Trial version question

My friend got me into the game and I downloaded the trial version. I upgraded and became a member a few days ago. Bought the game online. It asked if I wanted to DL the PC client. Do I need to uninstall the trial version that I've already got and DL the other one? And if I do...will I lose anything I've done? Is there a difference between the DL version and the other...other then the being able to level and all the perks of being a member.

Thanks in advance

Nope. The trial is identical to the game, it's your account info that determines if it's has trial limitations or not.

Also - while settings may be save to the computer running the client, keymaps and other character info is saved to the servers, so deleting the client won't affect your progress.

Please take the time to make sure you are upgrading the trial account instead of creating a new account. Occasionally people make that mistake and Customer Service can't merge the accounts.

In addition to what was said above, I am hoping that your forum name isn't the same as your actual, real-life name. I'm sure that it's not, but it seems like an odd forum name to choose.

If it is, you may want to consider changing it, since there are a lot of odd people on the internet, and you might not want them knowing your real name.

And only running into one or two crazies in an online community that consists of gamers is not likely.

Odds of that many posting in a thread rapidly approaches 1 when things like AE or nerfs are mentioned.

Welcome to the game! The others were right. You don't have to download the client again. It is identical to the normal client. All you have to do is apply your bought serial to your trial account. Once you do this within minutes, if not instantly, you should be able to log in to the live servers without your trial account restrictions. Also, like stated above, if you ever reinstall your client, items like graphic options since these need to be specific per computer, will not be transferred over, but all character data is stored online with your account information. You will never have to worry about losing your characters thanks to that.

Again, welcome to the game and I hope you enjoy your stay!
