Ok here the situation. I have the game loaded on two machines and now I wish to buy a second account for my son (with credit card info), how can I do this?

Login to your NCSoft account, go to the NCSoft store and buy one of the CoH titles (GvE or Architect or Mac would be better than the plain vanilla CoH or CoV ones) and then choose to add the code to a new City account under your NCSoft one.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

The number of machines you have the client loaded on has no effect on how many accounts you have/ can get. Just purchase an activation code either from the online store or through physical purchase, then either add it to your existing NCSoft Master account (if you are paying for it with the same card) or start a new Master account for your son's copy.

Good luck Anti. My son and I also play the game together. It's a lot of fun to see his face light up when he experiences something new.

This is the link to the NCsoft store. The easiest way to do it would be just to set up a separate account from your own. That way your son would have his own. The game itself isn't tied to a specific account. That's what the log in is for. So I could log in on any computer that has City of Heroes on it using my username and password. I have two accounts. One for me and one for my wife. It doesn't matter which computer we use the serial codes are tied to the username and password.

Ok I screwed the pooch and bought a code and applied it to my account. How will he be able to log in at the same time as me?

Call them like ^^^ said. I did the same thing and bought my son the AE edition twice. I called them and they got me all squared away.

Also the Customer service guys are really cool. They seem like guys you'd be playing the game with.

Need the number?

Yeah in this case it's time to ADD, not "upgrade"
