seems a bit odd to me too... especially since people are getting duplicates.

Yes to me this seems to be the most stupid aspect of the whole thing. I don't mind things not working as this is beta, but creating a new account for a site you already have an account for is just stupid. If they needed to tranfer the account details or add a new click through licence, why counc't they have just added a button to upgrade your account to 'Open Beta'?

It just seems like pure laziness on their part, which would have alleviated some of the problems everyone is having.

I mean, does your email address end in say @gmail.com, or @hotmail.com?

I don't think it matters anyway, I just think the mailing is all clogged up due to the large amount of people registering.

Thanks

Yeah I used a hotmail account for it.

I think you are right. ;)

FF3 was just giving me a blank page when i tried to register, after an hour trying i fired up IE7 and it worked immediately, just waiting for my activation e-mail, which it seems is going to take over an hour due to the overloaded goa servers that anyone with sufficient intelligence to look at the 800,000+ players who signed up could have predicted.

But hey, i played euro DAoC and goa sucked big time at that, numerous website related problems due to poorly designed and implemented pages. I really wish i didn't have 30 mates all playing that insisted that the Us servers "would have time zone issues", coz i'd take time zone issues over GOA any day of the week...

So, i put in my stuff and even used my old email...then i got a total f**up of the flash site, closed browser, reopenend the GOA page and
After 5 min of refreshing it loaded the "log in/Register" thingy. So i used my newsletter login thingy and
Greetings Faya (you are logged in)
please insert your CD key for validation...
(as much as i hurrayed, i was baffled as my newsletter knowhere had Faya on it..)
So i put in my CD key (wherever that page came from i still wonder)
and since then i get error 300 and 414 in regular changes.
So, its now press that key all over till im lucky?

My guess is the OB accounts are temporary and will be wiped completely before the official launch, whereas CB accounts will continue to exist.

are ppl using the "register" button on the website or are they accessing the registration page via the "create account" button on the game launcher? I used the game launcher to access the registration section of the website and got registered with out too much hassel. well still had hassel but not as much as some ppl are having now.

I was wishfully trying my old account...but I guess that is going to be an epic fail and I will have to join the masses and try to get a new account..which to me just seems daft!! :twak:

Been trying every 20 mins or so since 0900 UK time. Five hours and nothing but 414 errors, with one 300 thrown in just for fun. Do these clowns seriously expect me to trust them with my credit card details when the game goes live?

Yea, just a waiting game from here.

On another note, can I simply copy the client from program files to another computer? Will that work?

Thanks
Should work, but it being mmo, not sure. i'd try copying the install files instead if they are still on your comp.
