− | ==== PlayNC European Store Update ====
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | According to ThinIce on the official forums, the following message was received by support regarding the inability for players to order game and upgrade codes for servers outside of their region:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | :"We apologise for the inconvenience, however if you cannot currently see the option to purchase a US serial code, this will be changed in a few days. In the meantime, we thank you for your patience." [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=7787216#Post7787216]
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | It now appears that the change to the stores was intended only to be a default, not to lock players into playing on certain servers. More updates will be posted as received.

− | ==== European Players Denied U.S. Server Access ====
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Important Note:''' To clarify, ''existing'' European players are still able to access the U.S. Servers. The following applies to ''new'' accounts and account upgrades only.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Players with European IP addresses are now unable to purchase game codes for playing on U.S. servers.[http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=7764218] As a result, all new purchases of City of Heroes, City of Villains, and premium account upgrade options from NCsoft within Europe are effectively denied for non-European server access. This action was implemented without any advance warning, other than an announcement that the option to transfer accounts from U.S. servers to to European servers would be disabled[http://de.boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=740056#Post740056], with no warning that new accounts and premium account upgrades would be denied to European players.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The motives behind this decision are subject only to speculation, but a post in the official NCsoft forums offering to facilitate Europeans obtaining codes for playing on U.S. servers was deleted. Since NCsoft doesn't wish for messages pertaining to such an offer to be posted on their site, I (TonyV) will echo it here:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | :If anyone wants to get a U.S. code, drop me a PM or e-mail me at [mailto:tonyv@pcfreepress.com tonyv@pcfreepress.com] and we'll see if we can work out getting you one through PayPal or something. (But that's just a friendly offer; if I start getting hundreds of requests or people don't pay me back, I'll stop.)
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | If you wish to contact me via forum private message regarding this offer, please do so on the [http://paragonwiki.com/forums Paragon Forums] instead of NCsoft's forums, as I do wish to respect their decision not to have messages of such a subject posted or sent via their forums.

− | | + | |
− | Want to contribute to the Paragon Wiki but don't know where to start? One good place to start is by editing articles that are designated as [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Stub|Stub]] articles and [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Wip|Work in Progress]] articles. These articles need anything from minor tweaks to major overhauls, and anything you have to add would be appreciated!
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | If you want to dive into writing some highly needed articles from scratch, check out the list of [[Special:Wantedpages|Wanted Pages]]. These are pages that are linked to from other pages but that have no articles associated with them. They are sorted by the number of links that point to them, so by filling in the articles towards the top of the list, you will be giving the most bang for your temporal buck.
