Don't know- the message yesterday just said 'couldn't connect to server' or something similar. In the options you can also choose to accept or refuse players from outside your region, so maybe yes?
Played a good couple of hours more last night and did manage to get online that time, though a message flashed up saying they were having problems connecting to Xbox Live (which wasn't quite right- it just wasn't connecting to their servers). About half an hour in, the connection dropped. Was quite amusing seeing people die by rolling into the big well at Majula for no apparent reason though.
Golgo mentions above that DS2 has lost most of the previous game's grim and oppressive atmosphere. I take the point - it's a lot lighter from the off - but so far I've found it's still got a very imposing atmosphere. The sense of loneliness is much more acute here, I think.
