Star Wars: The Old Republic!

Aah ok..

Many thanks for the responses guys - i'll check it out. :)
 
So how are you lot playing this if it's not available in SA yet? I had the client (was invited to test) but when I tried logging in it said not available in your region. I got cross and deleted the client.

I've since heard of guys playing via a VPN, but not sure 1. That it's Legal and 2. how to do it.

So please share..:confused:

p.s. forgive if it was mentioned earlier in the post - i'm not one for reading a lot..:)

That was an incorrect error message. Once you setup your security question this error messages disappears. Guys from the non red zones were also getting this error message.

I bought the key off mmogamers.co.za. Got it within a few hours, and I copied the client from a guy from this forum. Everything is legal, as all the parties get paid, and you subscribe and connect as you would any other mmo. The physical game is just not for sale in SA as the company probably isn;t comfortable with our latency to their servers, so they didn't want to support it. My theory anyway. Somebody aswell mentioned earlier that they can get the physical gamecards aswell, so it's not that hard to start playing.

They didn't want to overload the servers at launch hence why Australasia,South America,Asia and Eastern Europe weren't supported in the initial launch. Don't think its just latency else the likes of korea and japan,ect would be supported.
 
Yea i tried them also but when i clicked on the swtor link it kept giving me a page unavailable error, and i could'nt wait lol so i baught it from mmogamer :P

pffft, site fail or sold out. Who knows.
 
So what is the chance you bought it cheap somewhere and are in to make a buck on us :erm: :p

Nah i just wanna get rid of it tbh, i baught it from mmogamer the first time and i waited like 6 hours with no reply and all of the sudden the payment was reversed. So i went and baught another copy from g2play.net under the assumption the previous transaction was cancelled, and today i got a msg from m bank saying transaction of R557 went through to mmogamer etc

You're not first person that I've read about that had issues with mmogamer. Btw, I'm just pulling your leg a bit on the other matter ;)

It's official. The South African Hidden Beks Empire guild, Imperial Knights, is up and running.

For an invite whisper Ulvenxai, Arrogance, Ritsuka, Almanti or Daxon. Alternatively, see you on the dark side :D

Doesn't sound dark enough :erm:, more like muppet-gentle-man club :p

/makes note.
 
Will this game become available in SA soon? Like WOW ?

It will eventual becoming available to retailers in SA. But there is no timeframe for Africa,South America,Eastern Europe and Asian currently. Aus and NZ is next on the list for 1st quarter , probably march.

You can wait if you want but game is available to play for SA, just not purchase via SA retailers.
