lol? Is this supposed to be Fiesta Europe or something? What the crap is GSP? xD

That is a Fiesta for non-americans. All american IP's are banned from it.

[Aquabelle]

Ahhhh.. it doesn't say anything about it so I was like "LOL WUT" when I got an invite to closed beta in my email.. haha thanks.

[aegrimonia]

they may BE banned eventually (american IP's) but i installed and played the game for a few minutes.. (and i'm in oregon, USA)

[DOTDOTDOT]

I was informed that all American IP's wre already banned I'm just going off the info I had gotten. I never tried it because it's bound to happen so I'm not wasting my time.

I've been to GnG and I'm american...
Was on there when it first came out.
The site was awful when I was there.
When you presented them with problems they would just say the same thing and not give any help what so ever.
Not to mention their insecure site.
(Was hacked because people hacked the site...)

They can't be European because they can't understand English.
(GnG is only a host site though...)

If they ban people for having American IPs then it would be the Fiesta group on there not GnG.

i don't think they will ban the US IPs but it would be kinda a wast to go to that one...
1: already on this one
2: would have to start chars all over. (could be done here if you wanted)
3: same game and updates...
4: i didn't see any thing about GM events... ?
5: with all the INVITES they are sending out that server is going to be PAKED.... LAGGY.

hm....
They are NOT European. To my knowledge, there is absolutely no EU version online game that has an IP block.
And if you go to the main gamengame website and click, at the bottom right corner of the page in "About Game&Game", one can see info about said company. They are owned by KIPA, wich stands for: Korea IT Promotion Agency.
And yes sometimes their english looks like something out of babelfish.
So there you go, they are korean. The gamengame site just offers contents of games allready well estabilished in the Korean market (and allready have their own official korean game servers and distributers and official korean game homepages) for English speaking audiences.
At least, that's what it looks like, wich is nice and all, since to most of us, both European and American, reading korean is like reading egipcian; where like: "duhhhh.....who put the lights out??!!".... and there are some nice games out there we want to try, but most have only been released to the asian markets, and so due to the language barriers we cant try them out, and not everyone understands japanese neither...or chinese for that matter....
The reason for the US IP block is possibly to avoid legal concerns, since int the US Fiesta is allready licenced by outspark [there is an article stating US IP block has been made and they have a link to the outspark website in their fiesta homepage]
GSP.. hm that problably means Global Serviçe Provider.. well Global Serviçe something anyway. Similar title was given to the english version of Record of Lunia War Online. For example, Lunia Online is also provided by gamengame, but it does not have any sort of IP block, because their global version of Lunia is the only english version of the game available.
Hope this helps to clear out some questions.
*URGENT EDIT* by the way, did you guys check some of the screenshots in gamengame's fiesta homepage? i mean...Gothic Lolita Mage? woooo.. sweet!!
zebra stripped racoon? awsome!
