How many people are going to subscribe at the end of the trial period? Would be sad to start all this teamplay to be decimated in 2 weeks

*votes move to europe if we all decide to do it properly*

<a href="http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/677219/ ... html">City of Heroes/Villains</a> on play.com for £11.99, to me that sounds fucking good value for an MMO double pack

I'm already subscribed, but I'm not moving servers as I would lose all my characters (not just my low level ones from CoH, but the higher ones from CoV also).

i am thinking about getting this when the 2 weeks is up as i am enjoying this rather alot, but yes it would be a shame if only 1 or 2 people subscribe

i have to admit tho, for being on american servers the lag is very low apart from occasional loss of map server.

actually (and I do need to check this out properly) we may be able to move all your characters from the american servers to the EU ones. I know I certainly can, I imagine its possible for everyone else too. I shall check.

However, if we do do this, I would suggest waiting till after the trial. I dont want to waste the last days of the trial because all my characters are in limbo between servers.

Depending on funds, I may be up for a few more months of this :)

do we just say these characters were made pre eu-servers or something?

I will be re-subscribing at the end of the month.

If we can move our toons, then yes, I willl buy an EU copy, its cheaper than buying COH as I only own COV

Oh, er probably not. Got to the level where you get hover and thought: "fuck it'll take ages to get fly" and gave up. Exactly like the last two times.

I'm still playing - will probably continue until I get bored or poor.

When I finally get some money from my somewhat reluctant clients, I shall start playing again. Presuming that this happens before interest in the the game fades/the sun burns out to a withered crisp.

Will do when I've exhausted the interest of all other games I'm playing at the moment.

if you mean you were on a two week trial, then yes, you need to buy the game.

However, you can get just the code directly from them, dont think it costs much anymore. I could be wrong though (on the price, that is)

I am still using the trail client without any problems. Simply went to the the Play NC webby and set-up a rolling month subscription using the details they already had.

As for time cards, I know voddy uses them, not sure what client he uses though. As far as I can tell, using the trial client only means you miss out on the bonus gadgets you get for purchasing the double CoH/CoV edition.

oh, yes, the client is the same. Thought you mean "do you need to buy the game" (which you do). Only for the activation code though.
