Have key, registered with fileplanet, downloaded fine, being ponced around by Amazon.co.uk - key doesn't register on CO site, rolled Slayer and taking it out on DoKs in Nordenwatch (talk about ahead of the curve, my slayer has to wait for his XP to catch up so his RR doesn't go above his lvl excellent for thought free PvP)

Key should work - mine worked this morning (although I had to open the CO site in IE) :)

all sorted - see you all there.  Any idea when the lifetime sub offer ends? if the game is halfway decent I'm quite tempted.

id imagine its a numbers thing so when the alloted number has been taken then its done.

I'd heard the offer was on till September 1st, so you should have time to try out the Open Beta and buy lifetime if you think its worth it.

I am tempted, as lifetimes are perfect for me with MMO ADD :)

I won't be playing CO, tbh it doesn't look like my kind of MMO (too much generic grinding on first sight) and I don't really think it'll be worth the 40 euro or so to try it out for a month or two.

i dont see the grind TBH more than enough missions to level never found myself grinding to fill a level gap once.

the grind will be to finish perks for unlocks but its not required in anyway and only needed if like me you have a pokemon mentality

Ok, let me rephrase: too many generic missions/quests on first sight (making the game feel grindey) :)

I think thats just MMO's in general. Very few break the mold (Yes, I know EvE is one of them, before you say it Jon :D).

Considering CO is done in the style of most modern MMO's (WoW, WAR, LOTRO etc), I have to agree with Caradir's view.

At least it isn't CoX. Now, that is grindy! ;D
