but its written coming soon?

yea but it launch already the package you can get in the store today the server will official launch on the janury 07

lol, why am i thinking to myself that there won't be any local servers. at the most, just servers for SEA located in the US like the oceanic ones.

can anyone list the details like..
1.package price?
2.server location ? (most important)
3. Game card price?
4. alternative payment methods.
5. how about availabilty of TBC? will it be available at the same time as the global launch?

I don't think the prices of the game and gamecard will change...:-(

its not a server launch..its just announcing the official distributor....even Oceania doesnt get oceanic servers..

no way malaysia/sg will get thier own servers

see TheStar In-Tech for more information ^^

see TheStar In-Tech for more information ^^

Read this, froz3nnoob.
Do not misunderstand the advertisement on Star InTech.

your nick says it all.

n00b.

lol.

oh ok ^^ (DAM ANGRY!)

so if Asiasoft is distributing, does this mean we can buy for a cheaper price? and can we still play on US servers?

most likely its still on US servers, well it might be cheaper, but probably not much. im still hoping that the price will go below 100 bucks for game cards though.

yea it kind of expensive for the game kind x 2 ro card half of wow game card ><" if the game card price the same it not a prblem i think i wish they package price drop down like TW cd RM12 wow that going to be great

omg...pls dont tell me you are comparing WOW with RO??? Thank god wow is expensive..keeps noobs like you out

now now play nice

QFT!!!

i have to fkin second that man
LOL COMPARING WOW AND RO WTFUX0r!

is like kancil vs bmw
and dream on to have rm12 wow

This man speaks the truth.

This is really a bad news.
As we know, all asiasoft titles are freakingly expensive for most malaysian.

hey dude did i compare the game quality with wow ?? did i ????????????? =.=" you guys really a flamer ~_________~ ' i just compare the price maybe u guys doesn't know how to count wanna me teach you ? 1 = 1 2 =2 2+2 = 4 5+3 = 8 ok ? dont know ? ok go the toilet put a shit there and count how many roll you made everyday and u will realise you math improve ^^

how much is the fees for taiwan wow and the cd?

cd is think is rm12 the fee is the same but got 1 month payment not like international 2 month one

taiwan version cd rm12 only? == got mer ?

and oh yeah, US version also got payment method for 1 month eh ...

credit card~~~~
for those people who hopes WoW monthly payment will drop to RO standard, dream on.

yups credit card only, so usually go for 6 months for the savings

One fast question, can I use Ambank debit MasterCard to activate the trial account?

pretty sure can because mastercard is international anyways.

Anyone got Asiasoft's contact number?

Need to get information frm them

debit card....im not sure how it works, but you can always email WoW support to clarify.

I seriously couldnt find my old star paper or getting my hand on Asiasoft's contact

Any kind soul can give some help on this?

asiasoft contact i dont think so but in the new paper it say you can get more info at playpark information hahah

playpark web site got no bloody info at all

I will join Asiasoft one if they really open a server here because i can't even play the International one Too lag for me XD !

so on 16th january, where I can get TBC? since Asiasoft is distrubting.. there should be places i could get TBC when launch rite?

Asiasoft hasn't said much other than saying that they'll be the sole distributor of south east asia. There are two things that might happen :

1. They will delay their product distributions due to the lack of info giving out.
2. They will definately advertise their official distribution ( they would definately want to make themselves well known among their buyers so yeah, you might see some advertisment before Jan. 16.

Eh seriously i dont think Asiasoft is going to open a new SEA server. From what i read in the newspaper ads (dont flame if im wrong) i only see they are the OFFICIAL DISTRIBUTORS of WoW from Blizz. Meaning they get their goods straight from Blizz instead of another middle-man like most shops atm.

As an effect, maybe prices starter pack and monthly cards are cheaper because they cut out the middleman but i think also if cheap cant be alot difference.

As for the rumoured SEA server, imo it can happen by a veyr very long shot. We just dont have the population for it. We are talking abt one of the best and most played MMORPG in the world. A SEA server just doenst have a good profitable prospect imo.

However if someone can prove me wrong, please explain. Include SS of the so called ads or something. Dont just go "i heard from so and so"..Rumours of SEA servers have strectched far back from the launching of WoW so i wouldnt bet on it.

Taiwan WOW CD not free meh?
i can DL frm their web
juz nid pay monthly fee only

Maybe you guys can visit AsiaSoft forums for more info:

http://forums.asiasoft.net/thread.asp?qid=1044620

That's a GREAT relief!

Look at those players whinge about the prices and latencies on those forums.

It will make it easier to get copies of WOW but thats about it - if you have any experience with gaming software "support" Malaysian style, you know how it works i.e. suck.

No malaysian server. No singapore server either. Probably no Australian server either. Dont see that happening anytime soon, so we gotta bear with 400-500ms latency if you want WOW.

Went to the asiasoft forums...my god..what a huge bunch of crybaby whiners...

"too ex", "RO cheaper", "latency bad" thank god there isnt a malaysian server..i would probbaly go mad playing with malaysians

sien la.. im still pondering how to get TBC from Asiasoft.. totally no clue..registered forum but cant access.. wierd

You need to create a forum login and password for the wow forum....its a really dumb system

Right now, asiasoft's operation look so ah pia i have no confidence that they even ordered any copies of BC or will have any.

Psst.. buy from Singapore online game retailer. simple, easy, accept paypal, just across the causeway. I pre-ordered one back in October - they have kept me updated on the changing status of expected stock arrival. Very professional.

one example

how much in total u paid on that?

mis-info for this crappy wow server...
btw wat is so brag bout this crappy server...
even tho, there is... "so wat...???"
no way asia gonna hav the server...
hopefully no no at all...

i wont be rolling a new toon even if asiasoft decided to have a server either in my or sg. imagine the torrent of local bengs begging for gold or engaging in petty insults usually with your mother involved.

no way man. i'll stay oceanic.

Pre-ordered so they only charge when they ship.

I estimate (retail cost 74.90 + standard shipping 6.40) * exchange rate 2.3 = approx. RM 186.99

i preordered mine at 139.90

where do u pre-order?

you can pre-order BC from offgamers.com, which is a malaysian company.

They usually sell only the cdkey but you can request for the box set and pick it up from their office in KL.

Me too, I'd stay oceanic any day.

you know whats weird? even though oz/nz are nearer to us...I doubt their latency will be better cause most of the bandwidth focus is towards the USA...correct me if I'm wrong

umm.. the server still located at the US.. any reason for us to sign up at that playpark warcraft thingy ?

Just think of them as a online store that sell WoW and GameCard.

But theoritically, we would be getting lower pings, if there was a server in Australia cause they're nearer.

All servers are based in the US. There are no servers in Australia.

aussies are playing with the smoothness of a baby's behind... reason? their connection doesn't go through asian lines... they connect to the US directly

... if you can wait .. in 2008 we will have our own backbone of sea-us-line 1.75 terabit

Any proof for this?

... yea its been announced 2 days before the earthquake strike

huhu nice find..
but i doubt they will make in time with our current tmNUT..

jz cross our fingers and hope...period..

Tm"Nut" will be taken over by Telekom Malaysia and the new ceo will be the one in the blog.

lawl.... so i think possibility is quite high for us to get that line since they already sign the agreement.

Anybody know where's asiasoft office in KL?

thought there's none in KL? only in singapore?

yeah they have one in KL i believe, coz they hiring local salesperson to distribute their cards around

call their Singapore office number then. they should know.
