Are androids and Iphones declared as "required" for playing this game?

The emulator does not come with android market built in. You need to get a cracked/modified version from some random guy on the internet and do obscure manipulation with the android debug tools before you can download and install the authenticator.

That's a very unreliable and unsecure way to get access to 1hr fleet pass as you end up with your account tied to an emulator with hacked android market and an authenticator app that's known to bug even on the real device...

Emulator is not a solution.

The point is that the 1hr fleet pass is a tool. And a useful one. I think that rewarding players for securing their account is a good idea, and I would not care if players with authenticator could get social armor or whatever as long as it's a vanity item. But the fleet pass is not a vanity item, and therefore should be available to all players.

Hmm... so that's much less secure than just no having one to start with.


That's just it, if the EFP was a 1 hour CD and the FP was a 30 min CD there wouldn't be much of an issue. Or if it was just difference colour social gear and pets (or something), but something intrinsic to the game as travel, it's a strange decision to actively punish people no using security keys.

If what is mentioned above is true, using that is much, much more risky than a non-security keyed account on a properly secure system.

Why can't I have that Ferarri like that guy down the street! I bought my car and got a Subaru instead... if Ferarri's are available I am entitled to one! It is a necessity for travel

Except the android emulator has no IMEI number, so the authenticator app wouldn't work and you would be stuck out of your account.

/thread?

I pay my car tax and yet unlike Fred I can't drive my Ferarri through traffic lights, because Fred got an app on his mobile that lets him avoid all the traffic lights in town IF he types in the code every time he starts his Ferarri!

Silly analogys FTW!!!!

Chill out for a second, maybe you explained things better he would have understood your dilemma.

So you say you cannot buy an authentication key chain fob ($4)? Well then that sucks, but that's also your problem for buying the game out of market. You cannot seriously go complain and moan when you're part of the grey market. It's like buying/importing a car that is not sold in your country, you totally took that risk and I'm just sorry.

Make a ticket in game and complain then, maybe it will somehow reach head office.
As for your dilemma now, go get it on eBay http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Star-Wars-Old...#ht_594wt_1139

Umm the only real purpose is to access the vendor. Unless you buy gold, use leveling services, share your pw or go to cheat sites you will never have a security issue on your account. No one who doesn't do those things has had their account hacked. Now people will CLAIM they haven't done those things, but my experience in a large guild and in years of MMO gaming it never happens.

The reason that the security app is only made for android and iPhone devices is the that digipass(i believe that's the name) is the actual manufacture of the hardware and the writers of the sec app for mobile devices ,not bio ware , ,what the app is for is to increase the security on your account ,they are offering it free to those with mobile apps and for shipping costs if you order the FOB BW ,Bliz ,trion and a few other games out there use this exact same system .If there's a reason why they can't ship to you it may be due to many things like import export law custom's or they may just not have a set up a trade agreement with Russia over the shipping of so many devices ,i did a search on why this is and it seems that Russia is a bit harsh on what comes in and out of there country and in this day and age with so many people shipping what they shouldn't i can't really blame them .
OP you have been given many different options of how to get a sec key app either by using the emulator ,going to eBay and buying one ,or getting a smartphone i know you said last option isn't available to you (witch is why i left out the key fob as well) .BW just adds the benefit of having the key to get a couple pieces of socket-able gear ,the 1 hour fleet pass and a few nifty pets .With all these options there is no reason why you can not get one yourself .It's a choice you either listen or you don't . You either get one of the app options increase the security of your account get a few nifty items from it for free or you don't ,it's up to you but getting mad and raging about it especially this is not going to amount to anything BW is not going to get rid of sec keys or apps .that's all i have to say time to get back to work finish this report and go home to play some more

I've bought a game that is out in my country, but security key-chains isn't. Your argument is invalid.
