Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


On the newest station, it lists all of SOE's MMOs for me. It asks if I want to activate or try on all of them except star wars galaxies (which I also played besides planetside). It asks me for cdkey/code for planetside, for which I enter my # that I got from direct2drive when I purchased the game way back when. Says it is invalid or used (even though I used it on this account). I basically don't want to but planetside again, but I'm willing to pay monthly. I swear SOE doesn't want more subscribers. This is so difficult HELP!

*EDIT* It just occurred to me that I might have had more than one account... found my other login haha. Feel free to delete this, SORRY!

You might want to add a small appendix for Windows Vista "suffers" (No one uses Vista by choice)
I was installing PS on my brothers PC this morning and when I went to launch the game it told me I needed Windows XP or better, after my laughter subsided that even PS knew XP was better than Vista I went to change it and found that the compatibility mode was pre-set to Win98.

That on first install they may have to change the compatibility mode it's set to.

Right-Click on the planetside launcher

Click Properties

Go to the compatibility mode and untick the box.

I used Vista by choice. I never once had any problems with it. However, that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people experience issues with Vista so thanks for the update and possible work-around.

Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


So, I found someone who seemed interested in the game but couldn't produce a link for him to buy it...

How can I force direct2drive to show the US titles, or is Planetside available anywhere else?

Down at the bottom of the main page of Direct2Drive there's a 'Regions' section where you can select the UK or US.

How did I miss that, I specifically looked for something like this ><
Thanks

Fingers crossed for getting another player hooked on Planetside

edit

Waitasecond, it automatically and immediately redirects me (back) to the UK site :/
Does anyone else get that? If it's just me I gues it doesn't matter, but what will my prospective victim think about the game if his first impression is that it seemingly actively resists being bought

That works great, if you already have an account.

I never needed to buy anything. Made my account, downloaded the game, and played.
