I want to play on the official servers. Will I have to first buy the Boxed US version of the Game? Or does Battle.net allow users to pay through a creditcard and download the Game off their servers?

I am new to this, please guide me =)

You can dl the game of the net but inorder for you to play on offical realms you need the original cd keys + game time. Make an accout, dl the game you get 10 free days of play time or lvl 20 cap which ever 1st.
Sadly neither the game nor the game time cards are available in Pakistan. You can buy them of battle.net or play-asia.com (takes around 1-1 1/2 mnth for the game to arrive through play-asia).

Thanks a lot for the input, btw is there any other way to get the Game shipped faster? Plus I am a Mac user, would play-asia.com have Boxed US retail version for the Mac? I don't use Windows.

Mayb just dl the mac version through worldofwarcraft.com (when you make your account oh and i believe its battle.et accounts now) and buy game from battle.net online so you'l get the cd key in your email account. Besides whn you dl the game it will take some time downloading and updating as well.
Get started now:p

Yes, it can. Order it from www.play-asia.com and they'll offer other shipping options like DHL which ship in 3-4 days. Do keep in mind that the shipping will cost atleast 10-30 U.S dollars. If you can wait longer then go for free shipping as they don't charge for the shipping charges with that option checked.

As for the MAC version of the game then yes they do have copies of that as well.

Hmm a Maccie eh? Well you better get a mouse with 2 Buttons 'cause it's hard as hell to play without right click.
Anyway, the CDs contain the MAC version as well. There's no separate PC or MAC version they're both in one box (the one you're buying).
Don't believe me see here (In case you can't see it Macintosh is written along with Windows):

Q&A Session:

1 - how much time do you guyz play on an averagein a day.
On average, 2-3 hours a day. If you get into raiding expect it to rise to 4.

2 - if some one is selling retail account and i buy from him the only thing i have to buy is monthly subscription evey month?
DO NOT BUY AN ACCOUNT, I CANNOT STRESS THIS POINT ENOUGH, DO NOT TRADE, DO NOT BUY! THEY WILL SCAM YOU OR BLIZZARD WILL CATCH YOU! (caps for teh sriuznezz)

3 - which server do you guyz mostly play on?
Blood Furnace [US]-PvP-Medium Population
Me and DesuDes (Desolater) play on it and hopefully Hasan will join us soon too.

Can you please check this link? http://tinyurl.com/yk6mryv Is this the boxed US version that I should be getting?

Plus will the boxed version contain both the PC/Mac version like @BLOOBY mentioned?

Also please tell me would I need the expansions too? the Burning Crusade and the Wrath of the Lich King.

THIS is what you should be getting. Wrath of the Lich King can wait for a while. THC (imo) is essential.
And yes dude. It will. That picture is of the two copies i own. The setup included in the CDs works for both MAC and PC. Heck, my cousin owns a Mac, I installed WoW on it using these CDs.
You could always download it though, all you need is the keys to make an account.

Thanks for all that information, it was a great help and I will be ordering the CDs from that site now =)

Btw what server do you and Desolator play at? and which Faction and Race?. Cz I might join in the same just to find good company.

Though my personal favorite is Dwarfs.

Na dude. No matter how much girly BE look but the are the best rogues against Mages and Warlocks. The silence from Arcane Torrent is really deadly to say the least. Orcs are good when it comes to PvP but they do have stun resistance which does help against palas and warriors. However, since you're more of a PvP guy then i guess rolling for an Undead is the most sensible option because of "Will of the Forsaken".

Thats good to hear mate. As for your question its better you find out the things yourself. Really its a treat find something new each day. Also don't get jumbled up in race and class selection. Just make up a character that you like and start playing.

*The worst part of making a character is finding a name though lol. *

I have made up a character named 'Flushy' on the Blood Furnace realm, I think its a Tauren Druid. But I am getting around 350ms latency on a 1MB DSL connection.

Isn't the latency high? or is that normal.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
