Default From Asia, can I play GW ?

Am i correct ? GW is only out for the US and Europe region ? other regions yet to arrive.

is it possible for me to get a copy and play it from my country. I'm staying in Malaysia . somewhere near indonesia , thailand and singapore - just incase some of you dont know..

will GW do an IP scan and only allow players from that specific region to join , or anyone is able to join any server ??

I believe there are actually way more servers than that. It would be more correct to say there are three data centers.

Yes, you can freely choose in which of the three worlds you'd like to play.

You can purchase GW online from NCSoft's store (but you'll just get the key, and no box. You can download the client fomr GW's homepage).

I was only trying to helpfull, and the common knowlege is that there are 3 servers. This is a carry over from games like WoW, but its what people understand.

It costs the same, but in the boxed set you get the manual. You may be able to download the manual online though.

I believe there are copies of GW sold in Malasia. A friend of mine lives there and also plays GW.

I don't believe you will be able to connect to the korean region without a korean CD key. They're like that for some reason, and also require some sort of citizen ID i've heard of, it's odd. You might have to choose between either America or Europe, just like the Australians and South Americans that play. However, whichever region you choose, this won't mean you lag more or less. Regions only decide who you see in your internal districts.

And about downloading the manual, I'm still waiting for someone to scan and upload pictures of the CE artbook
