I don't wanna put your hopes down, but there is a high chance that there will be IP Ban on Sea countries because they already have a server.

The "i" in iRO2 stands for international, let me ask you this is iRO IP blocked?... No, just cuz Sea RO2 did it doesn't mean its going to happen here then they wouldn't be able to call it "international Ragnarok Online 1 or 2". the reason Sea did it cuz there internet out there can't handle the amount of ppl that NA can so the put restrictions on who can get on there server.

Definition of International:
1. between or among nations; involving two or more nations

2. of or pertaining to two or more nations or their citizens

4. having members or activities in several nations

5. transcending national boundaries or viewpoints

though i'm not worried about the IP ban itself since there are ways, what i am concerned about is that if they would let us play on the beta test and then some then there will be an announcement later on that it will be region locked eventually which would lead us to ragequitting. This happened to us at aika gpotato where tons of player left.

Since there is already an RO2:LotS (SEA) which is for asian countries, it would most likely be that way.

Watch out guys, this badass can quote from dictionary.com.

Anyway, I read somewhere that this was being launched as a global server, so I don't think WarpPortal's servers will be region locked. Not too sure though.

It's just an annoying question when the answer to there question is in the name of the game iRO2 obviously ppl don't know what the "i" is for so I just enlightened them. Just cuz Sea RO2 had a region lock they think iRO2 will too "Sea" doesn't mean international so they can do that. NA has way better internet than they have over there and can support the amount of bandwidth that it takes for other regions to play on are servers.

It's really up to the contract that they secured with Gravity. While iRO isn't region locked, it can be a completely different case with iRO2. Though for the success factor of iRO2, I'd hope they wouldn't IP lock.

What's funny is that I don't think even the FB staff knows for sure, as they've been flip-flopping in those answers for the past months.

Using tools like VPN and such is illegal and puts you at risk of getting your account and personal IP blocked. :T Just warning you.

:heh: Well, people think it makes them SO clever that they can get around an IP ban....... I just sit back and giggle when the proverbial s*** hits the fan, because I'm always the one giving them the: 'I told you so' line. ♥
