*'refused' - Is the store/pack down again?

Just tried with PayPal, 'An error occurred during PayPal payment.' I have enough funds for the purchase, but two attempts later and no dice.

Happened when I brought the cyborog pack. There is a good chance the attempts went through.
I'm waiting a few hours, learnt my lesson from the last booster pack.

Forgot this pack has new hair.

It's not running away. It's advancing in reverse!

Evils · 07-15-2009 04:52 PM

That's... less than comforting, _Rave_. I just made a third attempt, same error message. If £18 vanishes, then a very unhappy and slightly irate customer I shall likely be.

_Rave_ · 07-15-2009 05:03 PM

Well they gave us refunds so if it does go through you can get your money back.

I get the feeling once the packs are obtained (got mine) that the tailoring part of the game may lag a bit...

Don't worry you are covered by all manner of consumer laws as well as NCsoft wanting to retain you as subscriber.
I highly doubt it would 'go missing'. That said I'll be keeping an eye on my bank transactions for this period.

The credit card route doesn't work for me... most odd, I get card 'refused' logged in on plaync.com and attempting to buy the EU.pack. I used Paypal on the 4th attempt and it said it was accepted, just off now to check it has applied ok.

I don't think they expected it to be as popular as it is...

Thanks for the reassurance everyone. Money's rather tight for me/most presently, so it's good to know.

Ok, The emotes 'drink formula' and 'super serum' are added as optional costume change emotes... however they are only useable through the costume change menu, So if you wanted to bind the emote to anything else you're going to be disappointed.

The two emotes I liked the best; #getting the formula wrong and it exploding / getting it right and laughing evily - and #pondering equations and calculations with them materialising in the air around you, are however useable and are /em,experiment and /em,calculate

I has a question. :3

I never did buy the Architect Edition, and paid full whack for the previous boosters. I want to get the Architect Edition and redeem the free booster that comes with it on the Super Science pack. It seems logical to me, anyway.

Is this possible, or does the architect edition only let you choose between boosters I and II?

well managed to purchase it eventually but only after ending up with a mac edition that i don't want and have no idea how i got it (have emailed support)

and i also foolishly purchased the architect edition for my account that doesn't have it thinking i could then get the booster with it which you cant (and yes it dose tell you if you read it so that ones my own fault) but it also turns out you cant apply a architect edition to your account without claiming a booster but as i have both boosters i cant apply it grrrr.

but i did get SB3 for one of my accounts and have sent support a ticket on the other stuff so all is almost good.

As I've discovered it only works on 1 and 2 making the purchase of the architect pointless as you cant even apply it to the account to get a months play

Bum.

Ah well. All applied and done with.

I don't know why so many people have problems, really. This is my third super booster and it's applied without fail.

Wrong. I've already bound them. the emotes are

/cce x (where x is the costume slot number minus one) followed by ccdrinkformula or ccsuperserum

so "/cce 0 ccsuperserum" will use the super serum emote to change you to your first costume slot.

Easy.

Edit: Sorry ML, I misread that. Yes, you're right, you can't use them as standard emotes, which would have been cool, but that's not different from some of the other emotes we've gotten previously (the burn with evillaugh or the lightning strike or Hey Presto, for example).

Set up two identical costumes, use the /cce # ccdrinkformula or
/cce # ccsuperserum commands to switch between the identical costumes and you're set.

Not a great workaround, admittedly, since it eats a costume slot, but it's a workaround.

:edit: I can't spell.
