When the Asian version is out, are we able to register a Konami ID under Malaysia or Singapore? Cause I don't even see Singapore in the country field.
Unless the Game ID is universal and could be used on any region's server then it's all good

Follow slickz godly methods. It will work
QUOTE(slickz @ Apr 19 2008, 04:29 PM) Due to extreme want to play the beta, I guess I have to lift my media blackout just to view this thread to participate in the beta test program . hello Be patient and keep clicking refresh.K I managed to get myself a konami id and already confirmed my email with them. In less than half an hour mind you! How ? 1. Download firefox's Autoformer Add-on tool. 2. Go to http://id.konami.net and fill in the details. Try to be as accurate as possible. I even used google maps to make sure I had an authentic postbox, city and region in australia. No need to rush. For both of the registration pages, before clicking next click edit > Autoformer > save all fields. 3. Now since u took ur sweet time to give as accurate data as possible, the registration process will likely fail. No sweat. Just retry, BUT this time the autoformer will refill all the necessary data for you. Just click fast fast to the next one! Sure can one ! 4. Check email. I got my reply in less than 10 seconds. Click link in email to agree. Will likely fail also. Mine did fail. Retry. 5. Profit! Now can I ask you kind sirs where can I download the beta file? P2P? Uncle Google didnt know what to tell me. Regarding the part where you key in your ID, don't click on 'Check for Availability'. When you are done filling the form, use the Autoformer tool and save the datas. Then click next. If it dies, just keep refreshing. And if your ID is used, just key in a new one, RESAVE THE DATAS and click next again. The reason I don't recommend the usage of the 'Check for Availability' option is because if the page does not load, you will risk having your session expire. Well that is just me. So yeah. Lol I don't know how to explain.. Added on April 20, 2008, 9:51 pm QUOTE(kevinboey86 @ Apr 20 2008, 09:45 PM) Select UK. Make sure you have a real postcode in one of the cities in UK.This post has been edited by Muchi: Apr 20 2008, 09:57 PM |

Man, I really hope they don't screen IPs when it comes to actually connecting to their servers. Cause if they do, we're all f**ked.

For the patch download, let's say I download it until 10% then I stop it. Will it continue from 10% when the next time I continue downloading?

I asked this very question a coupla pages back. Answer: Did you choose the P2P option? If so, then yes. If not, then...choose the P2P option. |

For those having trouble still registering with konami.net here is the post (again) i found on the internet that helped me through it:
I figured out a work-around that seems to work, but you have to be fast and have a bit of patience. Getting past the first couple of screens very quickly got to be easier (with lots of practice)... but the long registration form is what killed me each time. So, here is what seems to work: 1) Get to the long registration form as quickly as possible... then RELAX. Fill out this form very carefully and slowly. Remember that the KONAMI ID NAME must be all lower case and the password must have at least some letters in it and be at least 8 characters long... whereas the GAME ID NAME must be different and the password must be ALL NUMERIC. 2) DON'T submit this (you'll get a timeout)... just make sure it is fully filled out and ready... keep the screen near the submit button. Then, open a new tab in your browser. 3) In the new tab, visit the Konami ID site again. Go through the first set of screens very quickly and if you manage to get to the long registration form and it loads completely (and quickly,) switch back to the tab that was fully filled out and quickly hit submit. 4) Be prepared for the confirmation page. As SOON as it loads, quickly scroll down and click REGISTER. Don't bother looking over your information, because it will time-out. After many tries, this seemed to work for me. FINALLY. It seems the system gives you a session ID that times out WAY TOO SOON for EVERY STEP. Don't they actually want anyone to read at least two words of their agreement on the second page? Apparently not. Oh, and if you get the generic "Our servers are down" type of message instead of the usual "we deleted your session" message... you can recover from this by entering this into your browser's address bar and hitting enter: javascript:alert(document.coo kie=''); If a blank alert box pops up, your browser supports this and just nuked the cookie for the site you were visiting. This should let Konami's servers to let you try again sooner, rather than giving you this generic message for a while. Hope this helps. I kept at this for a while until I discovered exactly how Konami's servers were trying to handle this situation, then came up with this solution to circumvent their silliness. It would be much better if they didn't have this problem to begin with. |
