Anyone else get their CE yet? Also a question...

[Amyas]

Gotta love that new-book smell. Almost as good as old-book smell.

I assume we need to register codes on launch day, but did they ever fix the 'CE in-game items tied to disc code, therefore 1.x account holders must purchase a digital upgrade and the physical copy if they want both the ingame items and physical stuff' snafu? I did a search on the forums, didn't find anything useful.

If you bought 1.x PC standard and want ARR CE ingame items

Buy a PS3 CE and register it
Buy a Digital Upgrade on launch.

You cannot register the PC code twice on 1 account.

[Vadis]

nope, it didn't get fixed.

[Amyas]

Well crap then. I think free digital upgrades for those who bought the PC Collector's Edition are in order... you listening SE?

This is what I got when I asked them this question.

Please note your old version of the game has been automatically upgrated to Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.

As your beta code is currently linked to your Final Fantasy XIV 1.0 (which is now Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn) your Beta Licence character will remain with this service.

If you wish to continue with this account you can add the bonus item included in your collector edition 2.0 then add them in your existing service account.

You can also create a new service using your game code Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn collector edition 2.0 however your Beta Licence character will not be transfered to this service as it is currently linked to your existing Final Fantasy XIV 1.0 (which is now Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn)

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need more information.

Huh... how do we go about adding the bonus items then? Or is this another case of SE's customer support not knowing what they're talking about?

This is what I got when I asked them this question.

and everyone went "what?"

seriously... could they be more cryptic...

does this mean the code can be used to either add items or create a new account?

why don't they talk about currently active accounts VS new accounts instead of all this "V1.0(now renamed realm reborn)" ...

so confusing.

Based on my tracking order, it said that they'll come in tomorrow.. so lucky you. :/
