I bought a copy of coh for a friend of mine several years ago. she used the free month but never set up a subscription. I told her the game was now free to play so she came back. I was not able to invite her to my sg when she logged in. How would she unlock sg access?

to be able to join a super group you must be reward tier 2, which means you must buy at least $5 worth of points to get a token

once your reward tier 2 your friend will also have access to tells, super group chat, coalition chat, 500 mil inf cap, and several other things

heres the link to the wiki page about the rewards

More specifically, you can earn Reward Tokens by any of the following:

1 per month subscribed
1 per year subscribed
1 per retail box code applied to your account (you can probably still find them cheap in stores or online)
1 for your first purchase of PP
1 per 1,200 PPs purchased

Thanks for the info

This is odd - if she had a copy of CoH at some point, she should have had a retail code on her account, which should have given her the second token already.

May wish to contact support about this.

This is not PER BOX. It is 1 for having one or more boxes. A maximum of one token is granted, even if you have every retail code they have ever put out (like me).

Is she using the same account that had the retail code applied to it? Are you trying to invite her from a premium account?

i am inviting her from my vip account. i called her and asked her to buy $5 worth of points to get sg access and she said that she did subscribe for a few months years ago. does she have to allocate her reward tokens to gain sg access? as she hasnt done so that might be the issue.

I believe the first few are allocated automatically, since there's no options on where to allocate them.

Shouldn't be, as Reward Token #1 is automatic for everyone (including F2P), and Reward Token 2 should automatically be filled if she had subscribed for any length of time before Issue 21 was released.

Yes I believe she does. The SG access is a reward for filling a tier of the table. Even though she has enough to do it I think the system requires she actually allocate them and fill the tier to gain the benefits.

No, Reward Tier bonuses are for acquiring the right amount of Tokens, not for filling Token Slots.

Yes, I believe this is what has been established, Snow Globe is correct. I've seen more than one example of "non-allocated" Reward Tokens but unlocked access up to or equal to the level those Tokens unlock.
