Purchase Question

If I purchase a retail code online does it matter if it is for a EU or NA box.  Can I still register it to a NA account if it is a EU Box.  If anyone knows the answer please let me know.  I found it for less than $10, but just want to be sure I can register it to a NA Account before I purchase it (would be a Standard Edition Retail Box code not a Buddy Code).

Thanks,

Jim

    EU = EU

    NA = NA.

     

    If you want to play on NA servers you will need a NA retail key.

    K TY does anyone know where I could purchase a NA key online nice and cheap.....Not willing to pay more than $20 for this game in its current state, but willing to give it a try if it is cheap.

    Thanks again,

    There are no regional servers

     

    However, if you are NA, you are better off with an NA account because I believe you have to go through a lot of hassle setting the game up if outside the designated region

    There are no official online retailers AFAIK. If you decide to buy a key online you will be doing so at your own risk. Caveat emptor.

    Sig so that badges don't eat my posts.

    yes there is a difference. Another tip for you is, dont buy any of the codes. FF14 is not a very entertainin g game.

    Granted you said you were looking to get it online. The gamestops in my area(VA) were selling the NA version for 19.99 this past week with some sale.
