can I play from different devices, using the same account?

as a person that has never had a payed MMORPG account, I have a silly newbie question.

at the moment there's that 25% discount on everything in the store, so I want to buy the game. But I'm planning to change my computer soon. Will I have any problems logging in form a new machine? Or, as long as I use my user ID, I can play from any device that has the client installed? I mean not simultaneously, of course.

    For every device logging in, you will receive an email to activate this device.

    Once you've done that, you can run the game on any device. Not simultaniously, but you can change your location.

    As said above, you can play from any machine running windows or apple that has the minimum specs or better and got the game installed.

    You can NOT play from e.g. xbox and playstation when those versions of the game are released.

    And only 1 at a time. You can't login from 2 machines at the same time.

    Just to warn you what will happen when you fire up the game for the first time on your new machine, if you're not already aware.

    The first time you log into the game on your new PC you'll almost certainly get a message telling you you're logging in from an 'unauthorised' system and you'll need to enter an unlock code which will have been e-mailed to your registered address. So make sure you have ready access to your e-mail account when you're doing this, the code is only valid for a short time (10-15 mins IIRC) after which you'll have to request another one.
