Same her in germany - the most common payment method is the ELV:

you give the company your account data and the permission to withdraw a certain ammount to their accounts.

yeah, that's the usual way to pay for stuff here too, but almost all cards are also connected to a credit account like VISA or AmEx

aye. dutcholand has the highest broadbandconnection density, but the lowest cc density (in europe).
thats why the gametime cards is quite a good idea. altough they couldve just used the protocol Pext just said (works here in dutcholand too). would be alot easier than having to go to the store every month

Your lousy BB skills nonwithstanding, Guild Wars is definitely the better looking game. BTW, why aren't you partaking in the Beta Event merriment ewe hobo??

my bb skills rock. the board shouldnt deceive me like that, saying html is allowed only to block it out :E

and im not cause.. uh. i havent thought about it and prolly cause itll take up my whole weekend, resulting in some words with the missus? :D
nah. thats not true. if i had the game i could play whenever i want, but just a weekend feels so rushed and forced et al :o

I guess so. Hope you'll join us when the game's released.

Pext, I had a look at those screenshots, it's not a bad looking game at all. To be honest, if it weren't for Guild Wars, I'd probably be playing WoW =/

You need a beta key to play in the Beta Weekends. You can get that by pre-ordering the game, or from various online sites which are giving out keys in contests and whatnot. Once the game is released, you just have to pay for the game itself but there will be no monthly fees.

its the monthly fee that drives me away from any MMORPG. that and itemhogging and pvp-foghats.. ;laying the game like its an ffa :A

guildwars seems most refreshing :icon14:

My PC exactly meets the (Blizzard's) minimum requirements to play WoW.
I guess that means it's not worth trying it, right? Just checking.

(I'm pretty sure I shouldn't even start playing WoW because I'll either become addicted or drop it after a week, but everything I hear about it sounds amazing.)

Edit: BTW I probably passed my law exam today, yay. :icon25: :icon25: :icon25:

Ran pretty well when i had a shitty old graphics card in my new PC... Now i've got my x800pro in there, its just not worth thinking about :P

Eh, get it, play it for your free (heh) month, if you dont like it, dont subscribe...

:smirk:

i guess there will possibly be options for international gaming in about half a year. blizzard allready made some statements in this direction - not explicetely though.

the reason for the separation is buisiness stuff i think. if you force all europe players that would have allready joined the us version if possible to wait for the european release, the game makes more of an impact here: sales++.

[edit]huh... i think the grammar is really messed up the in the phrase above...

Guild Wars sucks so bad...

It sucked in the older betas and Doomer told me the last beta sucked even more.

Its nothing like WoW tho, 2 completely diff games, GW is just shit.
