errr
maybe you should get a Visa card or something then. It's not like they're US exclusive cards :rolleyes:

just go to the bank and they'll give you one (if you can prove you got a job or something that garantees you can pay them for the credit they give you on the card)

And don't make fun of me cause I can't write gaurantee, OK :(

ask a family member or something if they will sign up for you with their card, and then you just give them cash every month
SO many ways around it, come on, be creative lol

visa delta is like a switch debit card follows the same principles but its more available worldwide because of its visa sign.

chk with ur bank cos there are disclaimers that some banks may not be responsible for internet payment that go fux0rs if you use ur debit card and might not offer any protection against fraud over the net unlike credit cards which do.

I can understand ur complaining but i HAD to get visa if i wanted to play this game. As for shadowbane only seen graphics for it and cant say i liked them, i dont think many ppl even know the game.

In England Visa Delta's are almost worthless for anything REAL, they basically double as a cash card that's about it.

Prod - Ask your parents/friends about an Electron card, that's our closest proximily afaik.

As for topic;
Yup.
SB is crap.

It's way more known that Neocron.

Shadowbane is alright, it's a lot more 20 vs 20 or 30 vs 30 type PVP/GVG than it is 1 vs 1 or anything. From when I played it was like 95% 30vs30++++ fights, the only times you got 1 vs 1 was when you were running somewhere and happened to find someone else running solo. Which I didn't like. Big scale PVP is boring cuz you as one person hardly have any control over it.

You spared yourself alot of painful experiences with Shadowbane. And there are alot of them. The game is just bad, awful bad, real awful bad.

shadowbane is the most hardcore game on the market atm.

because of that reason, its an amazing game...i know alot of people irl that play it and they all LOVE it...and they all left NC because of pvp restrictions such as sl and quickbelt drops

if you want a game thats just pure killing, thieving, looting, and an actual dark/dense world, this is it

oh yeah and it has 2000+ on each server at night, kind of appealing when you're used to 150 on each server

i dont find it fun, cuz im a noob in it :p and i would rather live with neocron's weaknesses and know what im doing in the game

but yeah, they're two totally different games...different playstyles, different pvp....

but in the end, in neocron u kill someone and get nothing but a sl hit. in shadowbane you kill someone, get all the money that was on them at the time, get all thier inventory items, and it doesn't matter if its your brother in the same clan as you, no sl hits, no restrictions whatsoever...

just like old school UO that i miss dearly *sigh*

And considering they consolidated their servers down not too long ago. It's hardcore, yes, and it can be fun, if you can look past the glaring imperfections.

o_O

Visa delta follow the same principles as switch its accepted everywhere and can use it as a cheque guarantee card, quite a lot of banks use visa delta instead of switch and vice versa but there is no difference if paying for goods.

The game sucks a fat monkey dick, and what shocks me even more is that Ubisoft even went witht eh notion of putting out an expansion 6 months after retail release of shadowlame when it is such a pathetic peice of dogshit. The number of ppl actually playing Shadowbane is just a little bit higher than Neocron. It is no where near 2000 ppl on at peak time.
