Legacy until September 2012 :)

[Vicious]

Can a FFXIV staff member please confirm this with a post? OP's email could have just been an automated type response.

What do you need confirmed? There's nothing new in these notifications...

The "register-by" dates mentioned in previous lodestone posts are simply them taking the end of September and subtracting the requsite number of days in order to qualify for legacy.

I will have paid for 90 days this Saturday. I really hope its not too late. I started playing before I knew there was a Legacy campaign (April 7). Legacy would be a pretty good bonus for me.

Hope someone can confirm the email and good luck to others in the same situation.

That would've made a "register by" date of June 30th.

Fulfilling the Requirements for the Legacy Campaign

Players Currently Within the 30-Day Free Trial Period
Players who began playing as of May 2012 and have registered for a 90-day period before June 30, 2012 will be able to fulfill the requirements needed to qualify for the Legacy Campaign.

Current Players
Players who have subscribed for at least 90 cumulative days since January 6, 2012 will be able to fulfill the requirements needed to qualify for the Legacy Campaign.

Returning Players
Players who played before January 5, 2012 and wish to resume playing again will need to register for a 90-day subscription before Saturday, June 30, 2012 in order to fulfill the requirements needed to qualify for the Legacy Campaign.

We have prepared an FAQ on the forums to assist players with further questions.
Information regarding the transition from the current game to version 2.0 will be announced on the Lodestone in the future.

Is that not what it says?

Perhaps the confusion stems from this...?

In order to fulfill the requirements for the Legacy Campaign, a player must register his/her copy of the game no later than Thursday, May 31, 2012, and have subscribed for a minimum of 90 days beyond the conclusion of your free trial period.

okay so basically if you tried to get legacy by registering the game now (July) you won't get it.
thats why they took away the 90 days sub end of june (july-august-september is roughly 90 days), so you don't just wait until early september and then just click 90 days and get legacy.

[Hysterior]

yes, if you register after the new billing system you cannot get it

So I registered my game and did the free month trial back in february/march. I just resubbed again starting a couple days ago. Now, If I sub for this month (30 days), then for August (30 days) it will ask me to sub for another 30 days at the start of September and not at the end.

Will I still get Legacy? I would have technically paid for 90 days before the end of September, but I am still very confused lol.

[Hysterior]

it should yeah
we will be fixed in september

sweet, I was a bit curious. I was never even informed from an email about legacy at all untill my friend told me a week ago xD. I kinda lost all attention from FF XIV, I knew about 2.0 but wasn't paying any attention to anything else :P.

Thanks for the info!
