Dokhou
Ok so virgin does not have it yet, the guy said they placed an order, could arrive today, tomorow, day after.. who knows
Opeth
I think 80$ for it is a bit over the top though, God I hate virgin.

LooooL Dokhou, to be honest, sometimes I feel like Virgin's employees have no idea what they are selling. Maybe tomorrow I'll pass by and check.
Opeth, pcandparts is selling the Key for 65$, 15$ extra for an original DVD is fine. However, on Amazon the standard edition is selling for 60$ which is 20$ difference. Let's see how much will they sell it for.

So I called Virgin today to ask if they have it. They told me that they will in 1 week. I hope it'll take less, because seeing all my foreign friends playing and talking about it is killing me. Can't buy it online either because the internet sucks.
Dokhou
Hey so i kinda got to the bottom of it with Virgin, there system is obviously crap but whatever, once they place a order, they have no idea when it will arrive, they are given a 10 day window. so when the employee says "net week", tomorrow, in 3 days, hes basically talking out of his ass because he as well does not know, basically he is saying anything so you go away. (good thing is that it is coming, that is confirmed)
Best thing to do is call Virgin and ask them to notify you when the game arrives, you can leave Your phone number and name and they will call you when they get it.
Opeth
I really really hope supplies last, since I don't have 80$ on me atm xD

Odd question, but when it comes to regions, is Lebanon lumped in with EU or US? Just to make sure there aren't any connectivity issues, not to mention CC acceptability.

Good point, if we can't choose servers ourselves we should be lumped in with EU.

It's just a tad unclear. Take a look at this.

It's clear that the limitations isn't on who you connect to (thankfully), but where you connect from. But the second post mentions that NA is the default. To me that leaves Lebanon (as always) in the grey area.
Opeth
All we can do is hope virgin get the EU copy of the game, besides I play Aion on NA servers and latency is decent even with my horrible horrible internet connection.

Hmm interesting... didn't know that, and it sure does explain some things that have happened in the past with asking about games. Anyway, I did leave my phone number and name, I'll be sure to post here when they call.

As far as I know, the only game that has different servers for different regions is WoW. You can never move one account from one region to another. RIFT, SWTOR and a lot of other MMOs gives you the ability to roll on any server you wish for. So I think GW2 is the same.
Midnight
Agreed Badieh. I also got a form of confirmation. A friend got a US code, and created an account here in Leb. In the process, he was asked "Are you sure you want to select a world that isn't in your current region?" when he was selecting his home world as an EU one. They just asked. Ultimately, regions won't be a hindrance.

hey guys, did anyone download the game client online ? i really dont care about the box and would rather buy a serial number online... would appreciate it if someone did so i can copy it from him!
Sawyers
If i can really download the game client from a trusted site i would share it with u guys.. Too bad they are sold out in the official site.. Or at least that's what they said.. Cause i read about it and there was a reason why they stopped selling a digital version (which i really didn't). Anyway, if u guys find me a decent site for downloading the game client i would gladly share it with all of who's interested.
Sawyers
Correction: (which i really didn't get)***

In case no one bought it yet, Nino will have it by the end of the week.. Better by the end of the week than never :p

Hahaha that's good news, but did he tell you how much will it cost?
Sawyers
Ya he did, he wasn't that sure but the base price is 70$ so that means it's either a couple of dollars more or less, but atleast the budget is around 70$ not much more or not much less.
