That's funny) I thought buy 1 month and receive 6 for free :D

That's not good offer imho

Megatron Apr 28, 2009, 12:59 PM #3

Could be better.. but it's a good bonus, even so. ^^

I want a 5th anniversary box from L2 with all gracia updates! Will be there one?

EDIT: Also, why the new ncsoft site doesnt offer all on the store which were offered on the older web sites store? I mean, there are no more t-shirts and even not the collection box for the 4th anniversary...why that?

Nice. :)

Good Idea ... but I'm not going to pay for 6 months or a year in order to get a free month or two ... and then finally get tired of bots and quit playing after I spent all the money ... I might if they tossed in a free 7 day time card ...

diss Apr 28, 2009, 2:06 PM #10

no thanks

People who already purchase 6 to 12 month subscriptions would benefit from this offer, but people like me who only pay month to month will see no benefit.

Maybe they figured it just might push people like me to purchase a 6 month subscription. Doing the math, its only around 15% savings...

Bump it to maybe purchasing 12 months and receive 3 months free, then maybe i just might....

Basically, buy more get more....

Is better would give to everyone on 1 month of free game. :p

why would you want a 7 day game time card instead of a free month?

SoulMagic Apr 28, 2009, 2:43 PM #15

Thanks k2skier and Draconz got it now :)

It was sarcasism

SorchaEilan Apr 28, 2009, 3:19 PM #18

So, I payed for a year on both my accounts earlier in the year.. do I get the bonus??

Draconz Apr 28, 2009, 3:20 PM #19

No, you need to aqquire it now if you want the tiny bonus.

k2skier Apr 28, 2009, 3:23 PM #20

You would have to resubscribe now for the bonus time. But it said that anyone could stack this time onto their current plan so you could buy it now and get the big bonus still.

BlueVelvet Apr 28, 2009, 10:10 PM #21

LOL, this game won't be around in 6 months!

SneezingTiger Apr 29, 2009, 1:15 AM #22

Currently on a 3month subscription. Wont be able to claim a free month till christmas basically.

And the saved money is really not significant

Tavi Apr 29, 2009, 7:58 AM #23

Note if you are set up to pay monthly you have to first cancel that and then you will see the option to add time.

OrochiGirl Apr 29, 2009, 8:11 AM #24

The best part is, if you're already a subscriber you can still take advantage of the savings. The bonus months will be added or "stacked" on top of your current plan!

Do these two sentences give the impression that bonus months are automatically added to those who subscribed for six months or twelve months before this "offer" appeared?

Going from a 3 month to 6 month subscription not only lowers your month fee, but the bonus month further discounts the amount since you get 7 months for the price of 6.

Seriously?! This game is going to be around for another 5+ years...

OrochiGirl Apr 29, 2009, 2:15 PM #28

nope

Okay.........

Then can anyone explain just how a current subscriber "can still take advantage of the savings"?

serelina Apr 29, 2009, 4:34 PM #29

it'd be exciting if you purchased 6 months and you got into the closed aion or blade and soul beta...

...or maybe do like sony did and you subscribe to one game and you actually got a subscription to several.

Megatron Apr 29, 2009, 4:36 PM #30

That's so... OB!

If I read the news posting correctly. Current subscribers can buy in and have that time added/stacked onto their current subscription.

Well, then, NCWest really must be more specific. How about:

"If you're already a subscriber, you must still purchase a six-month plan or twelve-month plan to take advantage of the savings."

Too bad these "savings" can't be retroactive to a certain date. I'm sure there are subscribers who purchased such plans just mere days before this offer came about.
