However reading everything I can find on this site, and PCGamer, and some tweets with devs I can say I'm really hopeful.
The biggest let down for me was no SP campaign. But from what Russ has hinted at me, and from the article it seems MWO is just the starting point for the reboot of the franchise and there might be some glorious offline meching to come in the future. I do however like the slight rpg elements they're putting into the game.

The last free to play online game I played was in 2006 it was an enjoyable experience, made some really good friends for the two months I was on the game. After that everything online just didn't compare, except for LoL maybe, just... I won't get my hopes up, and I won't be badly disappointed, but might very pleasantly suprised.

The most obvious comparison I can think of is World of Tanks, which is in my opinion one of the best F2P games out there. If they can expand on the customization elements and offer some sort of narrative while also having a system that lets you get into the action quickly, this will be a "dreams come true" game for me.

Makes an interesting read, even if I did only briefly skim over it, but at least I picked up the most important bits.
I can read over it properly later.

I thought of this game aswell. But there are also MMOs... like Runes of Magic with a working F2P system. All content availible and just some extra for higher comfort. Like... a slightly faster mount and stuff like that. So it is not at all impossible to work out a good F2P system.

Nearly had me a nerdgasm with that line! This is just what I wanted to hear.
And Multiple Lance vs Lance battles sounds cool too.
And Advanced Joystick controls.
And "Information Warfare" being a key to Team victory.
And Aug.1 2012 = Aug1. 3049 (possible a Freudian slipped Launch date perhaps)
Good info and resettle the nerves for sure.
