Buying Factions over the Internet?

Hello. I'm currently living in Mexico, in a place far far from home and
certainly no where near a local "Game Stop". Shipping here will take
months. Is there any place I can buy Factions on-line and just have
them send me the key?

Kind Regards

My friend at work is the laziest person ever. He didn't want to drive 6 blocks out of the way on his trip home, or order online and pick up a package from his package service, so he downloaded from the PlayNC website. PlayNC is part of NCSoft, parent company of ArenaNet.

Click the PlayNC logo underneath the Best Buy/Comp USA etc logos to buy the software. Then they will give you the product key and you can download the software.

Right now it only works for the original Guild Wars. I assume you will have to wait until Factions is released, or closer to April 28, to buy Factions from PlayNC. Sorry it's not a lot of help at the moment, but you should be able to get your game on time that way

Anyone know if PlayNC will have Factions available for download on April 28? I have a feeling it will be delayed.

I don’t want to start rumours but I think Gaile once made a comment about www.plaync.com not selling Factions and she dint knew why they are not selling like they done with Guild Wars.

Again don’t take my word for it but if I find the bit of the chat I will post.


Meanwhile.

plaync is just silly anyway. e.g they *still* list sales of Guild Wars [just the key] for 50$, while you can easily find anywhere else the full boxed version for 30$~40$..

My advice, get some friend who lives in a main area to buy the game for you [and u pay him back via paypal or something], when he gets it just have him email you the key so u can get all the pre order cookies asap, and then send the hardbox via regular mail..
[you don't actually need the hardbox to play factions, so it doesn't matter how many months it will take to arrive]
