Legacy Eligibility

If you hop on the bandwagon at the last second, you have no one to blame but yourself if there isn't room left for you.

Pre-ordered the game almost 2 years ago, left because of a shoddy release state. Spam filter didn't show me the email even though I never marked emails from SE as spam.

Yeah totally my fault. Stop trying to undermine me. I have just as much right as anyone. The points I'm making are all fair and valid.

If it was a case of I joined too late and will only get 2 months paid for by then, then I'm fine with that. The point I'm making is people are stating that if you haven't paid for a month by the 30th June then you cant get it, which isn't true. And also I was stating that if I get billed for the 3rd month but only get say 23 days instead of 30 because the servers go down (purely hypothetical) then I should still be eligible as I'm paying the same price and I don't see how that's different.

As I said my points are valid, I'm just complaining about lack of information really.

Honestly, I've been looking around for information on this (for my seconds account), and after asking the SE help desk i was told that you only need 3 payments made before 2.0 beta, which depending on your luck could launch at the end of october.

Thank you, this is all I'm trying my best to confirm AND this is the exact same information I've just gotten from them too. Nothing even to do with June 30th.

My 3rd month billing will be around 10th of September and unless they cut the servers off before then(which I'm fine with and accept my fate), then I should be fine for getting Legacy.

Yeah, the reason June 30th gets thrown around a lot is because that's the day where legacy access becomes a guarantee; however applying for it and getting your 3 payments in after is still feasible, albeit less likely.

Honestly though, I know 2.0 release is real important to the team, and more likely than not they will push it back. I would say our chances for making all 3 payments are pretty high.

What are you expecting? There were at least three major announcements on Lodestone (as well as a header, and the announcement always had priority over other updates), tons of forum topics, several e-mails, and you're saying there is lack of information? What do you want them to do? Come to your house, smash your windows, climb in and announce that there's a new campaign? It is not Square Enix's fault you did not check your spam folder, or that their e-mail is marked as spam in the first place. You can't blame anyone but yourself.

Sorry I don't spend all my time on forums. And I guess I'm a bad person cause I don't check my spam folder that's filled with hundreds of emails because it takes a long time.

The information I was referring to was on the Legacy page and people thinking that June 30th is a definite cut off date, which it isn't by the way. Its a date when you're guaranteed, as in if you pay after you MIGHT not have enough time it all depends when they take the servers down and seeing as I subbed shortly after I could easily have enough time unless they take the servers down in august or very early September.

If 30th was the cut off date then why still display the Legacy information and why keep something so important off all of the clearly visible information and instead put it in the forums. Its not logical.

Now stop targeting me.

Because the requirement is 3 months. Think about it for a second, if a person only paid for one month from January to June then they are still eligible til July 30/31st since they already have one month under their belts. They may post more news about Legacy stating that if you still need 2 months to pay the cut off is end of July, then make the final notification that if you still need 1 month August 30/31st is the cut off date.

As it stands now this is how they have been slowly widdling down the amount of people that can gain legacy.

-First limitation was you have to have the game registered before May.
-Second limitation was you have to start actually paying for the game by June 30th if you haven't paid for the game yet.

--------
So if you are wondering why they are still showing the legacy info it's because people who have paid 1 or 2 months already are still eligible for the benefits so the info still needs to be up there so they are aware of it.

I've been told different from SE Support even though they can be useless AND if the 30th is as important as you say it is then why isn't the Legacy page updated with that? because if so then its false advertising and people returning and wanting to pay in chances of getting it 100% cant and are basically being tricked into it.

I'm still standing by that the 30th isnt a final cut off, its exactly what I said it was. A guarantee because they don't know when the servers will be going off for 2.0 but they can generalize the area (being sometime around 3 months after June 30th).

Which makes much more sense than basically hiding "important information"
