Though I'm here in China but I saw no promotion on Entropia Universe. (There's alot on WoW though!) And I started playing back when I'm still in Malaysia and continue so after I got transfer to China. Internet access here in China is really not that bad. Of course there is the occasional news or website that got blocked but generally you can visit any site u like (except for those that got blocked though). As for downloading the EU, well it took me 16hrs to do that here in China using ADSL. Well the line is private line but its quite affordable.
Like I say, there is no news about Entropia Universe here in China at all, no poster, no Ads, that's why I got curious and started this thread.

The chinese already have a presence in EU ...an official one too, the building added not long back?

The days of forbidden cities are long over ...in a few months we'll all be watching the Olympics held there ...and soon after hopefully we'll see EU get a boost and get some new friends to go visit. Can't wait personally.

t
My feeling exactly! And more player means more money in the loot pool and in the general EU economy eh mate?

You have no idea how capitalist the "Communist" Chinese had become... They are communist in name only. Singapore is even more "Communist" than China. Yes, they do occasionally "controlled" the media and people but tell me which country's government that didn't do it in one way or another. Its just that China did it more brutally and openly then most other country.

Anyway back to the original subject. Yes there are China chinese here in EU but their number is insignificant. They are not the so call "flood" that had be rumored. There are no publicity on EU at all in China. (even WoW and Eve Online had an Ad now and then over here). That's why I'm wondering if China's poeple are really going to join EU.

there is little news here and no advertising. MA relies on a few big events to create IT centric press releases that sometime break into the mainstream (i heard of it due to CND sale), conferance demonstrations and word of mouth. never seen an ad.

but have they said that we will be able to travel to the China planets or just used the term in general. The statements 'China will have their own planets. You will be able to travel to other planets as their added.' is not the same as 'China will have their own planets and you will be able to travel to them'.

With MA not explicitly saying otherwise I'd agree that we won't be seeing a large player influx from China. I'd also think the Chinese government wouldn't like to see large amounts of cash leaving China never to return.
