Can anyone help me?

I got this game today, I thought I might try it since it's fast paced and all drop in to play thing.

I don't know how to patch it! Should I start using Patch 1 to 5 or 5 only?? Also, why whenever I click create new account, it says lost connection to Massgate??? WHY?? Please,I don't wanna waste 159 bucks for nothing here.

Try to create your massgate account...make sure nothing else is eating your bandwidth..check your Streamyx connection working properly...maybe you can try at not peak period too..then when you have created a new accoutn...you log in to massgate...and after log in it will automatically download the patch for you so you can play online with everyone else...

You have to click the server button to see the server list. I usually play on the Taiwan SOC server because the ping time on that server is low compared to those in the US and other countries.

Update 6 on the horizon...

Change list

This update will go live on Wednesday February 13th. Expect Massgate to be down for implementation of the update between 10:00 and 13:00 CET.
