Now for FAQ

Where can I pre-order the game
Officially this game only available for US and Europe only, so there will be no officially available in our local store. HOWEVER there are few option you can buy it from.
- Offgamers.com (Only in Digital form, you have to download the whole game via Origins, offgamers also give away early access codes)
- Play-Asia.com (Located in HK, Physical copy only, no early access code) Also available Collector Edition (but no pricing yet)
- Amazon.com (Not recomended unless you are getting Collector Edition), the total amount physical copy of the game (standard)+ shipping to Malaysia + early access code = around RM300
I DO NOT recomended other than these method as these method 100% tested in our community and it work. VPN/Proxy allow you to see and buy the game via Origins but your local credit card wont work.
However our local store Gamers Hideout at PJ will get the stock after the release date, they currently cannot confirm if the game can arrive on launch date or not.

What server that most of our local player play?
At this point we assume Keetael was our primary selected server. Tested during beta and it works fine.

When does the game release and when can I join the early access I get from my pre-order?
the game release on 20th December 2011 - US time (should be somewhere early morning in 21th Dec in our local time). Early access allow you to play as early as 15th Dec, however this entirely depend on how early you pre-order the game, you will get the notification via email.

Is there a local community or guild that we local player can join?
Yeap, we are at facebook, as for guild some of the community member already make guild, we will mainly separate 2 guild (1 light side and 1 dark side). Come in to the facebook for update

For question 4, I feel there is a great chance they wont IP block, there is chance they might block but lower, seeing how EA and Bioware operate, is unlikely to be block.

The official website I can set my account-country to Malaysia.

If anything goes ill, just use VPN or proxy. Reload card wont be much trouble as can get almost anywhere on digital store like offgamers.

As much as i dont like this out of region debacle, will it ever officially launch in Malaysia? And the region block thing is just that, limited launch.

while they say that "currently" they have no plans on ip or CC blocking i dont think they will do that, not if they want to compete with Activision/Blizzard. Also theyve said that the game is universal, meaning you can play on EU if you bought NA version and vice versa. in other words, it is safe to import the game even if they decide to make an oceanic server later on. Also posted that they receive all major credit cards even if theyre not in the launch regions, im guessing that includes our visa cards. no account support is understandable. i dunno about you guys but 4 years without account support with blizzard and i was fine. monthly sub they say will be on par with other games, im guessing will also be the same as WOW's model.

I for one wont be preordering the game from amazon unless its done in bulk, hoping for some of our local game retailers to bring them in. How they handled this thing kinda sucks (very little official communication) but here's hoping the game can make up for it.

you said probably true, now the 1 thing i dont understand is why there is still no launch date? Bioware can annouced ME3 which launch next year and not SW:TOR which launch this year?

This make me assume that Bioware still actually planning worldwide release and need time to organize their resources. So they dont actually know when they can complete. Well that just my assumption.

itd be great if they're witholding their launch dates just to gauge international demands but i doubt it at this point.. theyre probably just gonna announce the date close to launch so other competitors will be hard pressed to come up with a counter strategy (diablo 3 beta or maybe a new wow patch?). thats the conspiracy theorist in me speaking smile.gif

Can someone who has pre-ordered tell me about the experience of pre-ordering it? (eg: where and how did you buy it, how fast did you get the code)
