Using Ultimate subscription over Standard one-time license

**qbix** · February 22nd, 2018, 19:59

I have one-time Standard licence, which was enough for single PC sessions with shared TV screen.

We want to experiment with Ultimate version, so everyone can connect to the single server. But we do not want to spend too much money if it won't suite our needs.
Will it be straight forward? Can I just subscribe, check for updates, and I am ready to go?
If so, can I then cancel subscription, and I'll have my Standard edition back?

Thanks for help

Yes and Yes.

All you'll have to do is put the correct license code (Standard or Ultimate) in the settings screen and run an update. All of your purchases are linked to your FG login (or synced via your FG login from Steam) and local campaign data etc. won't be overwritten.

Just be aware, that when you cancel your subscription, the way PayPal does things means that your Ultimate subscription will end immediately, not at the end of the 30 day period. So just make sure you cancel it when you are ready and not before
