CCP/GM The 60 day code you gave out a few weeks ago is realyl not use full if i cant run it along side my active account to see how well 2 accounts run without having to buy 30 more days, im not going to waste the Isk or 15 on an account i might not be able to run at the same time as my main.


a 2 account trial should allow to me run 2 accounts at the same time.

All automated intel should be removed from the game including Instant local/jumps/kills/cynos for all systems/regions.Eve should report nothing like this to the client/3rd party software.Intel should not be force fed to players. Player skill and iniative should be the sources of intel.

Wat? If you just want to test out if your computer can run multiple accounts why do you need 60 days? If this is not what you are talking about then o_O for me.

you cannot run a trial account along-side other eve client instances - he's referring to the 60day trial codes.

solution: put one client into a VM or use some other sandboxing solution (if you are the risk-loving type you could look up RedGuard).

What you can do is run two clients, one logged onto tranquillity server and one logged onto the singularity server. This is the best way available to test if your computer can comfortably run two accounts simultaneously.

I don't know about windows 7 or vista but for me on windows xp and server 2003 I can run a trial account at same time as subbed if I run one of them in compatibility mode.

Say WHAAAAAAT ?????Shocked

Then how on Earth did I start my 3 Alt toons by Trial while my Main was paid, and they all ran fine as trial with the Paid Main concurrently. Never even came up as an issue in any form.

Did something change ??????????

even tho, it should work side by side as a normal account would seeing as they advertised it as a 2nd account to use beside your main


but nope got to sub it or play the ducktape game or rig it to work

what i really want is to use it side my side to see if i really WANT to play with an alt account or not if i don't use it much in 60 days why even pay for it that's just wasted money

It's been this way for years. You cannot log in a trial and any other account at the same time from the same PC (though, potentially if you have different install directories you may not run in to this thing).

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia
