Secret World Legends News - With the launch of Secret World Legends coming in mere minutes, players have been wondering about the benefits of becoming a Patron. Game Director Romain Amiel has a great graphic to show off exactly what is in store for anyone choosing to become a SWL patron.

Hopefully it's just an issue they are working on and not a problem that they have no way to handle.
Saw on reddit that a lot of people with old TSW accounts can't login either. P.S. Literally after I wrote this I managed to log, so they either have fixed it or I'm just lucky
You can keep the old client, but you do need to download the Secret World Legends one to play SWL. TSW stays up as a separate game alongside SWL.
Just login with your old account info, and then on the website you get an option to transfer stuff over.
My SWTOR referral link for those wanting to give the game a try. (Newbies get a welcome package while returning players get a few account upgrades to help with their preferred status.)

So now I have two copies of the game installed. And a message on the launcher telling me if I want the original game back I have to download the old launcher again, and then presumably re-install.
*sigh* Not the worst launch I have been through to be fair and it wasn't as though I was chomping at the bit to play either Secret World anyway.
Funcom...

Nope.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
what a bunch of BS, so I actually have to spend money on something I bought a lifetimer for, if I even want bigger backpacks or characters?
You bought lifetime for the secret world, not secret world legends... you can still play the secret world afaik
Installed SWL from the downloadable launcher to a separate directory to TSW that I already had installed. Its patched and works fine.
Fired up TSW from the original Icon on my desktop and it proceeded to patch itself and now when I run that it fires up SWL ?
So how exactly do I fire up the original game? Makes no sense.....

Turns out my username initially had a swl: prefix. So, try entering swl:username and your password and see if that lets you login to the SWL page. From there you can merge accounts and download the new client. After that my UN dropped the swl: prefix.
a) constant question of people asking what to do (even tho the answer have been given 4 secs earlier... as always)
b) people complaining about stuff they simply DID NOT UNDERSTAND
c) random trolls appearing who obviously NEVER liked TSW, and no think "uh it's a reboot, i go play now, and i don't like, me bitch again!"
hint of the day: if you wanna play in peace, disable the chat for the weekend.

No fate but what we make, so make me a ham sandwich please.
