I was really interested in buy the game too. One question. How are you intending to pay for the game. Do you know if you can use a debit card instead of a credit card? Also, do you know where to buy game cards, because i cant seem to find them in the UK. (sorry this is irrelevant to your primary question)

Thats fine. Well, I know in America you can buy these like....Fake Credit cards that you can put so much money on and use it LIKE a credit card, but onces all the monies gone you have to go get another. I'm not sure if they have those for the UK. FOr the Game Card, you can usualy find them in any game store that sells the game. EB Games has them I know that. But they shouldn't be to hard to find.

Thanks for replyin. Im findin it really hard to find a game card. I can only find them in america, and they either dont ship to the UK or they are really expensive. im really eager to get the game and start playin, but all i need is a game card, coz i dont want to use a credit card. Can you use a debit card to pay?

Hmmm Im not sure, I'll chekc for you though, I got the game installed and I can just go through the registartion to see what they accept. I'll be a moment. (sorry this was so slow, I was taking a shower)

Well These are what they accept: Credit Card
Global Collect (Non-US Currencies)
Game Card

I'm not sure what Global Collect is though. I don't see a debit card soo I dont think it would work.

No problemo, anythign to help. SOrry to hear that, just keep lookin for those game cards, they should show up somewhere.

About your question though, i read somewhere that you may be able to use a joystick to play. I read it somewhere, so im not quite sure exaclty what it said, but it was either, YES you could use it, or maybe they will allow you to use one. Sorry i cant be of more help though.

Oh, thats great! Thank you, I'll probably buy a Joy-stick anyway beacuse I have a few flight games that might be fun with it anyway.

Do you know of any good retailers that may sell these game cards and whom ship to the UK?
#12 Jun 18 2005 at 12:05 PM Rating: Decent
I'm not 100% possotive, by my best guess would be EB Games.

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/238459.asp <--- the site for the Game Card. I'm not sure if they do, but they might.

There should be software that came with your joystick, you can configure it with that. Also I think you have to select which profile (of the joystick) to use as you can have different ones for different games. At least that's how it is with mine, I have a Saitek Cyborg Evo.

I think there is an option in the options screen to enable a joystick. I seem to remember having to do that when I got JTL. Just open your options screen, both on the ground and in space, there might be different ones, and look at all the settings until you find it. Sorry I don't remember where exactly.

yes you can use a joystick for JTL, but it comes down to a matter of taste, some prefer joysticks, some prefer the mouse.

Check you have your joystick installed. (control panel / game devices)

If your joystick is installed on your computer, you need to enable it in launchpad click the settings/options tab you will find it.

If it still dont work check the options tab (crtl + O) and check your controls.
