So I pre-ordered

[Beiss]

Now I really think I have the right to complain about it even pre-release. Right now, I'm so happy for the new diplomacy system and what seems to be a more improved campaign map AI that I don't have any present complains. Gimme a few days and I'll come up with something new to whine about.

Does anyone know, by the way, if there's going to be any improvements on mod handling? I don't know if any one of you have played "Oblivion", but I thought their system worked great. You just check marked the mod you wanted to activate and then that was it. Considering how reliant RTW is on mods to stay interesting, it's really quite remarkable how difficult it is to install/uninstall/switch mods for it. I really hope they'll improve that.

What I don't understand is why only the UK can preorder it.

I live in America, AND I WANT TO PREORDER IT TOO!

Does anyone know if they have any RTW timeframe mods planned for it?

[Trajan]

I plan to pre-order the game in September. Not sure who I'll pre-order from but I'll probably go with GameStop again.

There was by Prometheus but I think it was cancelled because the thread is gone. At the moment, no, there is no RTW period mod planned but I'm sure there will be in the following months.

I dont see the point in pre ordering.

Ive never actualy gotten into a store and had the game i was wanting sold out.

And the one time i did pre order a game (RTW surprisingly) it came 4 days late.

im as well just buying it from the stores.

Same here... I pre-ordered one game b/c you got something free w/the preorder. But once the game came out (bf2 i think) I just got it at a different store and saved $10.

You must not buy big releases right away often. Oblivion wasn't to be found in a store if you hadn't pre-ordered for a month in my town (and sometimes even if you had). Madden or NBA live is rarely available in the first shipment if you have not pre-ordered.

Not infact true. I meticulosly watched the oblvion forums everyday waiting for the 1st reports of "OMG I GOT THE GAME AT GAMESTOP TODAY" so when I saw them I rushed around to every store and when I found 2 copies at gamestop the day before it came out, I sat on both and waited for my freind to come so we both got the game a day before release. Miracales do happen...

"Also, does anyone know if it's going to be on DVD this time? I'm so sick of games that come one more than 1 disc."

According to webhallen, its on DVD...

I downloaded oblivion from direct 2 drive.

And my games collection would disagree with you about how many major games i buy.

all the battlefields, all the fifas, all the tw's, all the command and conquers....

plus dozens of other massive games that got hyped to hell.

Who, voluntarily, buys EA sports games these days? The only game where I regretted not preordering was World of Warcraft. Sold out in every store I ran across. I was forced to buy the CE from a little visited department store. They had sold out all the normal ones (X.X)

And for the record: CE's are for fools.

"I live in America, AND I WANT TO PREORDER IT TOO!"

Actually, most games come out in the US before here anyway....

[pansarskott]

I have preorder it from the Swedish site Webhallen! ETA: 3rd of november!!

I doubt they will make the same mistake with M2TW as they did with BI.

Yes, but not the TW games.

Yeah, that's what I did. I did it mainly because I'm going to forget about its release and because I'm too lazy to go to the store and buy it. Now I'll have it in the mailbox...

Also, does anyone know if it's going to be on DVD this time? I'm so sick of games that come one more than 1 disc.

[Beiss]

Sweet goodness. Thanks for the heads-up.

[Beiss]

But did you buy them when they were first released?

[Daneboy]

use www.play.com for preorder. 25 pounds, incl. posting. Release date 27/10.

[Mangerman]

What! Only £25? :o Thats really cheap.

[Daneboy]

Yep!!! Play.com is an awesome online shop. I buy books, CDs and games there. It´s ten pounds below retail price for MTW2.

The reasson they can do that is because the are located on the channel islands. (no tax)
