Hello, 1st of all wanted to say ty for the guide.
Now the question: i've tested my ping to the kr/sea servers and it was arround 300 ms, can any1 tell me how much would that be ingame ? Friend told me about 0,5 secs delay, can any1 confirm this?
Ty in advance

Ping test is not entirely accurate, and it also depends on your aversion to lag.

For the best assessment i recommend downloading the starter edition on TW and testing out the lag yourself. If you find it playable you can then purchase a key from our store to upgrade your starter account.

Hey, the patch screen converts to the english patch server for whatever reason. I'm not sure if i should go through with the patch or not. Figured if I post here someone might give me the go ahead. Any problem?

**nirvAnA** · Sat, 15th-Oct-2011, 5:45 AM

Yea patch notes may appear in English which actually is good! Won't be a problem if you installed in separate folders as mentioned in the guide so don't worry!

Works great, doing my placements now. 2 - 0 so far

I'm a new user to this site, but I'm very great-full for this guide, I'm patching the KR/TW account now, and am so happy to say that this was the cheapest, fastest, and most efficient way that I could find to do this. I've always wanted to play on the KR/TW server, and finally now, I get the chance to do so. Thank you, so very much!

Yeah, I'm confused on receiving my key in the private message, I can not find where to find my inbox to check if I have received it or not. =X

You will receive an email notifying you of any PMs you receive, so you don't even need to check the site.

I have an old battle.net account with WoW currently on it (inactive) that I wanted to use for this so I could share the account with friends or other people without compromising my main account. Would this work or would it prompt for for the "Taiwan ID" im reading about?

I really rather not have two SC2 accounts on one battle.net

**nirvAnA** · Fri, 21st-Oct-2011, 2:52 PM

ya it will work as long as that other account is a "NA made" account as well.

Hi, a couple of noob questions to ask >_<

1) Does the 7 hours include the time I'm offline or is it just during gameplay?

2) Playing on TW server means there'll be Korean players and not server switch like SEA/NA?

**nirvAnA** · Sun, 23rd-Oct-2011, 7:38 PM

1. 7 hours of game time, the thread is actually here http://www.sc2sea.com/showthread.php?t=2362
This thread here is for the paid account which last forever.

2. Correct, TW & KR server has merged, and the majority of players will be Koreans. Unlike SEA and NA which are separate servers.

dire · Wed, 26th-Oct-2011, 5:13 AM

How come this is supposed to be a korean account but I can't use the korean Client? I've got the TW client which works but when I try to use the korean client it won't let me log on. I thought the accounts were on the same server?

**nirvAnA** · Wed, 26th-Oct-2011, 5:48 AM

They are on the same server because the Taiwan server merged with the Korean one. But they are still subject to the laws according to their country so for e.g in Korea you need a korean social security number to play all online games.

And to avoid using an illegal fakeSSN people play with the TW client which is really the exact same thing except for the client. I believe if you want to the kr client interface so bad you can always use a relocaliser but thats a grey area so not something i recommend.
