This month EA is going to start selling bioware point cards in Russia. Ozon has already listed it: http://www.ozon.ru/c...ail/id/4946494/



Inconvenient, stupid & a bit humiliating... but 100% legal.

Jitenshazuki - I have tried to understand the activation instruction, but failed - Am I supposed to enter the code on Redeem Promo Code page ? Am I fail-Russian-Forever, or what ?

Всегда считала, что у меня очень неплохой русский, даже если иногда немного странный.

Ozon is solution for russia, but not for belarus. Заебали козлы. Ну EA саппорт я поставил немного раком. RtO мне уже подарили и я им объяснил что если не починят - будут дарить аддоны и дальше.

Eleinehmm, the instruction is very strange indeed. The first two steps are: 1) activate your code (link is broken, but I think you're right about redeem promo-code page); 2) run your game and log in. The rest two steps seem out of place (open DLC form to watch the download progress and then follow the instructions). I think that one will just get damn points after redeeming the code. But we'll see. Life is full of surprises. (Особенно если речь об EA)

TrueIceD,
I'm sure that online shops that trade in electronic versions of games and various codes for MMO (like http://direct.cod.ru) will sell codes from those cards. Но ваш метод дешевле ;)

directcod is ok, but it's toooo boring to transfer money from USA credit card to damn webmoney or something. А мой метод ещё и надёжней.

Okay people, move along! There's nothing to see here!



Пишу на русском что бы враги не прочитали :) Ну вообще было так:



1. дождался лайвсаппорта, описал траблу, они передали в сеньёр саппорт

2. подождал дня 3 - глухо

3. ещё раз в саппорт - наругался сильно-сильно

4. ещё пара саппортов - получил себе саппортсупервизора

5. трахнул ему моск хорошенько, он стал предлагать мне скиду 20% на покупку, договорились на 400 поинтов

6. поинты не пришли, ещё раз саппорт - с вопросом `а где мои некупленные поинты`



конечно ушло времени в сумме 2 часа (что раз в 10 дороже чем эти жалкие $5), но блин достали совсем ;]

Here is Level 3 support answer. Looks like nonsense to me.

Thank you for contacting Electronic Arts Customer Support. I apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing and for the delay in my response. Your issue has been escalated to me and I will be happy to assist you in this matter.



I will try and explain what the issue may be. The game it self is not region specific but the DLC and the points needed to purchase that DLC is region locked to North America (NTSC U/C), Europe, and Oceania (PAL, PAL/E). The problem is that Belarus is listed in the Europe region, it does not use the same regional standard. Belarus uses SECAM. We can not sell Digital Content to some regions or countries due to specific laws within that location and it's standards. At this time we are unable to sell digital content to Belarus.



As for the process to extend digital content purchases and services to that country is beyond me and my department. I believe something of that nature would be part of Public Relations, Marketing, and Legal to obtain the proper rights to sell that content to different counties. If your country does have a law preventing the purchase of digital items, then I am afraid there is nothing that can be done by EA to allow you to purchase that material until your country decides to change it's laws. I hope this help explains the problem.

Did you people posting above seriously wait for 2 months instead of following the steps mentioned above to get points?

Don't think you are wiser than everybody else - tried the same, didn't work. PayPal got billed, then rejected at bioware points, money returned in a minute. Seems it autochecks the invoice or something.

Так что, нормальных способов оплаты так и нет, или хотя б не шибко напряжных обходных путей? Потому что покупка 1600 очков ради 400 и неделя ожидания меня абсолютно не радует, как и виртуальная виза из автомата, к-я не факт что прокатит.

That's why you need non-Russian PayPal account (no, you can't change country on already created account) and valid country/city/postal code combination (just google something like hotel or rented apartments).

Если руки прямые - прокатит.

P.S. Apologies to English speakers here. Last statement doesn't translate well. :whistle:

As a Russian customer I can get Mass Effect 2 just for 54.99 Euro.....Wow :whistle:...Now...Let's load Steam. There I can get that damn ME2 just for 59.99USD. Now simple math comes: 54.99EUR x 1.4387 USD per  Euro = 79.11 USD
I'd like to ask WTF? Why should I pay 19.12 USD more? What f*cking for?


That's the very reason why I as a german don't buy german copies of games. Why pay 54,99€ if I can get the very same game without the crappy german localization for just £30 ... £30 x 1.15 = 34,5€ ... so why pay 54,99€ If I can get the game in a better localized version for 20€ less in good 'ol england? Including shipping it's still 15€ cheaper, I just don't get it ^^.

Btw to all russian comrades: Don't give up! And please don't blame Bioware, it just wasn't their decision. If you feel like blaming EA ... sure knock yourselves out :).

Russian disk versions of games are usually cheaper. Some 10-20$ instead of 40-50$ at steam. But with mandatory localization, alas. For example, Russian DVD version of DA:O costs only 500 RUR (~12,2€). But many can't play localized games, me included...

It's 100% bioware fault. They are working with EA and it's unforgivable.

I understand that you are frustrated. I have given you the answer as to why you are unable to obtain the DLC. You may not like this answer, but it is the answer. I have informed you multiple times that technical support does not control this aspect of the game so we are unable to assist. It appears we are going in circles so I will be closing this ticket. Plain and simple, the DLC is region locked and your region is not supported. I do apologize for this inconvenience.

<---



© EA "support". Obviously it's not true (as I _already_ own RtO DLC). I sent direct message to Bioware, want to know their opinion before starting law suit.



PS. Заебали.

Damn, I want pay money, but no! Bioware wants that I use torrents for download hacked DLC. My credit card and my country not good enough for BW. All right, in future, I will buy Blizard games for money and download BW games for free.
