    IP shouldn't matter .. i'm in UK, bought a NA code from Gaming Dragons, applied that and no probs.

    They did post something about if you were in a NA beta and had EU code but not sure how exact that was .. I only trust Customer Service so far. They all give differing answers.

    But as soon as I applied my code I emailed Carbine, asked them to verify it was set as NA on my account. So then if it went wrong .. it was THEIR fault lol

    Ok, here goes, in the client top right corner beside close button, i do mean the client where you see the update status and play button, there is a button there click it then change to language to install and display to french and change region to Europe.

    Hope it will work for you.

    Well, with your very limited explication about the situation, I cannot do much. 

    Last think I recommend you is :

    1) Get a socks/proxy/ ... just change your IP is what I mean ( Europe of course ) ( Google : hidemyass ).

    2) Create a new email , create NcSoft account, ACTIVATE your account , add Wildstar Key and .. 

    3) Voila! It should work.

    If not, then you are doing something wrong.

    Good luck!

    Alright i managed to activate an account, but i still regret my choice,  everyone in europe sleeping when i have time to play, and having  permanent 1-2 second ping :(, unplayable, now theres no way they will transfert me. What a waste...

    Seriously, DUH!

    Call me old fashioned but you could have saved yourself a lot of trouble and just picked the region you fekkin live in!!

    It took you this mistake to realise us euro's are asleep in your NA primetime? Ohmagerd !

    Sounds like you learned the difference between correlation and causality.

    Wildstar was very open about their region lock and was stated months ago. Im shocked you cant get a refund, where did you buy it from?
  • alx12345alx12345 Member Posts: 39

    From MMOGA.

    I asked to get a region transfert on wildstar support, next day they just deleted my support request!

    NA - Myrcalus (Oceanic PvE) is the official server (still located in the US though) 

     

    Always found it quite strange that We are aligned with NA for mmorpg games.

    Not that strange, just compare latencies between a West Coast server and a European one.  It is the way the undersea cables are connected.

    Because People have been bitching like no tomorrow for localized servers. That´s why.

    People ask for it. Companies deliver it.
