For subscription based games, that would suck indeed. But Planetside is F2P, means its not as important. You would only have to buy Station Cash for both accounts seperatly, but thats just a little extra hassle really. Its very likley that there wont be much account wide stuff to buy with station cash that you really want that damn much...


But im not happy about this at all. Dont want to get seperated and have to install the game twice...
basti...

I'm a European player; after I create my ProSieben account, will my SOE account be shut down?

Your SOE account will not be shut down, but you will only be able to play the above mentioned games through a ProSiebenSat.1 Games account. As discussed above, we will provide a simple way to have your characters and game progress transferred and the value of your Station Cash granted to your new ProSiebenSat.1 Games account. Also, existing EverQuest II players in Europe that have played on U.S. servers before the transition will be allowed to continue playing on those servers through their SOE accounts.
AKA, as a european player, my station account will not be able to access PS2.
