Heavensward and people with multiple license code: how it will work?

[Raffounz]

Ok,
sunday we have a live on Heavensward preorder/features etc. I hope they will ask or answer to this question: I have 2 license off ff14, PC and PS4: will I have to buy 2 license of Exp? How will it make sense if I buy a PC license and level up to level 60, then go back to PS4 if I have not purchased license? revert to 50? And if i log out on PC in a 3.0 area, I will be reverted to an area of 2.0 on console?

All this to say... i think it will be one license for all paltforms, I can't find any sense in having the exp per platform since account is cross platform and Character is binded to the account, not the platform...

We'll see.

They already have experience with this in their former mmo FF11, usually what happens is that certain features such as the jobs and levels can be kept without the expansion being registered in both systems and this is also assuming that you unlocked the new jobs and reached the new level cap; however, if you logoff in a expansion area you will not be able to log on again unless you register the expansion in the system that doesn't have it, or you would have to log on in the system that has the expansion and move to a 1.0 area.

you would have to log on in the system that has the expansion and move to a 1.0 area.

You would have to go

to do that

It would be wise to anticipate that, yes, you'll need to buy BOTH a PC and PS4 license. I will be surprised (albiet pleasantly surprised) if they allow players who play on multiple platforms to upgrade them all at once with one license.

Brightshadow has the right idea of what you can expect to see. You can play on the un-upgraded platform and still retain all levels, equipment, jobs, etc that you picked up in the new areas. The only thing you will not be able to do is enter expansion areas - and if you happened to log out in an expansion area, you won't be able to log in at all on that character on an un-upgraded platform.

I played FFXI on both PS2 and PC. The Seekers of Adoulin expansion was released for PC only outside of Japan (which is the only place to have gotten a PS2 release for that expansion). So, when playing on PC (expansion included), I was able to unlock jobs, earn equipment and so on and so forth in the new areas, and I could use all this stuff even while playing on PS2 (no expansion). If I logged out in an Adoulin area, though, I could not log in on PS2 until I moved my character to a non-Adoulin area.

I guess I will buy PS4 and a cheaper KEY on internet for PC.
