Challenge Account Creation

Cobbiusto · 11-02-2018, 05:28 AM

This is likely not a bug but rather me not being able to figure out how to create an account, but I can not find any info about this anywhere. I can open the dialog box to create a Challenge account; fill in email and password info but when I hit the register button nothing happens. If I hit the "?" help button nothing happens. Ultimately I have to hit cancel to exit the box. I am unable to login using the created account, receive no email or anything. So I assume there's something I'm not doing. I have the game through Steam (and haven't registered a license or anything if I am supposed to), have antivirus and ad blocker software if any of that is relevant. Had not needed account before but am excited to try the Perfect Team project.
Thanks for any help.

Hmm, sounds like it might be a bug. Unless I'm missing something, from what you're describing, I think you're doing things right.

What OS are you on? Are you in Windowed or Full screen mode?

After your confirmation above that I was not doing something obviously wrong, I checked and found that I had some video drivers that needed updating. After doing that and going full screen, everything worked and I was able to create an account just in time for Perfect Team!

Thanks much for your quick reply and guidance.

also having the same issues, tried both full screen and windowed mode, running an old video driver but its the most stable one for my system, have never been able to register, but now with perfect team this is a huge bummer

Yeah, I'm also in the same situation. I've tried reinstalling the game, and that has not worked.

If you're still having trouble, can you also try disabling your firewall and anti-virus before trying to register to see if that changes anything?
