Post questions or problems regarding Early Access and Preorder Codes here

[MrSativa]

This is whats going on
The point that most people are making is that, this isn't occuring even after we link the accounts. I've launched the PS3 version, gone through the whole linking process, watched as the mog cap and cait sith minion was manually added to my 1.0 service account that included the Windows version, the windows beta, and the PS3 beta, and yet I still can only log into the Ps3 version and not the PC version. Using the same credentials for each version, I get a completely different message(wait until EA or no active service account).


A MONTH AGO:

player asked:
Let's say I bought the old game, and never received Legacy status. If I want to get early access on the PC, all I have to do is pre-order a copy of the new version right? If I buy the PS3 version instead, does that mean I have to play on PS3 during the early access period?

MOD hvinire responded:

As long as you pre-order, the PS3 version can be linked to your pre-existing FFXIV account to play early on the PC version.

This will also allow you to play on either the PS3 or PC with the same service account. However, you won't be able to log in with both at the same time. As long as this isn't a problem, you should be fine purchasing the PS3 version.

Did you rebuy the game though?

no...I still have the same ps3 preorder. he just gave me a new preorder code over the phone when he looked my name up and saw I had an active preorder.

He was curious because he bought the 1.0 Collector's edition. He thought you were able to get a code without purchasing the game (a second time).

Anyone know information about pre-order items are they for all characters you have? Cause for me and noticed from other posts that when trying to link PS3 to your account it only list one character even if have more then one character.

So if you didn't register your early access code the launcher does indeed say not an active service account?

Is there any confirmation on this?

It's a collection of responses. People who are having trouble inputting their registeration codes are getting this error.
People who have recieved confirmations on entering their codes successfully, are reciving the unclickable play button (just like in the beta access)

Oh, sounded like he was asking if I bought a second preorder. I'm a 1.0 Collector's edition owner and preorded the normal ps3 version abouit a month ago since it was stated that you would need the ps3 version to get early access with 1.0 non legacy accounts. I was one of the many that got an european early access code that showed up invalid when I tried to enter it in the playstation store. Called gamestop today and explained the error and he gave me a new code that I registered for PC this time instead of Ps3. Now my early access is good to go on PC. Hope that clears all that up.

I just want two know when they are going to fix this EU code mess. I'm on PS3 and took me forever when they messed up last week to download the game and such. i don't feel like a repeat of last weekend.

I purchased my CE from the SE store and from what I'm gathering from the insane amount of posts all over the place NA SE purchasers have not received codes yet, correct?

I received a serial number when I ordered and tried that but I get "Invalid Code"

I remember why I was turned off by FF before and it wasn't the game. SE account management is totally confusing as all get out.

No wrong. Only the EU SE store people had / have delays getting codes.
