World of Warcraft (Locutus needs a favour)

Locutus of Borg · 11-19-2004, 02:19 PM

I’m getting World of Warcraft US Version.
Because I don’t want to wait until January to play or even longer to play on US servers. (with my Pals)
The catch is to be able to play it I need a US billing address.

My question is would anybody here be so kind to let the Subscription run on his name?

I would pay by paypal ,bank account or however necessary every time the fee is taken from the person.

Locutas, i have never had a problem before with anyother MMORPG that i have imported from the states, when there is no sight of a euro release.

I would think that blizzard will have the standered pay setup as all others,
therfore it should not be a problem where your cc billing address is.
Just means you have to import the game and play on the yank servers,
till they pull fingers out of butt holes

Taken out of the official localized server FAQ:

Players who do not use a method of payment accepted in North America and who do not have a North American billing address will not be able to play on US servers. Therefore, we highly recommend that players in other regions instead preorder the game for their local region and purchase their World of Warcraft subscription when the game launches locally to them. Doing so will ensure that they have the best possible World of Warcraft gameplay and support experience available.

Couldn't you just buy some time cards?

We'll see.

Umm, Australia isn't in North America

Locutus of Borg · 11-24-2004, 12:15 PM

It's released in australia too.

I wouldn't worry too much right now, at the current rate of things going (week 3 with a 2+ hr wait line) not many of us will be playing that much prior to January. I went around it though and now just idle at the character select screen when not playing. Yes it's rude, but there is no way in hell I'm waiting 3-4 hours like I did last night just to play.

I guess I am lucky then as I have yet to have to wait to play.
