Still don't know whether or not I have to buy to activate my beta service character.

I just figured I would be able to start the Phase 4 client and purchase an account on my beta character and play, but I can't

So, why would SE tell us we can use the Phase 4 client to play upon release if we'd still have to buy the game anyway, instead of just activate our service accounts.

Am I missing something, or did they tell us that for literally no reason? /confused
