Hi all

It’s me again.

I have just been playing WOW from the PH, on euro servers, my only problem is how do I pay for the monthly, or even get the cards that allows me to play when ever I want from the PH?.

I had the ten day trail, now it’s run out, I don’t have a credit card so therefor unable to purchase online, is there anywhere within the PH (near Antipolo City, Rizal) where I can pay for the monthly?

I play on the Euro servers to be with my son in the UK, in the game.

The connection isn’t good (2Mbpa Planet Cable) but it is playable, some times the connection is in the green, but most of the time it is red, so I am unable to participate in PvP, due to the slow connection, but playing with my son in his guild is good enough for me.

Can anyone help?

Yo love your blog, found it while randomly surving, will keep checking up. Bye…

any filipino guilds on europe server? please let me know which realm. i want to transfer my 4 lvl80) characters from shattered halls(dead realm) :o.

arrrrrgh sawan-sawa na ako sa trial account ng wow gusto ko nang mag pa upgrade sa 60 days game card pero di ko magawa ayaw din nmng maka connect sa private servers!!!!

meron nang wow d2 sa pinas kaya wag na kayung malungkot ^^
hawak sya ng “my games” search nyu na lang dun ^^

WoW d2 sa pinas? d kayang bilin un

busy pa daw sa pangungurakot

d mapapansin ng pinoy ung WoW

mas mahal nila ung DotA

To those who can’t play WOW in the Philippines but bought the full game all you have to do is check your realm list to coincide with the realm list of which ever country/server you want to play on.

At tanong para sa lahat ng pinoy na sabik nang mag WOW d2 sa pinas, may new ba kayo kung kelan or at least kung may plano na bang makaroon ng WOW d2? WOW is already 5 years old and its still not here. What’s taking them so damn long!?

why can’t I play wow in the Philippines, I purchased the full game in the UK, and now im here in the Philippines, there is no local server, this stinks.

saan ba may bilihan ng wow 60 day game time dito sa philippines?

8.99 pounds ang bayad dito sa eu every month, tatlo klase ng subscriptions, monthly, 3 months, and 6 months. sa 6 months about 7 pounds na lang ang bayad.ive only seen one pinoy gamer here in london(namely palaboy)kung sino ka man sali ka sa guild ko, IcE, ako si hetneo, stormrage server.ive been playing for 8 days now, currently level24 night elf warrior.if ever na lalabas ang WoW sa Pinas, posible ba kong makapaglaro sa phil server?

i don’t think blizzard will change the subscription amount of $15.

“Siyempre, alam naman nila na hindi kakayanin ng isang normal gamer ang ganyang klaseng mga prices.”

so if blizzard knows that a normal gamer can’t
afford that price in that certain country, why
would they take the risk on having their product
be sold on a lower price? a price which they
mainly profit from.
it’s like buying a house for a million dollars and
selling it for half the price u bought it for.
who gains from it?

For those ininformed, WOW is not hard on the system it can run with a p3 processor and a 5 series geforce thats technology 4 yrs ago…

As for the price 15usd right now [45.comething] php exchange rate]is around 700-800 just double a ragnaroks subscription rate but multiply the fun by 10x

The reason why blizzard doesnt allow local hosting in the country isnt about the cost. Its about the quality of service

Give me 1 mmo company that has a strong stance against cheating/botting/php-ing [cashing in] and all those hullabaloos that enables a player to take advantage of in game economy to their favor.. level-up? hell no.. mobious? nope.. amdg? maybe.. but we’ll see that when L2 gets on p2p .. point is none.

Blizzard doesnt want their game to be turned to crap due to poor facilitation that would result their company having a bad image amongst local gamers.

thx for your read

I live in Manila, and my brothers and I play WoW for FREE! We’ve been playing for several months now, and it’s fun.

Join us at http://wow.anirena.com/forums/index.php

Hope you can join us. It’s FREE. The server is stable. The GMs/admins really help with issues/bugs. Rates are high. We’re recruiting more members in our ally guild – Lords of Alliance (Skuld server). We’d like to see more fellow pinoys join as well!

I’ve been looking for an official wow Philippine server for years now. still no luck :P, It would have been easier if int’l credit cards are as popular here as they are in other countries.

WoW is $30.00 for 60 days (2 months), so about $15 per month. Not that expensive, but I can see how it would be if converted to Peso; giving how much a Filipino person makes.

san store? mega mall ba mayroon ng WOW installer n nabibili? if mayroon pls tell me..pls..plssss…..reply…

hi …pipol can u tell me where to buy WOW here in the philippines….plssssss

I wana know where to buy the Burning Crusade in Philippines because Datablitz is out of stock……

i play in arthas

This is the news that I found so far on the status of W.O.W being released here in RP. It’s up to you if you’ll be in despair or find new hope when you read the date. As for me, it’s new hope.^_^

‘World of Warcraft’ to launch in RP soon

INQ7.net

THE MUCH anticipated online game “World of Warcraft” will be brought to the Philippines soon, officials of an exclusive licensee of Vivendi Universal Games in the Philippines told INQ7.net on Thursday.

“We’re working on bringing this game to the Philippines. However, we’re currently focusing on promoting and marketing it because Vivendi has yet to assign the game to a local partner,” said Gerry Castro, vice president for marketing and operations of the Asian Media Development Group (AMDG).

