If you are 1.0 weren't you supposed to just get the game like ys legacy folk?

I've tried to log in and it won't let me use my characters and I have to use the "second" one on the list which doesn't have my character, wtf?

This issue might be due to an error that Square has halted on registering your account from games that were bought digitally. That might have affected people who have bought the game whether they bought it digital or physical copy, which might be conflicting with it or something. So maybe it's a bug when people get this the system isn't letting you because of the restrictions on registering that are stopped temporarily for now. I could be wrong though.

You were, but apparently this is not the case anymore.

I was playing here recently and glitched underground.. I figured I'd try to log off and try to log back on. It said I had some random error, and then I try to register my code for PS3 and it does not work D: ..

[Niadissa]

if you bought the digital version, you would have gotten an e-mail with a code that looks like this "xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx"

my brother had the same issue, we found the code in our e-mail, entered it in and it let him back on

Basically what it's telling you is that you either need to register a new game code, or set up a payment option. I'm a 1.0 player as well (non-legacy, didn't play after the extended free period ended until 2.0), and when I went into the Mog Station it showed the game registered to my account. All I had to do was set up payment options and I was set. Things are working fine for me.

A friend of mine also had issues with being able to activate their account though, because for some reason it wasn't showing the game on their service account (despite being sure it was the right account, and the CD key of the 1.0 box stating it was already used).

If you need to buy the game you could still use digital resellers like g2play (reliable site, used it frequently), who resell game codes off physical boxes. They still have the game in stock according to their site, so if you need a game key they have it available (and delivery is within minutes of ordering)

Does anyone else have a 1 and 2 tab on their mog station, I don't understand how I can have two accounts under one account all i did was register my code.

No one wants to lose yet ANOTHER weekend, but this time due to an account management screw up. That'll down right make people say fuck it, lol.

But it's not an account management screw up. It's a player screw up for rushing and not really looking at what they are doing. 99.9% of account related issue are player related due to impatience (That number is of course pulled out of the thin air of the Interwebs), but the vast majority of us are playing fine and not having a single problem. This is because we received our cdkeys for Standard or Collectors and we took our time to review the Mog Station and find the correct links to upgrade and not create a brand new account or to the degree of some players who though the Early Access code was all they needed.

Many issues can be fixed by simply ... taking the time to think
