i'm on NTL cable and have had no luck whatsoever in trying to register the game.

(i've only just bought it and tbf, i am a little pissed of with the "situation" i've kinda stubled upon!) :(

is it likely that i gotta do some stuff with proxies to get it working, or is that just for broadband only.

i'm begind a Netgear Firewall Router Thingy, could this also be causing problems withe the registration page??

as far as i'm concerned i'm just desperate to actually see wot the game is like..

any help is appreciated..TIA

Update

BT broadband.

Update...

Without changing anything, i can now "sometimes" get to the page to input my sub log, and sub PW.

Upon submitting them. I get the maintenence message... everytime.

<sigh>

OMFG - Thankyou

I'm with BT openworld and even worse I was only ever getting CANNOT FIND SERVER messages. Attempted from work and got the retry page so though it might be my connecton (I HATE BT OPENWORLD).

I saw this thread and buggered about with my proxy setting - picked a random one and hey presto (a bit slow but i still loved it) I got the please retry screen :), after 2nd spam of F5 got straight in. Fantastic, if anyone else is interested and is a BT Openworld user please try this setting - it worked for me.

Proxy = 148.223.74.60 Port 80

Quite slow but functional and I just changed back to auto detect afterwards.

Just shows you that BT is shite, a mamouth shite but still shite.... ... the bastards!!!!

Most of you are still having problems just coz there is a problem at that time. Some basic stuff.

What does a proxy do?
A proxy stores frequently accessed web pages. When the page is accessed subsequently, the proxy serves the page, rather than retreiving the page from the host web server. This reduces Internet traffic and theoretically increases speed of response. It also means that pages can be up to several hours out of date; a problem with frequently updated pages.
Stolen from somewere :)

Clear your stored pages a lot, Reboot to clear temp caches, Remove temp internet files before you try log in, All these above will apear to have the same effect as changing your proxies, but in short they only do what you tell em to do. Getting all your temp internet files removed and even a full reboot for good measure will greatly increase your chances if theres no fault at other end.

For them that wish to play with proxies, try link below :)

Think i may've figured it out.

I've now got 100% success.

Get the appropriate proxy and put it for both HTTP and HTTPS.

i've been try to register the game cos i just got it, and am pretty much there.

one question tho, wen u press the VALIDATE button once all details are entered, is it supposed to go to anuvva page or just sit there being a turd. its pissing me off.

i've entered everything (CD Keys and address etc), but i dunno whether all i can do now is just sit and wait 4 an e-mail cos it dont say anything..is it supposed to??

Remember to tell Internet Exploder to check for a new vesion of the page every time too. I would also say use a decent browser, but the idiots at GOA use non compliant web standards for their web design, so it ONLY works in IE. Which sucks, and they should be shot for such amateur work.

But yeah, check for a new version of the page every time, that may help and it good practice anyway.