AMDG is currently the exclusive distributor of Vivendi Universal games in the Philippines. The World of Warcraft is an online game developed by Blizzard Entertainment and distributed by Vivendi Universal worldwide.

Castro said that the “formal assignment” of the game has not been given to any Philippine-based firm. However, the AMDG is now working with Vivendi in the development of a business plan for the Philippines.

“It’s a massive plan,” Castro admitted, hinting that the plan includes

setting up a local version of the game in the country, the development of customer support, and the marketing of the game.

He also disclosed that Vivendi has been evaluating local Internet data centers that will host the online game.

“Yes, the game will be in the Philippines soon; that we’ve been planning to bring this game to the country; that we have looked to several IDCs that will host the game,” he said.

Ronald Allan Aquino, sales manager at AMDG, said that the Vivendi has released beta copies of the World of Warcraft to three evaluators in the Philippines, namely AMDG, Mobius Online Games Inc., and ePLDT’s gaming arm Netgames.

“It is likely that Vivendi would grant rights to (World of Warcraft) game to a joint venture composed of AMDG and another company,” Aquino said.

Aquino noted that online gaming in the Philippines is now a growing industry with revenues averaging 9.6 million dollars a year.

“This is the current figure with Ragnarok being the only player in the Philippine market,” he added.

i am a flip in Canada and i play WoW, i started through this link https://signup.worldofwarcraft.com/trial/index.htm

its the full game but it is only 10 days, and its free, when the 10 days expire, just use a credit card through the website or a prepaid game card if u can get one. Your character will not be deleted on this trial account, it will just be saved until you purchase a subscription or gamecard.

Sup its January 2007

15usd monthly ~ 49php:1 usd should be around 735php WHICH IS AFFORDABLE for normal filipinos

GET THIS FRIGGIN GAME IN OUR COUNTRY NOW!

I have been playing the game for almost 2 years and have gear from AQ40/NAXX [for those who play]

and even if I’ve invested so much time on my toon, reasons such as latency issues and American time disparencies [making it unhealthy for Filipinos to raid for good gear] allows this game to be very viable in setting up SE Asia servers.

Another thing is the comming of ‘The Burning Crusade’ expansion making every single current gear obsolete as people level up to 70. This effectively encourages people to reroll or start a new on different servers SHOULD the environment be better [talking about lag :D]

for the record, latencies in the US servers are a whopping low 400~800ms which makes it pitiful for competitive ‘Player vs Player’ [pvp] and sometimes ‘Player vs Environment’ [pve]

People will transfer.. and blizz quality control is a LOT better [massive bannings of cheaters/gold sellers, botters] than the ‘weak’ handling of local MMO companies.

This game has never ‘failed’ at any launch in any country it has been in. EURO KOREA CHINA TAIWAN SPAIN ETC. you name it, IT has been successful and has been the #1 MMO game since its been released

Furthermore, the newest fad here in this country is obviously DOTA which is very similar to WOW’s pvp content as both are based on the same lore and environment.

Dota is played in almost every lanshop I’ve seen and heard of from QC to LAS PINAS to CEBU to Davao. Just log on to US.WEST battle.net server go to ‘PINOY’ channel and see for yourself.

Point is the Filipino’s like this type of game and are settling with the ‘shortchanged’ version of the game [DOTA] and they are doing this not because there aren’t other games to play but because the other games available here ‘suck’. The MMO’s we have currently are all 3rd rate korean games which have never garnered any international awards whatsoever.

Im posting this in hopes that someone with the right connections may bring this game home to our country. [since google easily brought me to this page just with a simple search of ‘world of warcraft philippines’]

Thank you and good day :)

nooooooooo damn blizzard even though iam irrtated i think iam forcly have to play and pay real big-o-money for this kinda game shit! haaaa how depressing how i wish my sister will pay the monthly fees

email me at jet****@****.***

Companies are in talks with blizzard but it seems like its too expensive, like bidding price would be like $2M and additional $3M for setting it up. I’ve been playing wow for like 4 months and has like 2 lvl 60 toons already. This game rocks, but I dont really know if people here can afford it.

Well dude its like this inorder for you to get WoW here in the philippines you need to look for a company who can afford to get blizzard to make servers for us here. And i’ve heared that in doing so a company or some1 muz be able to win an auction that blizzard/blizcon will give. And considering that there are only 1 legit server other than the US means that the starting bid would be so high that not all high-end companies can do so bid.
And yes they are doing the Quality Control thing.

And i cant confirm what my friend said that blizzard made a Korean server juz for koreans.

and yes there were rumors about who will bring WoW in the philippines. But even if WoW will be here in the phil i dont think i’ll be playing the servers here i’ll still stick to US. Just look at the other Online Games arround look wat happend. Do you think that won’t happen to WoW if it ever comes here?
And i dont think the competition is saturated i’d believe that no Company can take the risk of spending SO MUCH and wud be able to gain it back in a couple of months.
The monthly fee’s in US its 15$ per month i duno bout UE but if you do the math its arround 840 more or less.
Think about it…Do you really think Blizzard would juz give away WoW Servers. Dun think so.. ^_^

And the news is they don’t seem to be able afford it. I have also heard it would be Level-Up and Mobius combined.

Anyway I am tempting you into this. I got friends who said the game is really cool!

>:)

I thought LevelUp! already has a grip on the WoW license?
