So they announced that legacy accounts get into beta automatically. However I have 4 legacy accounts under a single SE account. Does that mean I get 4 beta accounts, one for each ffxiv service account?

I doubt they would household check the entry. Since many households are actually of many players (families/gf/bf) -

Having more than one ffxiv legacy service account won't really matter since all legacy members will be added to the beta automatically...
-
01-03-2013, 05:38 AMShougunYeah that's their question I believe lol - that they get 4 beta invites basically. Since all 4 of their accounts are legacy. (That the accounts apply for beta, the question).Quote:

4 Legacy under one account? How does that work..? can you login on 2 chars at once? Anyway I have 2 legacy accounts, they get invites seperately.

01-03-2013, 05:44 AMShougunIf you were in beta you have a beta account. I'd bet they just registered multiple copies of the game under one SE account.Quote:

01-03-2013, 05:46 AMJacienYou could register multiple XIV CD Keys under 1 Square-Enix account. For example, the Buddy Pass from the CE was actually a full CD Key. So my account has two Services, XIV 1 is my main one and it has Legacy. The secondary service, XIV 2, was disabled for a while and doesn't have Legacy.Quote:

When you apply for Alpha/beta, you do it at the SE account level, not the ffxiv service account level. Since the whole family plays, we'd all like to be able to participate in the beta.
With multiple xiv srevice accounts you can log in to multiple ffxiv characters at once, but they're billed seperately, so for one SE account i was paying just over $60 for 4 xiv accounts and 2 xi accounts. -
01-03-2013, 05:54 AMShougunI'd call bull and talk to SE if they didnt give you 4. Depending on how their system goes they may have to do it manually (then you'd really have to call) but they said Legacy players get in and you have four Legacy accounts.Quote:

I think the alpha was one SE account get the invite meaning only one person not the other within the account i could be wrong tho let's hope beta is not like that if that true.

I'm sorry if this has been asked a thousand times but I didn't understand the timeline.
Legacy is automatically accepted to beta, yes? So legacy doesnt need to go through the application process? Is it attached to all accounts upon beta start? -
01-04-2013, 09:46 AMKiritoI'm assuming so. Just wait till the beta application. It will likely say if you have to do the application or not. But you likely will if you want to play the ps3 beta...Quote:

Mm, there's no guarantee I'll play beta, though in my free time I turn into a giddy little kid at the thought of the new shiney.
It'll be nice being with everyone again, saving the world together and adventuring.
