FORGE OF FREEDOM IS NOW AVAILABLE (This is not a drill)

Post by Gil R. »

"Forge of Freedom" has just been released, and is now available for purchase. It has just been listed in the "Store" area of the Matrix site, and retails for $49.99.

Enjoy!

question = I could only get the digital download version - I was thinking you could also order both boxed and digital download version with Matrix ? Can you upgrade later on ?

Looks like I picked the right night to skip class.  Who needs an education when there are games to play?

You and Jchastain are still going to finish your game right Gil?  Reading the AARs have been very helpful in learning about the game and I hope you don't decided to start over or end it now that the retail version is out.

Unfortunately, I know nothing about that. Perhaps someone from Matrix who's visiting this site can let us know.

I'm eager to continue, but since jchastain's National Will is at -5 he might lack the resolve to see through what he started when he invaded Virginia.

Just a note. I found the game on the UK and Canadian pages of Matrix store but the US page was giving an error. I tried it 3 times. So I am downloading it from the Canadian page right now. If others have a problem in the US try one of the other countries

In the "order placed" thread. 2 ppl also said they cound not find it in the store, but navigated the order from the games section of the web site

It probably my fault for starting a "it's here" thread...so justice...however

I have payed by paypal, I was returned to the DR website with the link to download my fle and I get an error, telling me to "Click here for Customer Services"...when I click that link, I get another "incomplete" loading of a page with an html text at the top and nothing else.

When I go to findmyorder.com and type in my order number and password, I get the same thing..."Problem with your order...please contact Customer Services" with the same crappy link to the same crappy web page.

Some help in getting my purchase onto my computer would be appreciated. [&o]

Of course, if no help is forth coming, I will accept it as retribution for my false "It's here" post [:D]

It's available by phone, but not the US net.Link. And ONLY as a digital download. What about those of us who want a disc as well?

Mike

Same as always....same as all other games Matrix sell...you must know the score by now. Digital Download comes out asap. As soon as it's ready, normally 2 weeks or so, the Physical Shipment becomes available, with or without Digital Download.

Nothing has changed...that'sthe way Matrix has always worked. You've got over 3,000 posts to your name...surely you know this already? [;)]
