When I was adding SC1, WC3 and WoW to my battle.net account I could alsways choose the language version like en-us or en-uk. I used german keys. Once you enter it, you can't change it anymore though.

well i havent preordered @ amazon :/

i did @ gamestop, and i won't cancel it because gamestop wants a 5€ pre order fee. It isnt that much money, but it is money.

And i won't need 2 games, because im the only player and none of my friends will play sc2 or already have preordered too...

I've checked preorder option in amazon.com and beta promotion is available for Europe. All you pay over is shipment fee and in 5 work days you get a key.

the problem with the german version is that its cut for getting a 12 rating and i dont like playing a crippled game
i wonder if you can download the en client and play it uncut after buying the german version for i would play it in english language somehow or other

Sure that works with any other blizzard game, why wouldn't it with SC2.

i know about steam that even if you buy the us version for lets say team fortress 2 you still can only download the cut version, for it recognizes your ip
now i dont know how blizzard handles this
not that i need more gore or something, i just want to play the original game, as it was intended

Are you sure they'll cut it for a 12+ rating? Why should they? I think it simply ended up there after review.
I mean, God of War 3 released uncut in Germany. Hard to believe, huh? So I see no reason to cut that bit of gore in SCII just for a rating.

dont worry, you can decide yourself which language it should be in when you register the key. Done it with brood war and warcraft 3.

Ok, you can pick the language, but wouldn't it be illegal for them to get an age 12 rating for a cut version and then distribute an uncut version without any age check whatsoever? I don't think it'll be that easy. And afaik neither Broodwar nor Wacraft 3 were cut in Germany(?).

Edit: It seems like an uncut version and the collectors edition will be available to german folks here:

Well bpjm or whatever they are called now is just a bunch of retards, I really can't imagine they are smart enough to check that sort of stuff...
Thanks for the link though..... mmmmh I might still buy it on amazon though to get another key->give it to a friend to get him into SC2

P.S. if you are worried then I guess you could just open up a british battle.net account and register your key from there.
