    hey you the same dev from the 14 forum? if so omg isn't this daja vue for ya?simple put time cards/point card DO NOT work in exact inciments. They charge even amounts so a person can buy several mnths in advance. So not to points every mnth.

    That is simply how they work. Instead of raging over point buying LEARN HOW TO USE IT TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. I played Aion and WoW both of these use time cards. I also play on the 360, ps3. And I also played maple story and mabinogi. And learned how point cards work. And use them to my advantage. It is always goo to have extra points in your account to cover any "i want to add a character"

    Simply put. Just buy $20 every 2 mounths that should cover the cost.

    Probably because EU is closer to Japan and have more player over there, that do not mean SE wont in future add more option like using paypal. Give them time ^^ they just got ride of playonline...

    first i just thought "Why?" but now i remember. every week before the bill is due, playonline billing goes down!! you cant make any changes cuz they are going through every single member trying to figure out who's good. or something. and i know they get a ton of calls about double billing because until i understood it, i would call! this just makes it into you having to pay up front. i never understood why anyone would think we WANT to buy points... then spend them on paying for the game. as if there was any other reason to have this new currency :P

    but i agree the old system sucked. even if the new one isnt better for the members. but at least i can cancel my account the day before it bills me now.

    I, for one, will be canceling my account as a result of this. There is absolutely no good reason that I should have to sign up with a 3rd party company to pay for a game I've been playing on-and-off for the last 8 years.
    Does allowing us to PAY for the game via 3rd party software mean that we can PLAY the game via 3rd party software (windower)?
    Horribly move SE.

    Stop being a drama queen, you DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN-UP TO A THIRD-PARTY TO PAY, it's a CHOICE SE gives you, there are alternatives which don't need a sign-up to anything.

    there is only 1 choice they give which you don't have to sign up for anything. Game cards. everything else (paypal,playspan) requires you to sign up to a service.

    The thing is, not all of us have played/will play ffxi for 8 years straight.

    I've been playing ffxi since the ps2 release, but I also take breaks anywhere from a month to two + years, to play other games. As is I was planning on stoping in a few months to go try out KotOR. It'll probably suck, but who knows? maybe I'll love it and stick with it for 2years, I have for other games. And crysta expires after 2 years:

    The fact I'm being forced to either do click and scam or play ffxi a lot longer than I would anticipate is ridiculous. Especially when the JP can buy crysta in exact amounts/directly pay with a CC. Just because it's ok for you doesn't mean we can't voice our complaints in hopes they make things better.

    It's not really a choice. It's a decision between which is the better of two evils. If you're on a tight budget, then you don't exactly want to be overpaying for something - why should we? I "understand" it's related to the Sony/PS3 data theft incident, but instead of Square-Enix dealing with online security directly, they've dumped that task onto their consumers' shoulders. We are now having to undertake the online security risk ourselves dealing with this "dodgy" third-party company (ClickandBuy).

    I'm furious that the Japanese are being given preferential treatment in this matter, as always. If you ever needed proof that Square-Enix treats their playerbase differently depending on where they live, you've got it right there. Not the first time I've seen it and I doubt it'll be the last! We are not second-class citizens because we don't live in Japan.

    Sorry but I'm really, really confused... from what I've been reading I formulated the idea you could use Paypal to buy Crysta. Now, I'm in Europe (Portugal, if it matters) and want to select Crysta as the selected method. While transfering my account I decided I'd buy some Crysta just in case before I did so. I selected "Add crysta", chose the 20€ option and then I can only pick between ClicknBuy and Ultimate Pay. Question is, "How can I buy crysta with Paypal?"
    Sorry if it's been asked before, but I really can't sort the mess in my head alone.

    I realize that if you play long enough, the math works itself out. But if you don't, you won't get your money's worth. Not getting one's money's worth is, frankly, a rip-off.
    If you're not on the game RIGHT NOW you're not getting your money's worth. 1 month's (30 days) worth of play time = $12.95 , if you don't make use of that full 30 days you're not getting your money's worth. Rip-off.

    That's why your logic is flawed.
