Whoever was able to successfully validate his digital download client with his box cd-key please let us know. I know this has been covered in many topics already but I just want to be 100% sure that Im good to go with the installer siting on my hdd for the last few days and a boxed cd-key. I know im not the only one wanting to have this confirmed.

if I download the digital copy, but go to midnight release, can I use the physical key I get in the box to activate the download from the digital version?

that way I can install it ahead oof time and activate it when I get home.

Any ideas?

I also want to know this. Unless they put some kind of hash mark on the downloaded installer I don't see any reason why we won't be able to add the box cd-key and install the game from our pre-downloaded version on our HDD.

"Yes, both game client types (digital and physical) possess unique game activation methods.

If a player purchases the digital game client, the player will not receive a copy of the game activation key. Instead, the StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty game license will be added to the purchasing Battle.net account automatically. This is how World of Warcraft digital game clients function, as well.

If a player purchases the physical game client, the player will need to manually add the game activation key included in the boxed set to his or her Battle.net account. By adding the game activation key, the StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty game license will be added to the Battle.net account."


That doesnt answer the question (I don't think) Can we use the downloaded client, once we get the cdkey and add it to our bnet profiles?

Yes. Obviously the blues are being vague about this because they want to save bandwidth.

My digital download is there at 99% right now and is only uploading. I dont know whats the delay and why isnt it going 100%......this is extremely frustrating and scary at the same time.

you just have to make sure that your digital download and your physical copy are from the same region. you can't use a us cd key you got from the store with your eu digital download. this shouldn't really be a problem for 99% of people.

Any word yet on the pricing? Is it exactly the same as the boxed version and blizzard just makes more profit?

I've looked through this thread several times and haven't seen any response to this.

Okay so, just to be sure.

I finish the download online, I buy my box tomorrow, bring it home, put in the CD key, and play?

Like many others, I really want to know the price for the digital download. Also, does anyone know if the North American SC2 will come with guest pass? and how many?
no way

Does anyone remember what the file was called to change the realmlist? like the one in beta.

Looking through my KR client, in the Support folder there is no realmlist.stf, humm.
