MP issue

[celtickyrie]

Ok I bit the bullet and tried to catch up with the rest of the crowd by going online to play S2 but I cannot get on closed net. Every time I tried it kept saying error 71 Character/account already exists please choose a different name. Did I do something wrong when I created the account?

If you are unable to go online at all, then that should just mean that the name you wanted was taken by somebody else, so you need to try a new one.

I had the same issue when I was going to use my same name from S1, so I am thinking that if you tried the same one from 1, then that is why you can not take the name now.

If you have already made the account and be online with it before, then there could be a problem, maybe you are just trying to create a new account, and not just the log on area.

Ok will try using a different verision of the name I used in S1, as the name I was trying to use is the one I created there. Thanks for the tip Area. Figured I would get up to date with the rest of you all here in the forum since I finished the game with my Sera today.

Ah good then, I am playing through the main game again myself here, although all I am doing this time is the sera specifc quest along with the main one, and going to fight all the optional bosses. I played online for a bit 2 weeks or so ago, but not many people were playing in the open rooms, and I have yet to make a closed char yet.

I can get on Open net but I cant get on Closed is all I get as far as logging into the lobby but I get the error whenever I go to create a character. MY name on open net is Kyrie

When i play online i seem to get a 1 or 2 second delay with everything i do, such as talking to a NPC or attacking and the most annoying is using potions! Hence why i play SP, does anyone know why or is it just my internet connection?

Error 71 i guess? you have to name every toon, accounts are private for safety against hacking in sacred2.
choose your class and go top left(ish) and choose your name.

(this is a frequently asked question )

and mitch, have you tried grapical changes? i know its wierd when it runs in SP but if it requires more for some reason...? its alot of threads about stuff like that over at the SiF and some talented computer folks helps them go search there

[celtickyrie]

ty so much for your information Erling much appreciated as I know alot of dubbing and hacking can go on in Open net and I don't know who to trust either.

WOOT! Thanks so much I have now created my Dryad Kyriee on Closed net and should start playing her in Bronze sometime today.
