CCP announced that it is instituting email verification, which requires players to enter a valid email address that will be attached to their accounts. When the game is accessed from a new computer or location, an email verification check will be required to make sure that the account has not been compromised. All current players are being urged to verify their accounts before the 15th to ease the transition into the new system.
“With the introduction of email verification, we will be removing character name challenges from the SSO both on our website and in the launcher in order to improve security, expedite the account reactivation process, and reduce the amount of waiting time on account recovery,” the studio said.
