EotN Access code too short. What am I missing here? - Guild Wars Forums

forester007 · May 01, 2009, 01:50 AM // 01:50

Just bought eye of the north and the access code I received is only 11 digits long. Uh... did I miss something here? Last time I check you needed a 25 digit code, not 11.

It's possible you scratched off the rest of the code as you were unveiling it. Take it back to shop but most likely you'll need to buy another copy and be more careful next time

Ha ha no.

There was no tampering of any sort with anything. I open the boxed and found the access *card* which has the access number written on it. I glanced at the number and was like.... uh, that's too short. What am I supposed to do with this?

This has nothing to do with human error. I'm starting to wish it was that simple though >.<.

Am I supposed to exchange this access code for a longer one or something, I don't know what the heck they think I'm supposed to do with this.

Here's a pick of the Access Key Card and I covered up the code, but trust me it's only 11 digits long

Open the thing up already, the code is inside.

Good thing you can laugh about it.

To add, not every card is the same. You got the scratch-off creditcard, you got the white paper you'll need to tear the edges off, and some people just bought the game online, so never had to add a key.

I've never seen this kind of device, so I'd say your guildies didn't know either

Yeah they may not have known, i've never seen it like that before, all my codes were on like a scratch card type thing
