Game Code Arrived Finally!
-
Yes, I got one just now. I am not going to use it as I don't need it. I resurrected an old account from 2016 that I have been playing on since the blow out. I will patiently wait for my main NA live account to be restored. I know not everyone has a secondary account and if they really want to try out the PTS then the code would come in handy.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Did they send you a code for 180 mount upgrades as well?RIP Bosmer Nation. 4/4/14 - 2/25/19.0 -
HippieTheGreat✭✭✭ya got the code too.
I'm getting the sinking feeling we won't get our account back this week at all.0 -

✭I received my code and created my first and only second account.
I'm very thankful that I won't have to spend the rest of the week watching others exploring PTS.
I'll spend the time having a look at scribing and toying with new builds up until my own characters are handed back to me safely. Thanks Zos!0 -

They said by the end of the week, it’s Wednesday. I don’t know why you jump to that conclusion already.PS5EUAldmeri Dominion- Khajiit Arcanist -1 -

It's the default setting around here.5 -

You receive the access code in a separate mail.
Once you login on the official website (this one right here, just click on account in the upper left corner of this webpage) with the credentials of your new account, you can then redeem the code.
Once that's done, simply select "No subscription" and you're done.
Then you can login to your new account with the code being activated.0 -

I have no idea what you're talking about.
I made new account. I got confirmation about it in my email. I can access the account on the website.
When I try to login ingame, it says they sent a code to my email so I can access the account. That email never arrives.0 -

About the redeeming process. I couldn't make out from your first message that you were waiting for the verification mail.
That can take a bit longer sometimes. Mine arrived after a couple seconds but sometimes it takes hours.
Nothing I can help you with, I'm afraid.

Same situation for me. Made the account and activated it, but when I log in I need to input an access code that never arrived in my inbox. The email came after about 90mins.Edited by Deimus on April 18, 2024 12:41AM0 -
verminjerky✭✭✭I got my code, too, although a friend had already given me a code so I was already in on an alt account. (I can't speak to those not getting their login codes - I got mine.)
I may be the dissenting voice, but I actually have positive feedback for this move, I think it's a great idea and it improved my mood a lot.
First, it says that they're taking this seriously and are willing to shell out to do the right thing, which is a good sign.
Second, those of us who were affected were the ones most likely to be extremely eager to get on PTS for various reasons. Streamers, guide makers, addon makers, folks like that really need to be able to be on there. They're doing free work to help promote ESO, it makes sense to get them back in on PTS if they want to be.
Like me, SkinnyCheeks had already done this using an alt account and he was very happy to be back in and playing. For me, it helped because I no longer feel horrendously left out of my daily hobby with my online friends. I can do the stuff I wanted to do on PTS and join my friends there until I get my main account back.
I think it's a good start.7 -

✭✭Just a quick question, along time ago I created a second account to try something out, but I can’t remember the username now. How would one go about recovering that?0 -

Try to go to the elderscrollonline website and click on 'Forgot Username' under the UserID entry box.
That of course depends on still knowing what email address you had tied to the account, so hopefully that helps out?

Masteroshi430✭✭✭So I want to know exactly how it works before using:
We get a new temporary account with the code so we can play while waiting for our good old account to come back then our good old unbanned account will sort of overwrite the temporary one?

You got a code for Necrom Collection Deluxe (base game, plus all chapters, plus all collector's edition items for all chapters), and it's no different than if you had bought the code from some online game store.
You have to pick one of three things to do with this code:- Create a new account. Apply this code to that account. Congrats, you have a new permanent alt account that will exist alongside your main account forever, that you can keep using even after your main account is unlocked.
- Apply this code to an existing alt account. Let's say you already have an alt account that you've leveled, but it didn't have access to all the chapters. This can be used to upgrade that alt account instead of creating a new one.
- Wait for your main account to be unlocked, and apply this code to your main account. So if your main account was missing old chapters or missing collector's edition items, and you don't care about having an alt account, you could use this code to upgrade your main account (after it gets unlocked).

Thanks for the infos code65536,
creating a new account means entering a new email address which I am not interested in, I think I will stick to my main account and enjoy a videogame playing/Addon authoring break while waiting for it's re-activation.

CyberDiva✭✭✭You should be able to tell the game to resend the code for you. Make sure that you check your spam and trash folders as well just in case.0

Naftal✭✭✭✭✭You should be able to tell the game to resend the code for you. Make sure that you check your spam and trash folders as well just in case.
I've resend it many times. Trying to wait for 2h+ between them now.
It's a new email so I can easily see there's no new messages.
Also I tried changing account information and all those messages are instant. It's just the access code that doesn't get sent to me at all.0 -
Punches_Below_Belt✭✭✭✭While I appreciate you sharing your understanding, I would feel much better if someone from ZOS answered our questions. Unlikely as that may be.0

noblecron✭✭✭✭I got my code yesterday. Will we still be able to use these alt accounts once our live accounts are free?0
