Originally posted by MisterSr okay, so does this mean we have to have payed for a month to get a month? I am so confused right now, where do we enter in credit card info, where am I supposed to get a gamecard? No, you only need to add your credit card only to have a payment method after the 30 free days. You will not be billed untill then. First, go to "use a serial code" , enter it, then create your game account. At the next page you will see few options on how you can pay AFTER 30 days, including credit card, game card and paypal . As i said, you need to google : Aion gamecard in order to buy a gamecard 30/60 days. Reporter: What's behind Blizzard success, and how do you make your gamers happy?

Originally posted by Kon85 Originally posted by Hepisodic As far as I know when you register your account with Ncsoft, they ask for your CC and payment option. You don't get charged for the first month cause it's free but i'm almost 100% sure you need a CC or gamecard on it like any MMO. When I created my account I was not asked these things. Nor can I enter them now. I guess it can't be helped at the moment...I'll try logging in when the headstart "starts" and see if I can play until I get the retail code. I will be extremely pissed if I cannot enter into the headstart. I know in Warhammer's headstart you didn't have to enter any information to play, you just played. I would hope it would be the same here.

Unless you gotten the Serial # from your game copy I'm almost 100% sure you can't get into the headstart, although i guess i should say 99.9% sure because there is always the possibility that I'm wrong. The preorder code that got you into the beta's doesn't get you into the headstart, at least i don't believe it does, but for your sakes I hope so. Veritas Vos Liberabit- The truth will set you free.

Well that would be ridiculous because those of us who ordered with retailers such as gamestop have to wait till tuesday to purchase the game.

I was required to enter payment info when I activated the account on the NCSoft program. It asked me how frequently I would like to make the payments and for my payment info. I don't think you could miss that step. Maybe you haven't even activated your account yet? "Can't... Sleep... The Carebears... Will get... Their way..."

I just called gamestop, they said monday, but they said there should be no issues getting into the head-start, because more than half the pre-orders do not have their retail key yet. Also, on the pre-order card case, it says you get a headstart and pre-selection, so if you can get into the pre-selection you can get into the headstart.

Every headstart I've been in didn't require the retail serial code until the day of release. Some even give a couple days extension(as Aion devs have said they will). The pre-order/beta key was all that was needed.
