International gametap signup

Is there any news on when us international residents can sign up for gametap. I'd like to check out the rest of the features too before URU live comes out !!

I don't think that regular GameTap has plans to go international, even though Live will be.

Then why does the press release say "As part of GameTap’s bold new initiative, the “Uru Live” game and community will be available to GameTap subscribers later this year as part of their monthly subscription."?

Maybe they'll release an international Uru Live client as well.

It may be that we also are in part (those lucky enough to be chosen) beta
testing Game Taps new service aswell, I’m sure those chosen will be fully
informed when need be!

Definitely deinitely DEFINITELY interested in any news that comes out on this.

Without any other information right now, this looks very bad for non-US subscribers; the website encourages you to sign up for a trial of Gametap, which as a non-US resident I cannot do, and that makes me nervous.

I sincerely hope there is no question that only US residents will get full value for their money here. If I am paying the same money, I expect, not unreasonably, the same service everyone else gets.

Thanks, Grey Dragon! It's good to know Cyan is paying attention to people's concerns and addressing them.

Thats great Ryan

Because I was so worried about if I (in Denmark) would be able to get into the cavern the time it is released.
I really want to fully support Cyan World, 100%, and thats why I'm ready to test my --- of if I get chosenin the choosing of testers.

I must say I'm glad to see that Cyan is checking and making changes based
upon stuff in this forum

Ushgarak · **Posted:** Tue May 09, 2006 9:05 pm

Yup, that's appreciated indeed.

The Cyan folks are well aware of the size of Uru's international community. Without them (you!) and their (your!) support, I doubt (N')Uru Live would even be possible.

That's good news!

I'd be interested to know how live will be accessible from Europe for the sake of most players and especially the UK where I live.

(paraphrased from FAQs)
Q: What if I am not a GameTap member?
A: You will still be able to access Uru:LIVE for the same monthly fee, but without the extra benefits of being a GameTap member.

My guess? All of our International friends will be part of this "not a GameTap member" group who can still access Uru:LIVE...

So basicly you don't have to be a gametap subscriber to play URU and the price will be the same?

Hmmm sounds like there will definately be a new patcher. eh either way I still want to play

thats a shame I'd have liked to subscribe to gametap anyway.
