If you have to wonder why people have times in their lives where accessing a game, or anything else really, cannot be done. You need to expand your thinking to people such as contractors, service members, doctors, specialty trained personnel where only a few exist for large infrastructures. Having been 3 of the above mentioned: I can guarantee you times come where accessing anything other than what life has on your plate at that moment is not possible. Having paid in advance for a lower costing subscription fee, that states a status benefit for having subscribed, is not a fair thing to have taken from you atop not being able to play.
then there is a bug for replay badges. I have taken a 2 month break from the game and now have 300 replay badges... I want to adjust to the changes u guys are making but I don't understand how they good...help me see the big picture.
I can't see why you would state that, as the DCUO FB page shows why: Not everyone is as lucky as the poster of this message. Some get told 'get up and go'. In either case: It proves dificulty can exist. Most importantly: the time is already paid for. SOE / DCUO loses nothing in continuing to provide the benefits even without log ins occurring, while the paying subscriber does. I do agree that providing a different 500 amount is needed, considering how SC is usable elsewhere... But beyond that... No.
Just to be fair though it does say "benefits UPDATE" and not upgrade lol.... Also on a completely separate note, (and this is not me endorsing another game) do you think it would be stupid if I were to enter a raid in WoW with a pvp weapon only to not be able to use that weapon when I could do "world bosses and other PVE quests"?? OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT WOW! my question is why is it that I can do WORLD BOSSES AND OTHER PVE EVENTS outside of an Alert but I can't use my blasters inside an Alert! why not just completely remove PvP armour from PvE servers?? or better yet disable it all the time until you are in a pvp situation.. I don't even....
"Hi everyone, Thanks for the feedback. We listened. Here are the basics of our revised plan. Please note - we have not had the time to do estimates of the work involved, and also we're continuing to listen. so this isn't baked just yet. Do not expect that this is all going to happen immediately. We plain don't know yet. we're doing that meeting tmw. 1) We're lowering the price of All Access to $14.99 2) We're going to make it so every subscriber to all our PC games an all access member. Basically there will be one SOE membership for our PC games. Please note there are some minor restrictions around our kids titles (simply put - if you're a 12 year old who signed up for FR you won't have access to the adult games so we'll likely leave the lower priced kids offerings as separate subscriptions for under 12 for the same low prices). 3) We're keeping the 500 SC included with the subscription instead of going to the "pick an item" system. We heard you. You didn't like the change. The only change we are making is that we're now going to make you claim it monthly. You can still hoard it though I realize this is a bit of a pain but honestly it's the best compromise we could come up with that solves the problems I mentioned in the other thread. 4) we are going to be giving our members a 10% discount in our marketplaces. 5) European players - we have an idea on how to include you in this but we need to discuss with our partners.We have a pretty good idea on this though. give us a bit of time to suss this out. 6) Nothing is changing with Player Studio items - you'll still be able to buy them with your 500SC. 7) Console titles - you'll notice I only mentioned the PC titles. Our goal is to include the PS3 and PS4 games that we have, but I want to be up front and say that isn't a done deal. In a nutshell that's where our head is at. As always your feedback is welcomed. Please do us a big favor and carefully think about #3. Our goal is to give you more value in the subscription to make it more attractive and making it simpler in the process. I really feel like we're making a good decision going this route. It makes things simpler and gives more value to our players. Thanks Smed" Originally posted here:http://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/comments/1ulcav/moving_forward_with_subscription_plan_changes/ ------ * Please keep all discussion regarding the membership changes to this thread, so we can easily monitor all feedback.

Pointless to announce this on forums where 80% of the games profit comes from the PS which this doesn't include nor will PSN ever allow this to happen. However it sounds like a good deal for the PC players I suppose. Anyway we can get two armories added to PS Lengendary accounts instead of just the one?
only if you play all the other SOE games as well. personally, i can only deal with 1 game's bs from SOE. funny to see that the eq players are PO'd about something, since that's the only reason they would bother doing that.
Idk. There's a lot of craziness going on today. Having to log in once a month does sound like a bit of hindrance. Wonder why all the changes lately?
Lifetime will continue to receive the Legendary benefits which, as you can see, are in flux at the moment.
Congrats PC players for $14.99 you can now get 2000 SC. I wish the PS players would demand for better service and better perks.
So let me get this straight. It will be back to the old 500SC a month, but you got log in. Which is fine and I appreciate it! You are converting all the Legendary accounts to all access accounts and now I will have access to all SOE above 12yo games? (EQ and Planteside2?) Is this right?
This isn't accurate. Keeping the current benefit would still get you just the 500 SC per month, not per game.
That's what it sounds like, but we'll need to confirm details on how this will specifically apply for DCUO. As you can see, we're making changes based on feedback as we go.
I think you are misunderstanding what i meant. Let's say, for example, that someone was going to pay for legendary membership anyways, but had no use for the station cash in DCUO, so they planned on using it for another game instead. To them, it would make buying a year at once more worthwhile, since they wanted legendary status in DCUO anyways.
I was thinking this would be the restriction. No way could you guys give out that much SC on each game to each player per month.
Changes here are really quite good. I can see myself subbing for a very long time under this new system.
