EU prices are most likely due to the server farm rental and personnel costs are way higher than in the US.

Do we know where the servers are likely to be hosted as WoW shows that having them in France with Telia is a bad bad idea.

diffrence in price was discussed in the past.  Eventually everyone agree'd it was due to taxes.

I hope they place them in the Netherlands.

If i'm not mistaked Turbine did that with LOTRO and those servers rarely have problems.

Seems like standard MMO pricing.  Nothing crazy to see here... Move along.

QFT!

Prices are pretty standard. 1€ more or less is not such a big deal and with that +1 € the game still costs like WoW and I'm sure AoC is worth a lot more then WoW.

I don't know what you think you agreed. But the subcription price to Europeans is 20 dollars into month, and the VAT comes only on top of that. I never agreed that Funcom asking us Europeans 1/3 more before taxes would be caused by taxes.

But, I don't want to generate another argument about that. I just get mad at people who decide to tell that something was discussed and agreed when it was discussed but not agreed.
