    Sharing accounts with my son

    Hello all,

    I have been playing KOC on my Iphone since Jan 2012 in both Lancelot and Kay2. My son is also using my phone to play on Ector8 (he has been playing a while and has 2 cities). We are getting him an ipod 4 for his birthday and he will be using this to play KOC from now on. The question I have is will it be possible for him to carry on in Ector8 or will he have to start from scratch?

    Any help would be appreciated.


    Regards

    Wonker

    He can play in ector 8 but will still be using your overall "account". This means that when you log on to your account it will refresh and take it from him. Ultimately you will both not be able to play at the same time as you would be sharing the account. I do the same thing between my iPad when I am at home and my iPhone when I'm out of the house

      Thanks for the reply and that is not a problem as I tend to play at night when he is in bed. So what do I have to do to ensure that happens as I would imagine if he downloaded the game from the store then it would not 'know' that he is using my account?

      Thanks

        I assume that when he started the game up it would ask for a kabam Id and password, it shouldn't make a difference on whose apple device its on.

          On my iphone (we haven't got him the ipod yet), it does not ask for a kabam username and password it just logs straight in?

            This is because the App recognizes you iPhone UDID that is a unique identification for that specific iPhone.

            You have to create a KabamID if you want to play with the same account using more than one device (iPhone-iPod) To see if you have or not a Kabam ID, click on your player name, then on the "Cog" on the Top Right to enter the "Settings" Tab. Tap on KabamID (the 1st on Top) and see if it shows an ID. If it doesn't, I strongly suggest you to create one, it will link to your actual game so you won't lose any Data in the 3 worlds you and your son are playing. Basically the KabamID is the only way to retrieve your game info if something happens to your Phone (i.e. If you dive in the Pool with the Phone in your pocket...if you lose the phone, or it breaks)

            I hope this helps

              Excellent. I have checked and I have a Kabam Id, it's my email address. So I take it the first time he logs in he will be asked for the username and password? Do I have to download the game again or can I just sync it to his device using Itunes?

              Last question (sorry), if he 'wants' to start again on a separate account, how will he go about doing that and will he then be able to log in using his new details AND sometimes log in using my kabam id?

              Hope what I'm asking makes sense.

              Cheers

                Hey Wonker,
                He should download the App from the App Store with his new (Thanks Dad!) device...it's free... and after the Tutorial he has to go to the setting pages and just log in with YOUR email and password linked to YOUR KabamID, and all your (and his) game info will appear in his ipod

                If he wants to start from scratch just have him download the game from the App Store...also have him create his own kabamID... BUT he won't be able to log out so if he wants to re-log with your credential he will have to DELETE the APP re-install it and then log. The same process if he wants to go back to his "new" kabam ID!

                more info below:

                Creating your KabamID is completely free and it only takes a moment! To set up your account, simply tap on “Settings” on the top right of the “Player Info” tab. Tap on “Kabam ID” and sign up for a new account!


                The Benefits of signing up:
                -Saves your game progress
                -Receive 75 free Gems!
                -Receive exclusive offers
                -Play games for free without a download
                -Interact with fellow gamers from around the world
                -Participate in the community by posting in the Forums


                Make sure you enter your Email Address carefully (and correctly) when creating an account! If you input the Email Address incorrectly when signing up for a kabamID
                you will not able to access Password Reset Request emails to change passwords, you won't receive KoC: Battle for the North e-mail s concerning Events, Promotions and Sales.

                  Thanks very much for the information Riccardo,

                  I get it now. Once you've logged in using your Kabam Id, you can't log in again using another. Makes sense.

                  Think I'll try to convince him to have his own id, that way I can get a 'secret city' in Lancelot and Kay2 :-)


                  Thank you for your help

                    My pleasure,
                    That's a good tactic...and it's the minimum he should do to re-pay you for the iPod
