Downloading Coh
<div class="IPBDescription">Y'know, legal like</div> O.k, i've recently purchased COH (city of heroes in case you couldn't tell) from, shall we say an aquaintance, and they've sent me the CD key.
Problem is, I can't actually start the game with only the CD key, I need the game itself. I had assumed that when I activated my account it would show me a link to download the game, but no such luck.
What i'd like to know is; is there a way to dowload the game client itself? Like I said, I have an active account (with my month trial slowly ticking away), I just need the actual installation files. No, I don't have any friends with the game that I could borrow the CD off <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
It's either that or I ask for the CDs to be sent as well, and I wasn't going to have them sent since i'm in the UK and the seller isn't... muchos postage.
Yes, I know, this would be better posted on the COH forums...

That would work if I was buying the game online. Essentially I have bought a boxed game, I just don't have the CD if you see what I mean. If I do what you suggest i'll need to pay again.
On a less critical COH related note, can anyone tell me what the "war mace" that the tanker class can use looks like? I've got a hero in mind that would need to be armed with a hammer-like weapon, but if the war mace doesn't look anything like a hammer i'll just be unoriginal and make him a martial arts scrapper <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I'm assuming the person you bought it from doesn't play anymore so if he could give you his account then you can log into it through playNC and download the game from the "Purchased Serial Codes" section
cough*warez*cough
And the mace looks like a spiked sphere on the end of a stick. I have a mace tanker. It's excellent animation.
No warez here, I just didn't want to pay postage on something coming from America when I THOUGHT I could use it without.
The person I bought it from never played it. I created a brand new account and there are no <u>ONLINE</u> purchased serial codes since it was bought from a box.
I guess i'm just going to have to pay the postage.
Now I've actually thought about it, I'll just give you the ftp address from the download link on my page. <a href='ftp://coh:client@client.coh.com/Coh.zip' target='_blank'>ftp://coh:client@client.coh.com/Coh.zip</a>
Note: all legal and stuff, you need to create an PlayNC account with your cd-key and log in using that.
