Fun fact. Austalians have to pay 15 bucks more for overwatch, and I read somewhere that new zealanders have to pay 30 more. Because blizzard just loves them import laws.

So to get it cheaper theres a little way to manipulate the site.

Essentially all you have to go is to change the region of the site to taiwan after you create your account, this converts everything to Taiwan dollars, 1300 this converts to 55.

Youre probably wondering why taiwan, why not russia or china since its a few bucks cheaper. Well thats because those two places are region locked and you can only play on those servers, taiwain is a global product, meaning you can play it everywhere.

Create your account. Change the region to taiwan. Pay 55 through paypal since it converts, download the battlenet desktop app, install and change the region to americas.

So remember aussies and new zealanders, screw blizzard and manipulate their stupid site to avoid having them rip you off.

I have no idea if this exploit is common knowledge but its always worth repeating

Interesting POV. Downright practical way to get around "currency" issues. ;) O0

Excuse my ignorance. :-[ What is overwatch?
The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own. Aldous Huxley

On a good day, our legislature has the prestige of a drunk urinating on a wall at 4am and getting most of it on his shoe. On a good day  ::) Steelgrave

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat

Overwatch is a Team-Based Shooter (a multiplayer first-person shooter).
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.
