  • I have too with no problems but it still sends me to the dutch paypal site, i would also worry that it would hinder my chances of playing on a european server come release(?)
  • What a lovely friendly attitude you have :o the 20% tax on digital purchases is nothing really new but why is this not made clear on the website BEFORE you press order and are taken to paypal (the wrong language one at that) this does not look good to people and you must understand there disappointment when they get mugged…
  • Even if i put down United states as my region i get taken to the dutch paypal for 56 euros
  • its open to all atm, I'm guesssing someone messed up somewhere
  • Crafting is one of my favourite passtimes in MMO's and I agree Istaria (Horizons when i played it :) ) had/has brilliant crafting. I'm not expecting anything that complex in neverwinter though unfortunately but hopefully it will be fun and have a good element of time/reward for those that wish to spend the time and effort…
  • I did not mention the hardware once, the hardware used in the more recent macs over the last few years has been great! that does not make them good gaming machines though as the lack of support by the "majority" of games developers and driver support makes them a pain to game on, that's all I was saying. As far as blizzard…
  • Thanks that is what i was after
  • I don't want to come across rude or anything but if you have intentions of playing any kind of video games a mac isn't the solution, sure some companies will take the time and resources to adapt their games to the mac but the vast majority won't or will years after release, windows does not have to be a minefield of virus'…
  • let me know your character names so i can pre-ignore you :) it's this attitude that makes the sytem not work, I agree a better more sensible system would be one that limits the need button to those who can wear it but us as players need to take some responsibility on what we need or greed for. My personal preference is to…
  • 1. No 2. I dont think we can put random bosses 3. they said they are looking in to it :) it will probably be pretty generic armour with just customised stat allocation if it happens though. watch this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pn7iU4EwTc for the best information we have so far.
  • do yourself a favour and boot camp a windows OS (8 or 7 64bit are both good) then this will never have to be an issue for any games ever again :) (at the very least it will see you over until they release an official mac client which will probably be 9-12 months after launch (gusstimate)
  • personally from the 3 character slots i will have it will be 1) guardian fighter 2) devoted cleric 3) Great weapon fighter / maybe save it for a battle cleric when released I am one of the strange people that only ever plays tanks / healers and occasionally other support (when games have support roles) the actual…
  • Just to clarify, the amulet and box of goodies are one per account but the 12 slot bag is one per character created so it will probably be a good use of $20 if you buy the guardian pack but not worth it if you buy the hero pack (imo)
  • The biggest worry I have going in to a F2P game and looking to spend real money, what security do they have in place for our accounts? The best ones i've had are the key fobs (wow/swtor etc) imo but I don't mind things like "coin lock" (rift) or the authentication on gw2 I do try to keep my 2 PC's as safe as possible and…
  • I don't think just having N or NO work at all, I quite like NWO (even if there isnt an online suffix) DDN is too close to DDO imo
  • I always assume sarcasm before stupidity, although sarcasm is incredibly hard to convey over the internet
  • if you mean you bought the starter pack then you will not get beta access, the beta access is only for the Guardian pack (59.99) or the hero pack (199.99) this information has been said about a thousand times on these boards....seriously
  • The foundry is the most exciting part of NWO for me I'm really looking forward to it :) I already have my first 3 quest chains plotted out with characters and everything (I may have issues) Do you think it is worth downloading STO to try out the foundry there if i've never tried it before? how much do you have to do on STO…
  • Sorry Zaphtastic I hadn't read your post when I posted just now :) that was very interesting thankyou I would still like an external review site to help seperate the "wheat from the chaff" as it were in regards to finding intersting story quests etc
  • I do understand the concerns raised here but in reality I don't think it will benefit anyone to exploit the kind of things they can get in foundry levels, it will be up to the community to report any exploits that get through the net and we just have to hope right now that cryptic/pwe will act and ban the author etc. On a…
  • They haven't actually said what will be in them yet, I would be very surprised if it was anything game breaking like you mentioned there. My assumption is they will have potions/crafting stuff/buffs/stuff for companions and probably 1 or 2 extremely rare mounts and cosmetic looking armour (If they put actual armour in I…
  • I've Forgotten... "realms" or something?
  • I obviously mean the REALLY rare items/mounts/companions the kind you may only see 1 or 2 of in the years you play the game, i've lost count of the amount of amazing mounts they had on wow that are everywhere now and they have lost all sense of being "rare" or special, thats what I meant. I'm sure there'll be similar…
  • Everyone is concentrating on the negatives of lock boxes; I think we should all list the Pro's and Con's of them for YOU how YOU see them. I'll start; Pro's 1) best and fairest way to keep the rare items "rare" 2) good financial turn around for PWE (and Cryptic and the game) 3) completely optional as far as the game play…
  • I don't see how they differ too much from the trading cards and kinder egg analogy tbh, sure you may not know exactly what you are getting but you will know the "pool" of options that could be in the lock box, the value of which can vary drastically (maybe the kinder egg one is a bit weak on this :) ) it all boils down to…
  • By that logic Kinder eggs and trading sticker packs are also gambling :) I agree they are very tempting and are designed that way to MAKE people want to buy them that means they are doing there job. Lets not forget that you will be able to earn the currency in game to buy the keys so you can still partake in a few lock…
  • if that is a really big issue for you I wouldn't get too attached to NWO as it will most likely follow a similar model, if not straight off the bat then eventually, the biggest pitfall any game supported by a cash shop faces is that after a while you're only going to support the stuff that is being paid for I don't want…
  • Probably best to stay on the side of caution and if you need to use an echeque, make sure you order at least a weekend before the next beta (8-10th of march)
  • they're being quite tight-lipped about the Ingame Shop (I'm assuming that is what "IS" is?) We can hope for cosmetics only but that is a pipe-dream really, I think it is realistic to assume there will be temporary buffs, lockbox keys, storage space and mounts etc Also no doubt extra content and classes (and character…
