EPTI simlply wouldn't play, but normally I'll be able to play English
and n/o to other language, but this game is designed in English, so the only decent language to play it in is English.

Europe [enGB] - https://eu.battle.net/account/management/sc2/pre-download.html?gameRegion=EU&lang=en-GB&platform=win North America [enUS] - https://us.battle.net/account/management/sc2/pre-download.html?gameRegion=NA&lang=en-US&platform=win Australia/New Zealand/Southeast Asia [enSG] - https://sea.battle.net/account/management/sc2/pre-download.html?gameRegion=SE&lang=en-SG&platform=win If you're in a region without a native English client, Latin America, Russia, Korea, or Taiwan, and you wish to play in English... no one knows for sure exactly what to do. Most likely a solution will be found (quickly) to use another region's English client in your region. I, Girlscoutcookie and not blue or any official source, would recommend downloading the enUS release, and the release for your region. You may not need both (hopefully we can get you playing with only the enUS copy), but it's possible you may need a valid client for your region to activate. No one knows yet. If you're not in a hurry, just wait a day. The first thing I'll be doing before I start playing is figuring out a solution to this question. | ||

but anyway I just wanted to say that if you change your country in you b.net account inormation then you'll be able to download different client versions, in fact i'm in the middle of downloading the en_US client. so you could just do that and figure out later the payment method you'll use. | ||

I thought there was a file with the server address, this could be totally wrong tho. There was for WoW and Beta, however I'm looking through my client right now and cannot find the realmlist.stf that was in the beta client under support. Could probably just create one, however I don't know the address for the US server 100%. | ||

these people should not have to go out of their way to play a game in the original language or be denied to play in a language that is obviously available but 'region locked'. but i guess its what they have to do... | ||

Merging the locale files (as in my earlier step by step) and changing the ProductLocale.txt in Base.SC2Data both result in a successful connection, but an error about needing an authorized language pack to play in that language. I am currently looking into merging the enGB data into the zhTW datafiles. | ||
