OMG the update is still not here for europe!

also where is this soccer thing? i cant find it in the game!

they really should have had some better instructions, and some arrows in the menus for those who WERENT in the beta!

You have to go to Find a game and select the soccer map.

PATCH IS UP FOR EUROPE!

:woot: Only 13MB too, so it downloads in seconds!

EDIT: Whatever they did, they've done well. I've just joined three games at the first attempt of trying, and experienced no lag what-so-ever! :D

Finally able to put some time into this game!

Man, i'm pretty worried now. I used my debt card with them so i don't know if i'll get any calls from my bank. Going to have to check any charges to my account.

Nearly ?300 was stolen from me recently, used to buy an airplane ticket somewhere in the Czech Republic. I'm 99% sure it has to do with ShopTo as well, because I rarely ever use my CC. So anyone who had a CC tied to their ShopTo account back when their Database was exposed, get a new card.

Yeah I have used shopto this year.

Done a bit of searching around the internet this week and it quickly becomes apparent that a lot of those fraudulent transactions happen to people who have used shopto.

From what I understand it seems the bad guys try a phone top up as you don’t have to speak to an actually human over the phone, this is to test the card should the purchase go through then they would move on to buying more extravagant purchases.

Lucky for me the bank has stopped the purchase and cancelled my card immediately, just waiting for a replacement.

Damn really?

I got phoned a few weeks back by Halifax fraud saying a ?25 or ?30 (cant remember which) phone top up was attempted, and a ?1.79 "tester charge". They asked me to confirm if it was me, I said noooo, payments blocked, no card issued. I thought to myself how the ****? As the bank account it's tied to hasn't been used by me since March this year (old student account).

Now it clicks, that account used to be used for my ShopTo account. I thought that was suppose to just be a "scare", Shop:no:no:

Only just read your comments guys, but yup, exactly the same story. They said people use top up cards for testers and if they get away with it they'll move onto more expensive items. My bank spotted it and called me right away. They mentioned a charge for 99p which I actually thought was legit and a purchase from the App Store on iTunes, but after reading AB's comments it looks like it was another fraud attempt.

.Kick from Neowin also had some trouble with his bank a few months ago which he pretty much led back to Shopto. A frickin' j(N) (N)

cant you report the site?

also just curious which airport in CZ? if you have the details maybe you could track em down :)

Shopto already released an official statement/comment on the security breach they had. According to them though, no personal details were taken, which was obviously a huge lie.

It's not the actual site stealing the money, so I don't think there is anything you can report them for.

This is basically all the information I have, it's from my bank statement;

"CSA AIRLINE 06476908" 14/07/2009

And yes, I did get my money bank after a lot of paper work.

    • The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
