LEGACY question!

[Reiterpallasch]

So since I started way back when the game came out (a week early, thanks to the collectors edition), and played for months despite the crap storm that the game was, I get nothing for it?

But someone who only recently started playing after snatching the game off a shelf for like $5 during a time when most of the huge issues with the game are fixed, get to be "legacy" and get special mounts and such for it? Yaaaaaaaaaaay.

the legacy explanation clearly states that you need to have paid for 3 months. Chances are, you bought the game, played for a short time then quit. This isn't being loyal to the game and SE wants to give something special to those that were loyal to the game. It seems fair to me.

They stuck with the game when it cost money to play, you didn't at the time. This was all detailed very specifically a long time ago, though, and anyone who did not read up on it... well, you didn't read up on it, did you? You can't really complain about how you hung around a game for a long time when it was free but that one person who paid for it for three months during the time that the offer was on (and it was emailed to all registered characters, so you were informed clearly and directly) and subsequently has paid more towards the game than you have... well, I don't need to really continue, surely? xD

It's all good in the long run, though, the items won't be "must-haves" I'm sure.

You get nothing for it if you then put down the game after subscription started and waited waaaay too long to start again, yes.

Hey, just wondering. If i paid for 1 month playtime in April, then I paid for this month (aug). Will I be eligible for legacy when I pay for next months subscription?

You should as it's cumulative and not concurrent...which people always seems to get confused by. That is if we are still able to resub in September.

Depends on your account creation -- if it was made in april it's possible, but beta is next month and you needed 90 days before the start of beta, so it's iffy at that point.

Jumping the gun a little bit, we actually have no solid date on when beta starts(unless something was announced yesterday that I missed). We only know that it will be in Autumn which is quite vague.

They said end of Sept/Early October with recent word that unless things get pushed back (but are currently on track) it will happen in November. There's no exact day of say September 26th or October 10th, but we do know the ranges of the first beta and it looks like they're still on track -- we also recently heard of open betas later in the year, so which beta they were referring to it's TBD, however we do know closed betas are right around the corner unless they changed that.

We also know there were 2 deadlines set - May 31st (new accounts) and June 30th (90 day plan finale) for guaranteed legacy status.

Get over yourself. Your not anymore special than someone who actually paid attention to the game and acted on a sweet offer.
