Multiplayer account creation

[bunhun00]

I am attempting to create a multiplayer account, and I have been unsuccessful. I have followed all of the criteria but it said "Registering..." in red letters then nothing. My husband was able to create his account but I cannot. Is it because we have a shared IP? I would really like to play. Please help.

 

Update:

Everything worked out! We can now play together on multiplayer! Thanks again everyone!

Yep, you share the same public IP. Registration of accounts by the same public IP is limited to one per hour, so either wait that hour or just play a local match. The account is only needed for the lobby.

Hello and welcome to the forums.

Unfortunately due to massive account creation spam these days a count creation on the same IP is limited to one per hour. See https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/FAQ

In the meantime if you only intended to play against one another you can use the other multiplayer options and connect directly via IP. If you need help doing so please let me know.

@user1 Can you make sure they are registered as two different persons so they don't get banned ?

Thank you for your help. And yes, we are two different people. My husband already has his account and now I guess I need to wait an hour then I will make mine! Thanks again!

There is no such registry. Only users who make more than one account per person are breaking the rules.

Hundreds (if not thousands) of users play from shared IPs and it's very easy to tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys

So should I have him make an account on here too? I'm just confused by what you are saying.
