Is there any way to choose NA when we create a second free account now? I don't want the Europe account, even though I live in Europe.

Uhm they merged the EU and NA servers a while back. There's no difference between EU and NA accounts that I'm aware of.

Apart from the fact that EU accounts cannot purchase year long subscriptions for some bizarre and unanswered reason. *shakes fist*

As for the OP, I managed to get an NA account on my NCSoft Master Account many moons ago but that may have been before they did the whole 'IP recognition' thing. You may need to hide your IP using a proxy maybe but I'm no expert on that.

Good luck.

Go to the PlayNC store, set the language to English (US), then shop for the City of Heroes VIP starter kit. Or just go here.

For reference, the European version of the game can be bought
here.

There are almost no differences between the two games. (Add-on codes like the costume codes the developers hand out work with only one version each, for example.)

Note, however, that you will have to pay for your subscription and paragon points in dollars if you create an North American account. This may cause additional costs to your credit card for international use and/or currency conversion. Also, some European payment options (like Paysafecard) are not available for NA accounts. You have been warned.
