If I Import the PC version from the USA will i be able to play this game on my PC. If yes, will I also be able to go online, Or will I have to wait for the EU release in December.
Thanks in advance,

I guess you'll be able to play online on the US version without waiting for the EU version, I mean, there are people here who imported the JP version and are playing online.

Some people like to play the game in advance and dont want to have to wait months before playing it in their region/language.
Thats like asking why importers imported KH2 or FFX and stuff before the release date.

I don't think you should, but it's not my money.

Well he did say import from the USA... And I'm assuming he's in the UK or just understands the english language. In which case as far as I'm concerned there IS no reason to get two copies. Afaik the US and EU servers were going to be the same.

I heard that the US and EU versions were getting released seperate dates.
Also, notice I said "region"/language. It was a statement for importers in general.

Corrected by others, thanks.

I was able to get online with the Japanese version from the UK,

........... and iirc, the NA version is using the same Sega sign up (though you have to pay a different subscription) as PSOBB.

So I'd imagine it will be pretty straightforward to play online with the NA PC import.

You might as well just wait 16 days and import the NA release rather than importing the JP version, IMO.
