AC2 : The Big Screwup
Boy, has Microsoft screwed up with this one.
Gamesindustry.biz is reporting that Asheron's Call 2 will only be playable for people from nine countries. All those that pre-ordered their game in the US, but aren't from those countries will not be able to pay for the online gaming part and therefor will not be able to play it at all, leaving them with a payed box which is worth... nothing[BLOCK]In a statement posted yesterday on Asheron's Call Web site Ken Karl, Program Manager for the AC2 Live Team at Microsoft Games Studio wrote: "I can not apologize enough for not announcing this sooner. And to those of you who are in this situation, I would like to personally apologize to you as you are the ones most affected by this. We hope to make announcements soon about additional countries.
Explaining why this happened Mr Karl said: "As lame as it sounds, we simply did not think of it [announcing the restrictions sooner]. We knew about the situation, but we also knew that in the countries that we were officially shipping into, we fully supported them.
"What we did not think of at the time is the "grey" market, or people who would purchase the product from a website since they could not get it locally at the store.
"Once we realized this (a few days ago) we wanted to at least post something early enough so that people could see this and send the product back before it was opened," he said.[/BLOCK]
