Should be able to. Just look for the Customer Service number for FFXI and go from there. Shouldn't be much effort to change the billing plan.

Payment methods can be changed at any time, as long as the new info you put in is valid.

Murphy's Law: "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong."

Ok, let me describe my day yesterday. I went to the nearest university to my house yesterday and took the ACT. (Yesterday was a national test date). I had to get up at 5:45 PM to go take the test. After taking it, I went to wal-mart to seek the game. I bought it for the PS2, along with a network adapter. Then I needed a keyboard. I couldnt find a USB keyboard ANYWHERE. I ended up finding one in this little computer store for $25.

I come home, and run a phone line to my room and install my new 40gig harddrive and my network adapter. I plug everything up, then begin to install PlayOnline. It works perfectly (even though it took like 3 hours.) Then I click the "install" button in the POL navigator, and install the other DVD it came with...the FFXI one.

Then I go to "game", and click "FFXI". I purchase a content ID. Then I click "play". It tells me I need to download updates. So I start to download them. When it is "preparing system to update", it completes, but IMMEDIATLY after it completes this, a window pops up and says "error (insert number here)". It tells me that the network is busy, or that I have communication problems, or my settings arent correct. I know that my hardware is working, because I can connect to the internet and everything on my PS2. I think my settings are right...I dont know what I could do to change it.

So right now I am reinstalling the FFXI disc. If this doesnt work, I guess I'll have to use 3 more hours to install Play Online.

And I have a few questions:
1. How do I create two handles on one member ID on playonline?

2. World Pass? anyone? lol

Re: FFXI impressions
 

ominub can provide a world pass. He has enough money to do it:p

And you should be able to create 2 profiles in FFXI. Just I think its $1 more a month for each other character you make.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

Heh...I just didnt want to ask ominub because I got one off of him a while back for a friend of mine.

And I know how to create more FFXI accounts, I want to me able to create more PlayOnline accounts, with the same ID.

Oh, and I reinstalled the FFXI disc. It still doesnt work. :mad:

grrrrrr. I dunno what to do.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

I asked my dad if he'll buy FFXI for me... He said to wait until (last) Thursday for him to decide. I call him and he says that he needs to gets some checks or something or other before he decides and he doesn't know when that'll be -_-

I hate it when parents (or anyone else) do that...


*shrugs and walks away*

Re: FFXI impressions
 

I doubt ominub not give you one. He's played so much he should have the money to give ya, heh. Just ask...he'll reply eventually:sneaky:

But ummm...im not sure on creating more Playonline accts unfortunately:(

Re: FFXI impressions
 

1. If you create a new charactor it will ask if you want to link it to a new handle.

2. When do you need it. If ominub doesnt, Ill get one for you I just have to walk back to bastok :(



*Edit* Oh yea almost forgot Just post in the FFXI usergroup will help you out with any question.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

Vampyr, Ill get you your world pass, Im so glad you got the game. :)

Re: FFXI impressions
 

I'm really glad too. :)

But I cant get it to work. I think my connection is too slow to get the updates. :mad:

I'm calling tech support tonight, and if that doesnt work, A friend offered to let me come over to her house to let me use her slightly faster connection. *sigh*. I'll see what I can do.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

Okay, tell me when you're ready. A World Pass lasts 5 days so I'll buy it tonight, after I talk to you on AIM.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

Take the offer. Don't piss ass around getting the updates on dialup. At it, go steal her connection and run the cable to your house

Re: FFXI impressions
 

ohhhhh thats it! you gunna pay for that one little man!!


:p

Re: FFXI impressions
 

World: Phoenix
Password: 0907270537
Days Until it Expires: 6

The world name and password is entered on the same screen that you chose your character's name on.

Re: FFXI impressions
 

ooooh. I better work fast. I need to be operational within 6 days.


Lol. It was on the GT4 thread, I believe. heh.

Well, her connection isnt that fast. :\ We both have dial up, but for some reason her connection is twice as fast as mine.

And I've been thinking...I have PC Repair first block in the morning, and my teacher is a pretty cool guy who loves video games. I have this lurking suspicion he would let me bring in my PS2 and hook it up and download the updates. lol. I just need to memorize the keystrokes because there isnt a TV in his room. One incorrect button would mess the whole thing up.

But, he has plenty of spare Ethernet cables...so it would be no problem hooking the thing up. tee hee. I might do this if Tech support cant help me....and I have a feeling that they cant.
