Posted on: 2011-08-17 10:13 in News, Events and Announcement Discussion
Curious question: How many codes were actually applied from the last giveaway?
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
This does not allow those of us with multi accounts to face palm them. oh well 
LvL 50's Inv/Em Tank, Katana/Regen Scrapper, Merc/Traps MM, Ninja/Dark MM, Crab
@Torell Guardian, Liberty & Freedom
Wow, I usually make it a point to check Announcements on a daily basis and I completely missed this post from a week ago...
"You don't lose levels. You don't have equipment to wear out, repair, or lose, or that anyone can steal from you. About the only thing lighter than debt they could do is have an NPC walk by, point and laugh before you can go to the hospital or base." -Memphis_Bill
We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...
Is this just for the same facepalm emote? Or is the doubefacepalm included? Or might the doublefacepalm emote have finally been activated for those of us who already got the emote from the previous giveaway?
I don't want to grab a code if it's what I already have!
EDIT: PLUS... I wantses the doublefacepalm emote goodness!

It's the same code for sure, EK. I checked.
I don't know anything about "doublefacepalm" though.

Thanks!
Yeah, forumites who are in-the-know about such things have pointed out that doublefacepalm is in the game's quickchat list of emotes and has the same verification check as the regular facepalm... but it isn't active.
I'm imagining that they're going to add it in separately... but who knows... They may just add it in or it may never exist!
It is most likely a Nemesis plot...
*doublefacepalms*

Nope, it will only be available through this promotion. But they'll continue running it regularly, so eventually everyone who cares will be able to have one. At least, that's what Black Pebble (I think?) told me at Comic Con.|

I actually asked them if it'd be in the store, as I didn't think I'd get back from San Diego in time to grab a code myself last month.

1) Click "Account" in the top right corner of your Facebook page and select "Account Settings."
2) Click the "Security" tab over on the left side of the settings window.
3) For this to work, "Secure Browsing" needs to say disabled.
If it is enabled, you can click on it, uncheck the box, and hit the "Save Changes" button.
4) Close your browser.
5) Open a new browser window, navigate to CoH's Facebook page and click on the promotion logo. You should now have your code.
(Once you get the code, feel free to re-enable secure browsing on Facebook.)

Just got my code, not bad

Odd, if it was the same code, why did it work for my second account this time? I used it on my first with the last code giveaway. Possibly they 'renewed' the codes so-to-say?

I don't recall it being specifically stated anywhere, but are we too assume that this emote is only available to Facebook customers, and not available via any other avenue for the non-facebook folks?
excluding European Union.
Since when is Facebook region based and suddenly the 'big merge' remains a US/EU devided game? The new gamecases can Antec, US only, this goody and comic com.. US only. Irony kicks in already.

You can only grab it (atm) on facebook. That's not saying it won't be in the Store eventually but...
I got mine on the 1st go around!
As an aside, with official announcements having thread titles like this, is it any wonder why we say our Dev's are the best in the industry?!

Contests like this are usually not applicable in U.S. States like Rhode Island, the very state our imaginary Paragon resides, yet American's aren't crying that not every state can participate... As far as the Con's go. I live in the U.S. but I'll never be able to attend one since they are on the far coast from me, should I be crying over that?

I'm either reading something wrong in the original announcement, or in your comment.. Because I completely don't follow your complaint/comment/point...
Me neither... as I got my code without any problems.

Little contests i care less about, the fact they couldnt even show up at 1 of the largest European games convention i really dont like. NCsoft was there with big numbers, their new MMO and GW2 were there bigtime.|

Since closure of the UK devision of NCsoft, all we had was a few player-organised events, they didnt even show up at Gamescom for 2 years in a row (yes, NCsoft was there with GW2 and Wildstar, last year even with Aion).
Anyway, same *bleep* again, code aint working on 2 of my accounts. Only get 2 accounts to apply the code to, but i have 4..

Frankly, I'd rather spend money/Paragon Points on an emote than give away personal information to Facebook and its advertisers. NCSoft has a much better in-house privacy policy.

I sent you a PM. Answer me back and we'll see if we can't get you a code.

Will not sign up to facebook just to get this emote. Is there anyway round this or do those of us who do not want to sign up to facebook have to wait until the facepalm becomes available in-game?
It's round 2 of the Facebook Facepalm Promotion, and we're ramping up the face-slapping by giving out 10,000 facepalm emote codes! Visit the "Free Giveaways" tab on our Facebook page, and follow the directions for a chance to receive a region-specific code that can be redeemed for an in-game facepalm emote!
