They have answered this several times. The answer is yes.

Q: "Will old unactive accounts be automatically playable when Freedom comes out?"
A: Yes!
I thought I had a chance with that...then read on...
Q. As a free account holder when you buy something from the Paragon Market and become a premium account holder do you remain as the premium or after a time period resort back to the free
A. Let’s clarify something really quickly Free = Completely new, never played before. Premium is most likely going to be folks that are not paying subscription (Playing for FREE) but who are returning, or players who chose ala carte services. VIP is what you would consider a traditional subscriber.
If you had those slots as part of GR, or purchased some previously, or earned them through vet rewards, you’ll still have them.
That pretty much kill all hope there. From what I read on another freedom Friday, "No Accounts would be erased", but, I've only been able to infer that only accounts that were paid on in some way, (Basically fully active at some point) will be made playable when Freedom Launches.
So no solid "Yes!". So Instead of wasting anymore time I'm gonna either Buy the Game (& Aim for Premium Status) , or just wait for Freedom to come out and play through the new area. Thanks for the help though

As a trial player, you'll end up as a Free player.
Works like this:
Free Player: Has never spent money on the game.
Premium Player: Has spent money in the past, but is not currently spending money.
VIP Player: Is currently paying a monthly subscription fee.
Basically what will happen with trial accounts is you will lose access to all but 2 characters, but the level 14 cap will be removed, and so will the 2 week time restriction. Oh, and don't play a Mastermind or Controller, because you'll lose them too.

That's a logical inference. I do think I'll aim for Premium in the end anyways. I mean, I might as well since I'll end up paying for something in the future anyways. If I just buy the game I'll have 30 days instead of 7 and I can get a better head start and just flow right into Freedom and avoid the servers being too bogged down by new toons at release.

You'll also get 400 Paragon Points for being subscribed in the month of July.
The best part of that? Since you're going to be using your free month, it shouldn't actually cost you any more than the cost of the game itself.

My thoughts exactly.


This one is for the staff at Paragon Studios
. Lets say I make a Trial Account to get a head start before "Freedom" comes out, and I make it lvl 14, and my trial ends. When Freedom is released will I be able to play on that account / toon? I've read through most of the info thats out there, couldnt find anything solid, but I did infer a small "Maybe". Any Info would be nice
