Lock in a discounted 3-month rate for the duration of your subscription to DC Universe Online!

DC Universe Online is offering a discounted subscription rate for players willing to pay in three-month increments, allowing players to save over 25% for life! Here's the terms from the DCU Online Website:

The Legend Promotion Begins Today! - 02/08/2011

We hope everyone has had an exciting time becoming the next legend and thank all of you for playing DCUO. You are true heroes in our book! As a thank you we are extending a special offer to you, our loyal players, for a limited time only! This legendary new promotion will give you extraordinary savings on a 3 month DCUO subscription and ensure you are able to participate in our monthly content updates. We look forward to seeing you in game!

LEGEND PRICING FOR LEGEND PLAYERS

Legend Plan Special Offer - Get More Game for Even Less!

In appreciation of the first players who are on the path to becoming legends, we're offering the chance to lock in an extraordinary promotional rate of only $29.99 for the 3-month DC Universe Online Legend Plan. That's over 25% OFF the regular 3-month subscription plan price of $41.99! Keep that rate for as long as you are actively subscribed and watch the savings pile up.

Don't delay! Lock in your savings now!

As a Legend Player, you must lock in this rate prior to the end of the 30-day subscription included with your software purchase. If your current subscription plan kicks in before you choose the Legend Plan, you may still participate, but the Legend Plan rate will apply only after your currently selected plan ends.

This offer ends March 1, 2011, so don't miss out!

Already Subscribed?

PC Players - If you have already subscribed to a 3-month plan, you will automatically be charged Legend Plan pricing of $29.99 when your fee becomes due. If you subscribed to a 1-, 6-, or 12-month plan and choose to switch to the 3-month Legend Plan, you must do so prior to the date when your credit card is charged for your existing selection, or your promotional rate will not apply until the end of your existing plan.

PS3 Players - If you have already subscribed to a 90-day plan, you will automatically be charged Legend Plan pricing of $29.99 when your fee becomes due. If you are on any other plan and choose to switch to the 90-day Legend Plan, you will be charged the new pricing upon completion of your existing plan.

Legend Pricing Plan Terms & Conditions:

3-month promotional subscription pricing of $29.99 (plus applicable taxes) compared to the standard 3-month subscription rate of $41.99 (plus applicable taxes).

Offer ends 3/1/11 at 11:59pm (PST). Individuals with DC Universe Online accounts in good standing and validly subscribing to the Legend Plan prior to this deadline will be eligible to receive this offer and will benefit from the recurring Legend Plan rate of $29.99.

Your credit card will be charged every 3 months at the rate of $29.99 (plus applicable taxes) for the life of the game as long as your DCUO account is in good standing and your DCUO 3-month subscription remains active, paid and valid. In the event SOE or Sony Computer Entertainment terminates your DCUO account, your 3-month promotional subscription expires, or you choose to cancel and then re-subscribe at a later date, you will not be eligible to receive this 3-month promotional rate and you will be subject to the then-current subscription rate.

If you have already selected a 1-, 6-, or 12-month DCUO subscription plan and do not choose to switch to the Legend Plan before your 30-days of game-play included with your qualified purchase of DCUO expires, but decide to switch prior to March 1, 2011 (11:59pm PST), your credit card will be charged for the subscription plan you have already selected and the Legend Plan price of $29.99 for a recurring 3-month subscription will commence when your current subscription period ends.

Why don't they just do a lifetime subscription option like they did with PC :smt102

There's a trap with that promotion.

You can't get it without buying another copy of the game. It doesn't seem set up for people who already bought it and are playing it.

You can't get more straight forward than the opening lines of the press release...

Looks to me like they directly targeting the existing players.

Did you even read the press release? Beyond what Amoebas pointed out, it even tells you, explicitly, how to change your subscription plan.

How much is that?

by **oogy** » Wed Feb 09, 2011 12:22 pm

Still too much IMO. Monthly fees are the reason I never play any of the MMOs.

by **Kerny** » Wed Feb 09, 2011 12:51 pm

I'm cancelling today as well, if I can find how to do that

I went to the site and went through the steps. You HAD to purchase the game first before the different plans came up (including the Legend one) and I couldn't find any way to get the game off the order.

I'm not going to call it a trap if I didn't try to get the plan myself.
