    Hopefully not. Games with trials or F2P options are full of zone chat gold spamming. It gives them a free path into the game. Offering trials would negate much of what was done to stop them before (when they were hacking the game to get free accounts).

    Edit : there is a crown balance. They would not provide crowns for a free trial.

    That would be the new purchase 30-day (500 Crowns) trial.

    I could be wrong, but I strongly suspect that account screenshot was of a beta tester coming back during the welcome back beta testers weekend.

    That's why in some games you are not allowed to use zone chat or whisper as a trial user...

    There is always a solution...

    But then again I don't know of any B2P title offering a free trial.

    The trial could include 500 crowns, so interested players can test the crown store as well?
    As long as either trial accounts can't be upgraded to full accounts or all crown items and their related progress would be removed after an upgrade, I couldn't see a problem with having 500 crowns for testing.
    Or the upgrade would include the costs for 500 crowns.
    Having some crowns with a trial version doesn't seem to be a problem therefor.

    The account screen shot is from the welcome back weekend of a beta tester
    The second page is a test of the russion localisation of the website (the forum specifically)

    I can't.

    Then again, once I prove a concept, the company im working for normally kill my dev enviroment pretty quickly.

    That said, I find it strange that whoever is writing the Russion pages is doing it on a publicly accessable location.

    Bad practise or something more mysterious?

    Russian localization worth it only if there would be a russian sub-forum, like German and French.
    BTW, i personally happy that there is no russian localization, because it helped me to train my english up in last two months.

    If you look closely, it says ESO Beta. There was an "event" not too long ago allowing beta players to come back and play the weekend or so for free.

    That's fake as well.

    Since both of these pictures have been debunked, we're locking this thread.
