Don't know about that, but I know they're already reaching out to people with inactive subs. They sent me a free code for 30 days game time because I cited financial reasons as my main reason for leaving.

Funny. I think this would be one of the worst times to do something like this. Between everyone playing more than usual, and the merger of the markets, the instability of the global servers... adding more people to the mix would be one of the dumbest decisions in MMO history.|

What they should do is wait a month or so for things to settle down, then start pushing the new Praetorian experience with trials.

I believe that position will be held by a certain company's ReadID decision (regardless of their quick about-face on that one.)

There's always room for debate at the top.
RealID vs NGE: FIGHT!

Nah, I cant see CoH do any where near the stupid crap they have pulled in Aion. That game is going to tank if they dont get their act together. What worked in Korea definately isnt going to work in the USA.

That's a toughy. *breaks out the popcorn* I actually had to look up realid, and man, terrible idea. And I've never seen anyone get turned off a game so fast as my husband did when they announced NGE, so yeah.

I wonder if they are tied to accounts. I got one for my second account recently as well.

Personally I hope they will wait two weeks to give the rest of us some time playing GR and to shake out any problems caused by stressing the servers as well as new bugs. The servers have been pretty unsteady of late and you want to be on your best behavior when new people come to visit.
Also without buying GR, old players aren't going to be able to get at much of the new content.
