secondary license just let you use another pc though right? If that is the case, you have an unlimited seat license, its just 1 at a time since you can switch devices as necessary.

It was mentioned for those that have multiple HLC licenses that in the future HLO will allow for multiple signons at the same time. This would allow a person to let "family" members in the same house use HLO at the same time.

I don't think we will see that feature until Pathfinder gets moved over to HLO though.

This, and I agree. I forgot to mention that.

I honestly hope they don't offer extra licenses. With an online model it is really not needed, unless you are trying to steal from LWD by buying 1 copy and distribute licenses to the rest of your gaming group.

I am repeating info from the Official HLO FAQ. Of course some people will steal or find a way to exploit it. But many others want it for using in the correct way which is to not be required to have multiple accounts for people living in the same house.

A: In Hero Lab Classic, secondary licenses allow users to access their content on multiple devices. Hero Lab Online will employ a similar concept, allowing simultaneous access to your account from multiple devices (e.g. multiple family members). Migration from Classic to Online will convert your secondary licenses to simultaneous devices in the new environment.

no we are asking for concurrent licensing I know i covered this in another post but they could make a group product make it cost 60 dollars to purchase and 9 dollars a month for continues access for a group of six (25 percent discount on access.) the system logs the email addresses you want to assign and only those email addresses can access. which is a legitimate way to deal with sort of thing ... you don't believe me look at adobe, google,dropbox,and microsoft they all offer similar options.

I have no problems with an online subscription model ... if online works. I play Starfinder once every two weeks on Tuesday night, and last night I couldn't use my character. We had a late outage notification, and zero explanation of why. If we're paying for an online model, I'd like to see a certain level of online service.

I agree with this statement. Paying for online means that certain usage levels should be expected. Outages and planned maintenance should be well communicated as well.
