Title: US/UK version question
Post by: Azazel on September 21, 2009, 02:22:33 AM

Quick one here - is LotRO split between US and Euro servers like WAR, WoW and some other games are, or can you buy a box from anywhere and play it on any server?

I have 2 boxes here from US/CA, but can get others decently cheap from the UK for my friends. Would we be able to play together?

thanks!

No, it's localized. It's ~~run~~limping along by CodeMasters in Europe, so they have their own client and keys. Corollary, you need a US key to play on the US servers.

If you plan on buying the game in the US, I'm betting the digital purchase available from the account store is the cheapest.
