Ok

here goes

I am an avid daoc player as im sure many others are...

I have a right to be able to play a game that i want badly which is catacombs on the release date.

So ive pre orded a copy from play.com

if i do not recieve the game before friday from play.com i wanted to have a back up plan..

So my back up plan is this...

Im currently downloading the full cata client from the US servers. its 2 gig but its worth it and itll be done way before friday lol :p

My plan was to buy a copy from a company (which i havent looked into) in EU somewhere on thurday and ask them to give me the CD key before they send it so that i can use the cata client im downloading atm and just use the EU cd key to activate it.

Ofc ill need to edit a file to be switch it to EU client.

My question is this :

if i cant find an EU company on Thursday to use, Can i buy a copy from the US and use that CD key for when its released in the UK to play on the EU servers?

would greatly appreciate a speedie answer! :)

thanks

As the licensing is held by two different companies (in this case Mythic and Goa) you can not use a US CD key to activate an account on the European servers.
