Want to rejoin EQ, problems,...Follow

Hi there!

I wanted to reactivate my old EQ Account. Been playing from shortly after beta to midway PoP. Meanwhile i tried to find another game that addicts as much, but no luck hehe.

Well now i want to come back and running into a wall here. For some reasons i cannot log into the EQ Mainforums, it tells me i am logged in,.. but as soon as i hit the forums, i am logged out again. Just can't get it to work.

Second Problem (more of a problem kinda). My old EQ CDs don't seem to work to well. I can install everything, but if i try to patch it tells me "missing files on update server".
I know EQ got a new patcher, i used that one as well when i left. But from my instalation i only get the old, wich doesnt seem to work anymore.

Now i tried to download the game, but had no luck. I may only download it if i create a new account it seems. Not to reactivate an existing. But i dont want to make a new account at all *cough* got two... no need for a third.

So basicly,.. can anyone point me to a downloadlink or a way to reactivate my account, without having the game installed already?

Really want to get back :-)

Thanks in advance!

You should beable to reactivate you old account through the station at everquest.com that is where your actual info is stored like your credit card info and what expansions you are signed up for and all that jazz

Thanks for the link... patching now :-)

As for the station name. I never had one for EQ. Thats why my subscription doesnt show up. I dont know since when you actually need one for playing EQ. But you did NOT have to have one when the game released. I first made a station account when i started the EQ2 beta.

At least i guess thats why it doesnt show up...

make sure you go into the advanced options and check all expansions that you have on your account. Do another complete file check and make sure you have everything you need :)

You have always needed a station name to play eq (at least the last few years)..you might be confusing the station name, with a Station Pass which give you access to play most of SoE online games for $20+ per month.

If your account for EQ2 is ONLY an EQ2 account, you'll have to either 1.) create a new account, or 2.) upgrade it to a Station Pass. That is, if you can't get your orignial station information for your EQ account.

talk to customer support. if you can give them the original CC info, they'll help you get yoru account, otherwise you'll have to get a new account. You can now get a digital download of EQ platinum that contains the first 7 expanions for $19.99...the boxed version game with 30 days free...not sure on the DD version.

good luck!

Just start eq, get past the patcher and the disclamer (or whatever it is). Then at the first menu, click on account. A web page will load. Log in with your eq account and you can access everything you need.

Your Station name is the same as your login name for the game. Alwyas has been since 1999.
