Hello,

Seeing as how blizzard was so KIND to split us into our own region which probably will starve as WoW... I'm still keeping my Amazon preorder for the US Collector's, but i'm not sure, what are most of LA players going to do?

Cheers!

EDIT: Adding more comments and blue post mentioning server split.

I want to add that to play in the LA region you can only play in spanish or portuguese, with probably some awful translations...

Bueno, primero que nada.. ¡bienvenido! En efecto, como lo dice la página de descarga del juego, Latinoamérica tendrá su propia región y estará separada de la región de Estados Unidos.

Lo que esto significa es que si compras la versión de Estados Unidos (en inglés), sólo podrás jugar con quienes hayan comprado dicha versión; por el contrario, si compras la versión de Latinoamérica (en español o portugués), podrás jugar con quienes hayan comprado esta versión.


From Luumht, LA Region blue. Same guy from WoW boards..

EDIT: Sorry, forgot about our Brazilian friends, it basically says yes, US and LA will be split, not like in WoW.

dammit... what to do now.

I really appreciate the fact of Blizzard putting down a server here, and I would like to play on it. But on the other side the servers might have few players... shit.

Crossrealm now Blizzard.

Edit: I speak spanish and even if I didnt its pretty easy to figure out what the text was saying :D

Well, it's funny, they say latency is going to be better, they will probably put the servers in mexico, like with wow, where its actually WAY worse for south americans than US. Because our packets go to US the back to mexico, LOL.

So, latency in LA region is probably going to be worse than on the US server.

Resuming, i'd appreciate it if they put the servers somewhere in the middle of the continent, instead of 2 inches below the US.

i would too, i'd still probably buy both, but i think all south american and most central america have good latency to brasil...

I got 40-80ms on most game servers. way better than 250-300 to mexico

LOL, the Blizzard mods are telling people to play on the US realm now, given that 80% of the posts are about people wanting to play in English... I sense uber fail for this Region.

there isn't a separate battle.net site for Latin America is there? Looking at the other pages it seems there are sites for US, EU, Korea, Taiwan, SEAsia, China ... although there are more 'regions' you can choose from when purchasing Latin America and Russia.

Yes I'm sure they will split us in two different regions, you can see it by downloading the digital version from battle net http://beta-us.battle.net/sc2/es/

However I choose the US version

I think that with the builtin imput lag of .25s we saw in beta, you wouldnt feel any diference playing on a server 40ms or 200ms away from you anyway, unless blizzard have made the worst netcode ever made in the History.

btw I will initially to buy the north american version, and later if blizz really dont add a crossrealm feature, i shall to buy extra copies to play in the european and/or the korean servers.

I was thinking about playing in LA if it was possible to do so with the English client. Since Blizzard decided to force us to choose between that and the translated version, I had to choose US. All my friends are doing the same. It's a shame tough, specially with the announcement of the Brazilian office. I wish they reconsider that decision and just let us choose the language we want to play the game.

Getting US definitely, maybe buying one month of game time on the LA server to see how it looks
