Standard 1.0 / Legacy -> phisical CE purchase

[SaikaSyvari]

i just refuse to do iether, why should we have to?
we paid for this game twice, most of use played both Alpha AND beta, id like to just use my code and carry on, i was so happy with my game when it came and so excited about getting my rewards, but yeah, that died very very fast....

Yea, it makes no sense to do so, but it wouldn't be the stupidest thing I've spent money on... Top of the list is 2 server transfers on FFXI and then I quit in like 2 days lol >.>;;

indeed, very shady way of doing things. its so simple as to add the key to the account plus its benefits (30 day gameplay and special items) ............. very disappointed at EE

The silly thing is... all they need to do is let us DELETE the old service from the account, pretty sure that would fix it.

I'm in the same boat, as is my partner who already opened her physical CE, and wants the loot, but she shouldn't have to fork over ANOTHER 20 bucks just to get her ingame stuff.

If anyone from Square happens to read this. We are not asking for much, most of us are happy with what we have paid for our physical or digital editions, and want the contents of whatever physical package we bought. All we ask is to be able to add the code to the accounts, not jump through another silly hoop simply because we bought your old game.

This is beyond BS. This is quite possibly the worst freakin thing ever. This is some serious shady practice.

I spent 80 bucks for a paper weight now.

[Talaya]

yup we paid $80 for a paperweight XD
i hope they fix it, we shouldnt have to pay extra to get what we already paid for!

[divinehope]

Well they can go screw because I am not spending anymore more money on this crap.

This is the issue my brother is facing, we bought two CE copies, i had the 1.0 CE so i didn't need to use my key and gave it to a friend.

He had the 1.0 standard edition, and intended to use the ARR CE to upgrade his account, only to find now that you cannot do so at all, only make a seperate service account to use it. He's a legacy player, like me, so he's NOT going to make a seperate service account and not get to use his legacy character.

Please allow CE codes to upgrade existing accounts, make them usable in the bonus code redemption menu.

This whole thing just does not make any sense to me right now, I guess I am just angry. Oh well, hope you enjoy my money SE.

Hope they allow this soon. Bought the CE for friend and found out that she can't use it because she has an Version 1.0 Account.
