Used it to play CoH/CoV, but ever since these came out, they got rid of the independent cards, for every game. I'm guessing that's why the price went up. No point of ordering it off of Amazon, it goes $30+ WITH a waiting period, not worth it. I rather just go to the site and order monthly for $15 rather than paying more. I think I will wait until Amazon decides to drop the price to $21 again, that was a good deal.
The purpose of these cards is to allow people to pay cash for game time. Since you can't pay with cash on Amazon, that defeats the whole purpose. If you're going to buy game time online use PlayNC, it's the same price or cheaper, and you don't have to wait for delivery (or pay extra to have it sooner). If you don't want to use a credit card go find these card in retail outlets.
I found this on amazon and was like shoot, im saving money buying this on amazon than paying for an actual monthly subscription to the game. Easy to use and found it a better option rather than keeping track of credit card billing each month.
These cards are becoming critical when playing NCsoft games. After having accounts hacked, and issues with the security of the NCSoft Master Accounts, the cards can be purchased here without giving your CC# to NCSoft.
Its always a plus to find these cards online rather then not find them in stores now-a-days
60 days of paid time within NCSoft games, what more is there to say? :< Codes worked, came out even cheaper in the end with buying these time cards.
This online game is fun, but I don't want to put my credit card online EVER. The play card allows online gaming without the risk.
This time card is a great way to pay for game time for City of Heroes, Auto Assault and other NC Soft games. If you have a monthly subscription, you pay around $15 but you also pay taxes, so it becomes around $17 total. If you shop around, it is possible to buy a 60 day ( 2 month) time card for $25-27 instead of paying $30+taxes for a 2 month subscription.
this is ridiculous pricing, this is a $30.00 item, i have bought dozens of this item what is going on here?
Complaining about ordering versus just paying the monthly fee is missing the point of part of the purpose of these cards. We have a friend who, because of financial constraints, can't currently afford to foot the bill for City of Heroes, which he used to play. A few of us who do play are looking to purchase at least 6 months of game time for him for the holidays, and this is a great way to help him participate in a hobby he loves.
With these timecards at last glance costing roughly $25, and getting free shipping on orders of $25 or over, it's worth it to save yourself the five bucks and order one through Amazon. They work on Lineage, Lineage 2, CoX, and Aion.
Before buying this version of NCSoft's timecard, though, you may want to check individual game timecards by the company. I bought one of these generic timecards and 3 Lineage 2 timecards, and they worked out to costing almost the same after subtracting shipping and handling. It's a little known fact that any NCSoft timecard works with any NCSoft game. Do your research! At this time, I have not checked to see if there are still any L2 timecards available for around $10-$15 a pop (that's for 60 days). But if there are, get those instead, since they WILL work with Aion.
I am not going to evaluate the games this 60-Day online subsgription card applies to. This was for my sons, the game players in the houshold. My problem was with the delivery of this piece.
First, I was charged over $7 for shipping which seems odd for something that could fit in a standard envelope. When the package arrived I could see why the shipping was so much. It started with a bubble wrap reinforced envelope. Inside that we found a plastic DVD case, complete with full color printed label, just like what you would buy a movie in. Finally you open the plastic case and find a plastic card (like a credit card) also printed in full color. Finally my boys find what they were looking for, the number they need to type in to the game to update their time. This seems obscene in light of the country's need to cut back on fossil fuels to invest all this plastic into the delivery of a number.
euro version .not us version plz send me hurry . dont send me us version. i need euro version time card.... asap
It is important to note that this card cannot be used to activate an account, a specific Game Card is required for that. It would have been helpful to have been provided this information at the time of purchace. The Game Time Card can only be used to add time to existing games. This is NOT a Game Card for upgrading or Activating a new account.
