Same World Character Creation

[Sapirka]

I have a standard legacy account and my server isn't closed for character creation but I can't create a second character on my server. I'm receiving a, "you already have a character on this world, please choose another one" message. Has anyone encountered this issue?

The basic sub only lets you have one character per world with a max of 8 characters. The slightly more expensive sub allows up to 8 per world with a total of 40. That should be the only reason you can’t. Although I’m not a legacy player, so maybe the subs work different for you guys, but I thought the main differemce was just that your subs are a couple of dollars cheaper? If there are still two tiers of subs for you then that would be your issue.

From what i'm finding online the two sub options are entry and standard, with standard allowing multiple characters on the same server. I have the standard sub, so unless i'm missing something i believe i have the correct sub?

Yeah that sounds like a problem, I only purchase the entry sub and it clearly says so when I log into the omg station. If yours says standard then I’m not sure why you are being restricted as that’s the entire point of the standard sub. Maybe you need to restart the game if you literally just upgraded to standard? Otherwise I hope you can get some official assistance since this is clearly an issue.
