I think I still have an Arc account when I tried the game in 2012 (I didn't know english back then)

Old account or new account? It is the same?

The old one should work fine, though I seem to remember some people having to contact support to access characters that have been dormant for a long time...

And there is "welcome back" or "only for new players" rewards?

There is a current "Return to Duty" promotion that's available to all players - a free "Jem'hadar Vanguard" character, which is normally a premium, upgraded version of a basic Jem'Hadar character. I keep forgetting to claim it for myself.

There's also a starter pack on sale in the in-game store. It's got some nice stuff in it, but I think you'd be fine without it if you don't want to spend the money.

I'd say - "it depends"

Did you play a lot on the old account? If so I'd say try and reuse it. You might have a bunch of lock boxes or even a ship that isn't available anymore (at least for free).
