Few technical questions on BNW

[Autokrator48]

Hey, this is my first post, so I am sorry if it's in the wrong section.

First off, if I buy a RoW version of the game, even though I live in Canada (NA), will the expansion still work?

If I buy a RoW version and my game is NA, will it work? And will I be able to play multiplayer with people who have other versions?

Will I be able to play it on the 9th?

Thanks

Welcome to CivFanatics, AutoKrator48. There's no technical difference between "RoW" and "NA" so yes, the Civ5 and BNW will work together regardless of where you buy the licenses. The same goes for multiplayer.

As to whether you'll be able to play on the 9th, that wholly depends on the release date offered by the vendor you intend to purchase BNW from. If it says 9th, then yes. If it says 12th, then no.

So if I understand correctly a RoW version of BNW will work with a NA version for multiplayer?

Also, thanks a lot for your answer!

Release date is the only difference and it's caused not by anything in game but by a very trivial box edition shipping issues.

Technically, I purchased a NA version but when I made the payment with my credit card, release date in order's details changed to the 12th. Bastards!

Ouch, that sucks xD Anyway, thanks!

Actually, how do you check when your game will become available? I mean the date.

Check the store, it will tell you when it is going to be unlocked.
