breakfast food:

Pita bread warmed in the oven, topped with a layer of regular non-garlic hummus and 3 scrambled eggs. Good God.


...And we will strike down upon those of Darkness, with great vengeance and Furious Anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

Bugger me sideways and call me Sared's dog (dawg?), but the new Man of Steel trailer is good. Watch it. KNEEL.

I was skeptical about another Supes movie, but this trailer really changed my mind.

Humanity's reaction to a living god, and the god's struggle to gain the acceptance of mortals.  With Nolan and Goyer on the script, and Snyder on visuals, it's going to rock.

This is exactly why I don't talk about video games outside of a very select circle of people:

I'm going to start wearing my Neo coat more regularly.  I feel like I bought a really nice car and never take it out of the driveway.

TSW is half-off on Amazon right now for $15.  A goddamn steal now that the game has gone B2P.
