Starting Free Trial - characters missing

I downloaded and installed CoH four days ago, and created a hero and villain. I've been alternating between the two, and last played as my hero last night. I just went to log in and both characters are gone. All slots are empty and I'm baffled. Any ideas?

Thanks!

There are 3 columns of characters. You might just be on one of the other 2 columns you don't have slots/characters on. Should be arrows at the bottom to change back to the first column.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

And make sure you're checking the same server you played last time too.

Did you go to a different server ?

There are 11 servers each with their own character slots



@Catwhoorg "Rule of Three - Finale" Arc# 1984
@Mr Falkland Islands"A Nation Goes Rogue" Arc# 2369 "Toasters and Pop Tarts" Arc#116617

Tried/though of all of that and nothing.

How many days ago did you open your trial?


 

Posted

4 days ago, Oct. 21st. I've played every day since then. Last played my hero last night. I looked through all the slots, and even tried logging into all the servers, but all the slots are blank, as if I just started again. I'm not sure if there is any way to look up a character to see it's status, etc.

Probably a silly question, but you didn't share your account with anyone? Alternatively, you *did* use a different username and password than on other games, correct? And you didn't actually visit one of those "friendly" sites that offers to give you millions of influence in exchange for real money, did you?

lol, nope, I keep my user/pass combos unique and I don't "visit" unfriendly sites.
since I'm new to CoH, can a player logged in do a look-up on another player? If so, maybe someone can do a look-up on one of my two characters.

Ok strange thing. Logged in again (did a verify files), and went back to the server I've been using (Infinity) and both characters are back. thanks for giving suggestions. See you out there.

Just to point it out, but someone might eventually have a problem with the name of your second character. I'm pretty sure the intent was the Spanish version of "The Black Devil," but some people are just going to fixate on that last word.

I would hope that any even passingly non-moronic GM would laugh at such a petition, and perhaps pass action against the petioner, and NOT the petionee.

I don't have a problem with it. But I've seen people flip out over less. This is the Internets! Someone out there is ready to be offended by anything. Or everything. Heck, I've seen someone start pitching a fit on zone broadcast because "I'm a Christian and it *OFFENDS* me how many demonic characters are running around." And this was in *Mercy Island.* They made a villain, and then decided to be morally outraged that they were surrounded by villainous looking people.
