So how many people cant get this things to work? Me? I've already uninstalled the game. Can't even get the game to run or log in. Wasted two days downloading this crap. I have other games to play this weekend.

What are the issues most of you guys are having?

You pay RM25 for 1 month game time, RM220 (retail pack/life time) divide RM25 (1 month) = You only play for 8months+ if you go prepaid line, compare with RM220 life time, which better? You do the calculations. smile.gif

Realistically though, how long do you think these people will continue to play SC2? I mean people willing to spend RM250 to buy the game at launch are probably the games biggest players and the ones most likely to stick to it for more than a year. Casuals and people not familiar with SC2 do you think they will stay long with a game with no leveling progression like an MMO? Of course an expansion will bring them back but then there is the whole complication of how will the prepaid stuff work once there is more than one game.

Heck even the people who bought the game I doubt they will continue to play the game longer than a year.

i think the culture of Malaysia on buying ori video games is screw up. I will admit i ahem the hell out of a lot of video games when i was young. I never knew that video games was so exp until i found lowyat, and why is it wong. My parents will RAPE me if they found out the i spent RM230 on a f***ing video games. In their eye video games are cheap and stupid. Most of my friends are dotard who all using G to play their dota. They seem to be upsad with me buying a warcraft3 battle chest and say that i was wasting my money. I ask them den why do you guys buy original music album when they chould just ahem it off d web. They say they want to support the singer. So i ask them why they cant do it for video games, they answer its only game mah!!! I faceplam

Most PC games don't cost RM230. It's more affordable than you think actually. With DD and all that, do I need to say more. Plus there are legit games you can get for free on the PC. The PC is an open platform and will stay that way.

PS : In Malaysia console games costs quite a bit more. And they say PC gaming is expensive. lol... I think you of all people realise this...don't you?
