As much as I'd like to see some of the free trial restrictions lifted or eased, I don't see that happening any time soon.
But what I would like to see is that it's made obvious to anyone else around me that I'm on the free trial and that I can't send tells or join FCs. I hate feeling like an antisocial jerk and that I'm ignoring people who are trying to be friendly to me, but the reality is I simply have no way to respond to them.![]()
This was a problem when I originally made the free trial account a few years ago, and now with the extended trial it's even more confusing to those around me.
Just a reminder:
Free Trial Players cannot use the "shout", "yell" or "tell" in-game chat options during the Free Trial.
Free Trial Players cannot create or join a Free Company during the Free Trial.
