Quote:If you have a DVD burner or flash drive, burning a copy is a lot faster than downloading it all over again.I recently picked up a new computer, but I can't find my CoH install CD. (Hey, it's been five years.) I seem to recall reading posts about either downloading the client, or copying it from the old computer to the new. Unfortunately, even on the new boards, I can't find anything with the search function.
So, which method would you recommend? If download, where do I get it? If copy, what do I need to copy from my old computer? -
I hadn't gone to fiddly with my notoriety until today, and I happened to be on a villain.
My stomach hurt after laughing so hard when I realized that you guys are SRSLY telling the truth about the notoriety names! -
I could be wrong, but I'm going to guess that the settings run based off the mission holder, just like they did before.

And people gave me negative rep for requesting that people make SURE that negative rep is deserved before giving it, for exacly that reason.

If you couldn't get it from that, MY post should have definitely given it away...

Quote:You CAN have your 30 months free IF you enter a payment source. As has been stated several times, you can enter a CC number and immediately cancel the subscription, your CC will not be charged.Yes I just scratched it off. the only reason I tried to use it is because they sent me to the give me money page. They give you no option to do anything but go back a page or give them more money. To me this is just a racket to steal money.
Question: What does trying to use a time card have to do with NCsoft NOT honoring the boxed version and letting me have the time I paid for when I bought the game?
It has ALWAYS been this way. Prove you can pay, then you can play.
You're the one saying it says "invalid code", which is something only Customer Support can fix (see my previous post about customer support). -
If you're positive the time card hasn't been used and you're entering it correctly and still getting "invalid code" (you are entering it in the right spot, yes?) then your ONLY option is to contact customer support, by phone if it's within your capability to do so.

Yes, if you send them an email you will get an automated response. Make sure you're clear about what you're trying to do... look how long it took us to figure out what the problem was.
"I have a time card, but when I enter it, it says invalid code". Wait for a real person to get back to you rather than the automated response. CS does have the capability of "fixing" code errors. I ran into something similar with a code that had Bs and 8s reversed.
You have to give them time to respond though, and since we're going into a weekend, it likely won't be instantaneously. -
Quote:It would have been helpful if you'd said this at the beginning. You never mentioned a game time card that someone else gave you until just now. Are you -certain- that game card hadn't been used? And it is an NCSoft time card?That is what I am trying to do. I just brought up my bro's account in relation to the install. And the fact that he has Coh as a game in his account info. I have set up 2 different "new accounts so far and it's NCsoft saying give us money but you will never play the game response".
Bottom line:
I put in game code.
It takes me to a page wanting money.
I put in game time code from a card my uncle gave me. "Invalid"
Bare minimum I should be able to play without any more money for a few days. Also I have no game in my "account" therefore NCsoft is plain and simple ripping me off. -
Quote:He does get a free month but he still has to give a payment method first. As Kitsune said, he can put a card number in and immediately cancel after the game is registered, and the card will never be charged, and he'll get his free month.Shouldn't he still get a free month from the GvE code? Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he can use the free month before it requires a time card or CC.
The other way is to start a trial acct. Then upgrade that using the code but you may still need a CC or time card to continue. -
Quote:Ahhh, now we get to the root of the problem.Yes to all. My account shows no games. My bro's has CoH I have none. When I use the corrected code it takes to a page that want a CC number or time card. when i try to add the time card number I get invalid for it. I should have time on the game just for buying it. I should not have to add a time card or pay from a CC anyway. There is no continue button just a give me money or back option.
You MUST add a credit card or a time card to play (or paypal). Your credit card will not be charged until your free month is up, but you still need to have a payment plan chosen to start.
That little scratch off card isn't a time card, it's the VIP card that registers the game. -
Quote:Oh, so it's not working after all, then? You said it seemed to be working a minute ago.Too bad it's not working NCsoft will not let me have a game for this account.
Let me go back over this.
You have an account already. You want to make a second account.
You bought a new, shrink-wrapped GvE physical box to make a second account.
You logged into your master account and chose "use a serial code"
You scratched off the gunk from the VIP card and entered it in, making sure you've got your ducks in a row (S, 5, B, 8, etc), and got back "invalid code".
Do I have this straight so far? -
The game is the same no matter what box you buy or what computer it's on.
Are you talking about the VIP pass with the scratch-off gunk?
Make sure you are getting you O and 0, B and 8, 5 and S straight. -
Quote:A key point to mention again...
The pic has to be cropped to a maximum of 100 x 100 pixels.
Typically, a game screenshot will be much bigger than that, hence
Bill's point about taking it into paint or photoshop.
Having just made my first avatar a couple days ago, I can tell
you that the forum won't display it if it's bigger (my first crack
at it was 115 x 115 and it didn't work until I reduced it).
If you use photobucket, you can also resize photos there too.

While it's preferable to have a 100 x 100 avatar, it's not necessary. The forum will automatically smash larger avatars. -
Quote:Have you ever tried teaming with other people who are fighting the ravers? Makes the badges go a lot faster and it's just as easy to put together as a Rikti or Zombie PUG.I have trouble finding the balance between "don't kill-steal" and "I have a right to work on my badges too" with the Troll Raves in Skyway. If see another high-level toon there, I don't worry about it much, since neither of us are getting xp, drops, or anything but kill-count. But for lower-level toons, especially teams, I feel guilty wiping out large numbers of the trolls with one blow. On the other hand, it's not fair for me to have to give up the opportunity to work on my badge just because someone else is there too. I mostly try to stay on the far side of the action, avoiding spawns that seem like someone else is also targeting.
