Feldon As we found out recently, SOE is making all of their customers who currently have a Gold membership, through credit card, Krono, or game cards, into All Access customers. Players will be able to login to their favorite game once per month and claim 500SC for being loyal subscribers, as well as enjoying a 10% flat discount in all Marketplace prices. Finally, All Access customers will be able to access all of SOE’s games including DC Universe Online (PC), PlanetSide 2 (PC), EverQuest, EverQuest II, Dragon’s Prophet, EQN Landmark, and EQNext when it launches in 2015.
NOTE: The upcoming changes do not affect any of the existing perks for EQ2 Gold subscribers such as Bonus XP and Double Currency, nor does it impact any of the awesome upcoming perks for EQ2 which I’m not yet allowed to talk about. 😉
From the EQ2 Forums:
Thank you for your feedback regarding our membership benefits. The result has led to a brand-new offering that we’re excited to bring to our valued players.
On or about April 2nd, we will be rolling out a simple, new All Access membership plan full of value. In the new All Access plan, members will be able to:
- Claim 500 Station Cash monthly from within the game marketplaces.
- Receive a 10% discount on marketplace purchases.
- Gain access to exclusive promotions and offers throughout the year.
And we’ve gone a step further…
We will be upgrading all existing individual game memberships to the new All Access plan, which will include the top-tier membership level in all eligible SOE games (EverQuest, EverQuest II, DC Universe Online PC, PlanetSide 2 PC, Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, and the upcoming EverQuest Next and EQN Landmark) for one, low monthly rate of $14.99 (with extra savings for 3, 6 and 12 month plans). We’re also finalizing membership benefits to other games such as Dragon’s Prophet and will share these new updates as available.
We value you as a player and want you to know we are listening so please continue to share feedback. We hope the new All Access membership plan will allow you to further your enjoyment of your favorite SOE game, and discover exciting, new experiences across our current and upcoming portfolio of online games.
On or about April 2nd, all players with existing memberships will be automatically upgraded into the new plan. So sit back, relax and enjoy the new savings and benefits!

I strongly recommend reading the extensive Revised All Access Program FAQ as it answers a wagonload of questions, ESPECIALLY about ProSieben and Europe in general.
I can’t believe you pulled a Smokeblower on us! 👿
After reading the FAQ I was very happy as it states that even as a UK player I will be ungraded to “SOE All-Access” (which as explained in the FAQ itself includes EQN and Landmark) via my grandfathered SOE account. I even got an email confirming my account would become “SOE All-Access”.
Then Seffrid asked the big question:
“So does that mean that as a UK player still currently playing EQ, EQ2 and VG through SOE … I will be able to play both Everquest Next Landmark and Everquest Next itself through SOE?”
To which RadarX replied:
” I can’t provide you an answer to EverQuest Next. I can tell you that EverQuest Next Landmark will be through SOE. “
So now it sees like there is some doubt over EQN for us after all…. /sigh
I do find it funny they added vanguard to the all access and then closed the game down
