I was playing an Everquest 2 trial from station.com and i wanted to buy the game.
My friend can sell me a cd-key of EQ2 The Shadow Odyssey.
Can I activate a trial account with this key? Or do i have to got somethin else?
Also i have now 12 days trial left and if i activate it, will i have 42 days of play? Or just 30?
Calthine is correct, the extra 30 days free would only be with a brand new account. If you activated the game fully from your trial account, you would not get an extra 30 days.
From my understanding, once you activate the game with a purchased key (which, personally I agree with tripodvi, you should consider purchasing TSO yourself from SOE's web site or a retailer), the game will automatically convert and your trial period will end.
I know from a couple of EQ friends who ran the trial recently that it can be pretty limiting (no houses, broker, trading, or going past level 20--eek!), so if you feel that you have exhausted all that you can in the trial, then now would be the time to move on. Otherwise, use up your remaining free days while you can. :) Free == good! (though the full EQ2 experience == better!)
