hi everyone - very new here and i am very intrigued by the game ><

was thinking of buying the game at Thailand, could any kind soul tell me whether it is available there and exactly where - if u happen to know?

thanks a million !

I dont think it will be, I think you have to get it in Korea. If it wasnt available for Japan, most likely wont be avialable to Thailand.

Anyways "Sola de ka"
I just said something in Thai my dad taught me lol, my dad school teacher for middle school in thailand. I'm however in america somewhere cold, hehehe.

You can try buying online if you cant find a game package in your local game shops. Some site sell just the cd keys(or account) because you can download the game client from the official website. I dont think there is any restriction on from which country you can play.

Yeah but, he could be playing on American server, and Thailand is on other side of world, he could have serious lag, so it does kind of matter what dist you play.

I'm from singapore and I'm playing on American server. So far I have no serious lag. But it depends on the internet service provider as well.

If you can't locate a Guild Wars box in any of your local stores which sell computer games, you can try and buy a key online. What this will mean though is you will have to d/l the client from the Guild Wars site and enter the key you bought online.

Here's the site to go to if you wish to try and buy a key for the game online & then d/l it off the web:

http://www.plaync.com/store/gw_purchase.html

Just use the bottom link to buy from "PlayNC"

you will need to create a Play NC account to purchase from them.

thanks so much for the nice help from everyone

another side question though - are there various servers like an American server etc for Guild Wars or is it just one server? got kind of confused when someone earlier says Amercian server heh ><

thanks for helping

There are American server, European server and Korean server with multiple districts. But players from any server can meet in International District.

I'm from Malaysia, bought it from Malaysia retailer.

Playing in American server, no lags with 1Mbps connection.

Why couldnt Korea be called Asia instead? I use to think Japan makes all the games, looks like Korea is taking over, LOL. Funny how people dont refer to Russians as Asians. I think there should be update that changes the name of Korean servers to Asian servers.
