Well, reading the FAQ on the homepage, I was somewhat dissapointed.

Why? Well, I'm european, swedish more exactly and whereever else you read, you can see that this is not an american-only game, but still the FAQ says nothing about IF and WHEN the game is released in europe, and how payments will be handled there, the sum of it all (I know you have stated that it's not decided yet, but you have it in "round figures" but only for americans).

If you want to have the number of players you say, wouldn't it be fairly ignorant or silly to exclude european players as well? Shouldn't we get the same support that american players get?

By no means do I mean to be offensive, but it is fairly sad that I, willing to pay4play just as much as anyone else, would have to pay about ten times the amount, due to exchanges and distance, just to play this game =/. I would just like some info if someone is actually taking the time to care for us europeans or if we just gotta take what little scraps we can find =/ ?

In addition, I would like to ask this:
You pay4play per month but what if you are going away for a little while, can you send an email reporting you will have downtime, thus beeing relieved of that months payment?

I'm not a person with alot of money, infact, most of what I get my hands on would go to PS if I enjoy it still after month #1, so instead of just tossing them away without no certainty whatsoever, a reliant and supported "place" to send money to, and to ask about payments and get some help about game difficulties etc would be really REALLY nice as well.

Last question, PS is due to release 31: st of march (maybe it changes, but this is the official word) but I suppose that is american-based info, and what about europe, when can we expect to see some PS action?

((Again, I am not mad, I am not meaning to insult and/or provoke anyone, I would just like some answers about these questions, since they are vital to me beeing able to play or not. Connection for me is not a problem, got a steady 10mbit line and the comp is reaching the minimum reqs with some in addition, but paying is vital, and the amount decides really))

I don't see PS coming out on the 31 here in the US. I see it coming out after the US date in EU. At least a month. There are plans to release the game in EU, and a server is in plans for amsterdam. You may have been reading about beta, which will not be open to EU players until the mass open beta. Don't sweat it, you'll get your game too. I'd say the price will be close to whatever the other MMO games are over there.

Thank you for the reply

In other words, about 100-150 each month, server in amsterdam. Well, sounds perfectly ok-ish for me =)
