Is my copy of Guild Wars 2 tied to my region?

Yes. To play from North America you must purchase a North American copy of the game.
To play from Europe you must purchase a European copy of the game.
Note that this restriction impacts where you can play from, not which game worlds you can choose to play on.

By purchasing the correct copy of the game, you're supporting the game in your country, and you'll be connecting to your local data center, using your local customer support team, and downloading the correct language support for your country.
________________________________________________________________

This does not mean they'r blocking countries from playing on same servers
In fact this ensures us that we can play together whichever version we bought

Edit: They posted a new post to clarify this

They posted a 2nd post to clarify the above one as it led to confusion

Here are some answers and clarifications for you! First, if you purchase the game from https://buy.guildwars2.com/ you'll automatically be sorted into the right region.

And don't worry -- we want you to play with your friends wherever you are.
This policy only affects where you can login from -- not which worlds you can access.
People from NA will be able to play with people from EU at launch.
We've got two datacenters -- one in NA and one in EU.
Those who do not fall into either of those two regions will default to the NA datacenter.

Finally, we are aware that a lot of our players travel, and we are looking into a solution for you.

Hope that helps some! ~RB2

So for outside NA and EU, which version we buy? Or we can play in any version but just drop in EU or NA database, but i do not think that matters since we also choose NA server to play together?

Outside of NA/EU is currently set to be auto located to NA

But they are re-checking this

Basically I'd say safest bet is to go on NA as that's the data-center that you will be linked to from outside NA/EU

The question i have in mind is, if we outside NA and EU bought the EU version will it automatic put us into NA database as well?

Because i am selling this and just need it to be clear lol. Only selling EU version at the moment.

I don't think so Kenny

I think you have EU for EU, and NA for the rest of the world atm

But don't hold me to that as I'm not 100% sure

I'm actually not even sure what our dedicated vent information is yet XD; i remember we switched out different vent hosts back then. If Snow could clarify which one it is we are using. (:

Once we get closer to the first public beta weekend i am hoping we will have a much more solid communication routine organized.

Here's the vent info page, but again, I'm not sure which one is active: https://aeth.darkbb.com/t4496-guild-ventrilo-servers-10-jan-2010

Multi-purpose Vent*
V30.DARKSTARLLC.COM
Port: 39924

Is our standard vent that doesn't run out
For now that's the only one up

But I will be considering Mumble, as Vami mentioned Vent has voice lag issues when people from all over the world join in

I don't expect much Vent activity yet until the actual 1st beta weekend starts
