FAQs

Business model

i. Where can I purchase G-points and game time?

Ans: Game Value Cards (GVC) will be available in selected retail outlets from 16th August onwards. However, due to the wide range of our distribution channels, the availability of the GVC in your region depends on local distributors. Alternatively, there will be online shops available for you to purchase game value codes.

ii. Do I have to pay for both game time and G-points to play G.E.?

Ans: There are 2 bundles of game value you can choose from when you purchase a game value code. You can choose “Game time + G-points” or “G-points Only”. This model allows flexibility in your purchase. The value of the game time is a just nominal amount. If you buy “Game time + G-Points” most of your investment will be transferred into G-points. You can review the pricing list online to decide which bundle better suits your gaming needs. IAHGames is exploring promotional plans to enable gamers to trade in their game time for G-points in later stages.

iii. My friend would like to try out Granado Espada before committing it to it fully. Is there any free trial period?

Get your friends to start playing now! For all gamers who have at least 1 Level 20 character by 29th August 2007 2359hrs (GMT+8), they will get to enjoy 90 days of free game play after the commercialization date on 30th August 2007. We do not have a free trial period at this point in time, but we are planning to have one in future.

iv. I am new to Granado Espada. Where can I get the V2.1.18 game client?

You can download the 200MB manual patch to patch to your current V2.0.9 client or you can download the entire V2.1.18 game client. The URLs for both types are located here.

v. I bought the limited edition box set which states that I have a free upgrade to the next version (V2.1.18) of Granado Espada. How can I claim the V2.1.18 upgrade?

You can download the 200MB manual patch to patch to your current V2.0.9 client or you can download the entire V2.1.18 game client. The URLs for both types are located here.

Alternatively, you can contact your local distributor for a free CD/DVD copy of the 200MB manual patch.

vi. I bought 30 days worth of game time. Is the game time logged only when I am online?

No, the game time runs for 24 hours after you activate it. This is regardless of whether you are online or offline. For example, if you activate your 30 days game time on 1 December 2007, 0800hrs, the game time will expire on 31 December 2007, 0800hrs.

90 days Free Game Time Reward

i. I do not have a Level 20 character now, can I still level up and meet the requirement for the free 90 days game time?

Yes! It’s for all gamers who have at least 1 Level 20 character by 29th August 2007 2359hrs (GMT+8)

ii. What other conditions are there to this 90 days reward?

None! You played G.E. since POBT, you have managed to level at least 1 character to minimum Level 20, you get the FREE game time! However, if you commit any offence under our game policy, the 90 days game time will be forfeited.

iii. I bought the Limited Edition Boxset which promises to give me 180 days of free game time. Does this mean I will get 180 days + 90 days?

Yes! You will be able to get 180 days + 90 days = 270 days, as long as you have at least one character of minimum Level 20.
