    "Going to download the game and try it out finally" (once the key shows up in my mail box that is), I have been thinking of giving it a go for a while. Now I will have the chance :)

    Games should do this more often. Especially struggling games, at least get people to look at the game, might even get some people to sub to it too.  7 days is not enough, you almost feel rushed.

    A full month before paying for anything is pretty smart, imho.  So many older games like EQ2, Vanguard, SWG should do something like this.

    I fell cheated, I got the key by mistake. It's going to be deactivated soon. This was the worst thing that happened to me this week, DAMN YOU, MMORPG.COM!!!!

    I have also won a copy. For me it's just gonna be a try-out, a little gankfest with other contest winners and I'm almost sure I'm gonna give it away to a more serious player once my month ends so funcom can still make money of this contest. I guess I'm not the only one, so for those wanting  a free account, make sure you lurk around or message me after a month.

    I agree, it is great marketting and they company will earn money if just a few of the people pay for another month.

    I guess SOE is way too cheap to give out anything for free (I play EQ2 myself, but SOE do make uncle Scrooge look like santa).

    But at least Mythic should use this tactic also, they need players. That Erling guy knows his work.

    Funny that you mention that, I was given EQ2 and all expansions with 3 months of game time by SOE a year or so ago. AT the time I really didn't have the time to play, to bad haha I wish I did now. I don't even know why I was given all that, think quite a few ex SWG/eq2 players got it.

    Really? So you have to buy the game anyway without being able to continue monthly paying? crap :( So I might just give it away after a week or so.

    No, it's the normal 30 days free, then you pay monthly from there on out as normal. You basically just got the box for free (well in this case the digital DL).

    Thats what I thought. Gorilla messed me up by saying that accounts are free. From what I see here it's 20$, so it's still worth something after my free days are over, right?

    No you don'thave to buy the game.  The reverse there is no need to biy the game anymore. You can start with a free trial and then start paying subs. Or you can choose to  buy the game for under $10 (well I paid 5 pounds sterling) and have a 'free' 30 days.

  • JazqaJazqa Member Posts: 465

    Downloading it atm. Let's see if I like it or not.  I give it a try anyways. I'm bored atm and trying to find new MMO so I it' was good time to win it :)

    I'm still little confused. Is it american or european copy? How can I play as long as possible, can I save the key and take the trial first? 

  • BroGamingPageBroGamingPage Member UncommonPosts: 492

    Fact is this, it's free. I won a copy and am glad I did. My sub ended last week for AOC and I'm up in NY visiting family and my uncle really wants to play. On his computer it looks amazing in DX10 whereas on my pc it barely runes, ahaha. But anyways, now I'm going to give him this copy and he can now play with me which he's excited about. I'm such a great nephew. What's great about AOC is most skills are used with combos and it has fatalities as well. Amazing graphics. Really a unique game that is pretty fun to play. Plus you can be powerleveled if you're in a big guild that powerlevels players. They can just run you through high level mobs to level you quickly. :)

    Do these keys provide any special mounts or goodies? :)

    Oh, I see now. Thank you.

  • SkeeterxiSkeeterxi Member Posts: 265

    I wish I could use this key to give my old account a free 30 days.

  • Redline65Redline65 Member Posts: 486

    Can the key we won be used to upgrade a trial account to get the 30 days so I can use my character from the trial? Or would I have to create a new account with it?

  • sassoonsssassoonss Member UncommonPosts: 1,132

    gratz to all who won

    looking forward to seeing you all in the game
