BTW DIgital Copy already available. And the price is SG$109 which will make it 250 + since SG dollar stronger than Malaysian Ringgit. So those hpoing to get cheaper digitally, forget it. https://us.battle.net/account/management/get-a-game.htmlThis post has been edited by frags: Jul 28 2010, 02:21 AM

QUOTE(yimingwuzere @ Jul 28 2010, 01:54 PM) There's a big fracas about this in singapore when they announced the pricing. Blizzard's reason - server bandwidth costs, server costs blablabla My take - IAHGames greedy, Activision CEO greedy, nothing to do with bandwidth or servers (EA charges less for BFBC2 here yet includes dedicated servers) If they were charging USD$77 to Americans, you can expect a huge uproar over there. People will be writing about it and you'll get a million online petitions. But tiny little SEA, no one gives a damn, or maybe people here don't give a damn themselves.

If I'm not mistaken there is an offline mode built in to the system. Correct me if I'm wrong. This post has been edited by frags: Jul 28 2010, 02:08 PM

QUOTE(-ZeN- @ Jul 28 2010, 02:11 PM) Got offline mode, but u still need to login 1st. Yeah but it should work like steam...ie once you log in once and turn to offline, do you need to login back the next time you start the game?

QUOTE(Kidicarus @ Jul 28 2010, 02:18 PM) I think the people do care, it's either that people don't know or it's the fanboi apologists who're making it seem like it's ok to pay RM250 or USD17 more than the americans. It's almost as if they're making us pay Ozzie prices  Added on July 28, 2010, 2:19 pmI thought offline mode was offline but that you had to log back in every 30 days or something like that (unverified - picked up from somewhere on official forums) Well too late now. It's perhaps the best selling game here. Should have had a stronger voice before launch. Was there any initiative at all to protest the pricing decision directly to Blizzard? I guess not, or else I would have heard about it.

QUOTE(fujkenasai @ Jul 28 2010, 04:19 PM) Why not get US version then? I was getting it till they announced that we can play on US Naah, and get stuck with the region lock and using proxy? Not worth the hassle.

QUOTE(Kidicarus @ Jul 28 2010, 04:30 PM) and hang on i thought it was the keys that are region locked, not the game itself. Well, the whole region issue thing is pretty much killed by Blizzard since you will need to logon to your region Battle.net. Buying US version also gets you a US key, which I highly doubt you can register in sea.battlenet.

QUOTE(Kidicarus @ Jul 28 2010, 04:39 PM) I know that's not the case because my battle.net account is originally an EU account with an EU WOW profile. I can manage my SEA SC2 account and EU Wow account through the same login. In fact, It's quite easy to change regional settings once you have logged onto battle.net. I think it's dependent on the game ie you can have multiple region games on your one Battle.net account. Still you buy US version you cannot login to sea.battlenet for SC2. SEA region SC2 login to sea.battlenet for SC2. Has anyone with a US version been able to logon to the SEA servers? PS : Like in your case, you will logon to EU server for WoW and SEA servers for SC2.
