setting up a US account

how does one go about setting up a US account, I still wish to play in the EU as well, would I need to copy and alter the updater or download the game again + buy the extra packs (ouch that's going to be expensive).

Is now a bad time to be getting a US account?

Another question, can I use my current PlayNC account but buy the American GvE edition and simply apply it to my account?

You would need to purchase a U.S. game code and you would then be able to create a new game account within your current PlayNC Account. You should/would not be able to apply the U.S. game code to your current E.U. game account.

You could then simply create a desktop shortcut to the non E.U. updater and you should then be able to play both sides. The only problem with that could be if the E.U. and U.S. game versions were different for some reason (e.g. patch applied to U.S. and not applied to E.U. due to a major bug in the new patch) then you would only be able to play either U.S. or E.U. until the game versions were back in line.

You could play them, you would just need to patch back and forth when changing between the two.

Why not just make a copy of the CoX folder and using the original copy for EU and the new copy for the US servers? :S

It'd make switching a lot easier, I reckon.

It's what I do. I currently have 3 copies of CoX installed: EU, EUTest and USTeast.


I really should do something about this signature.

Ok just copied the files and used the US version of CoX updater, logged in with the account, all seems well.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like I can purchase any of the serial codes for the booster packs.
