Hello, I played in the beta i stopped playing for a bit simply because it was not so fun alone.. my friends however started playing so i thought great! i brought Alpha and a few weapon packs, however i find out they have to make accounts on Prosieben accounts, while im on a SOE account, Can i still play with them? or have i no choice but to lose the cash invested into my character?
Yes, you can play with them - just ask on which server they are on, open servers list on creation and create a character on their server, SOE and Prosieben games/sites share the same servers.
I'm from the US but i have read many Euro's hate the prosieben accounts. Your friends may want to look into SOE accounts before they get too invested in the characters. Somewhere in these forums is a way to do that from Europe, but you'll need to search.
If they still haven't made pro7 account, I suggest them trying to make soe.com account. Afaik, that global account works for all the games (PS2) included with better cost rates and access to playerstudio items. Also, if they are totally new players, I suggest using a referral, since it gets them a boost and free LMG ( TMG-50, EM6 or SVA-88).
Actually funny thing about that. If you play through Steam on SOE account, cost of SC is in euros and if you IE. buy 500 SC, you'd have to pay 5 euros for purchase through game, while if you download non steam client, you can buy same amount of SC for 5$. It can be circumvented by using ps2.com shop and if you're like me and your currency is not euro, it's cheaper to pay in dollars so you wouldn't be changing currency 2 times per payment.
