If it's infested with Starforce or sold via GamersGate then buh-bye... Both are abominations against nature...

i`m a few clicks away from opening an account.

Terminus - go away. No offense, but wherever you post, the thread degrades into a shambles [;)]

I have only used them one time.

• You have to use their download system which require .Net 2.0.
• Slow Downloads, the problem might have been at my end.
• Slow support when I had problem with billing.
• Judging from posts on the Sword of the Stars main forum they have to prepare patches on their end. Apparently even Direct2Drive was quicker then them when it came to patching SotS. <<< Dealbreaker for me.

That's what we in the trade call an unfair generalization...[:-]

Eric or David,

What time zone is the 12:01 AM release going to be?

Do you know if the Tri Synergy release is on CD or DVD and whether the disc will be needed in the drive to play the game?

Thanks!

Eric or David,

As far as I have seen they always give the time in the easter USA timezone(GMT -5)

How long is the restriction on Matrix selling game in europe going to last.e.g. 6 months? or forever?
&nbsp;
I'll prob but it from Gamers Gate now so I can play on relaese but would consider buying it again from Matrix if patches, support etc are quicker and better. Also I would like to own a CD copy of game which I am notsure if GG are doing.

i have buy one game from the gamers gate:

- first you must download a downloadmanager
- download the game (500 MB in 2 Hours) very slow for my dsl [>:]
-you became a reg.key and install it ok for the next three times (e-licensing) [:(]

ps you must not online for the installation

Also, did your original distribution deal really not include Europe?&nbsp;Seeing as you have a UK site I would have thought you would have&nbsp;ensured&nbsp;the original deal included UK as well?

Hi Everyone
&nbsp;
Look please restain from calling anyone out.&nbsp; If its needed&nbsp;our Mods,&nbsp;Erik or myself will take care of it.&nbsp;

Hi Guys

NONE of the North American releases will use StarForce of any type.

David

Bloody hell...it was a joke hence the wink at the end.

Considering the mood I'm in with this shit, I think a very, very light hearted jibe was ok

Our deal came through a 3rd party and I guess there was some mis-communication on the details.

David

Guys I am still working on the other questions just waiting for feedback.

Will Matrix games eventually sell UFO:ET worldwide? Or is it a permanent restriction?&nbsp;

David,

Thanks to you and all the great people at Matrix Games. Our brothers who are overseas (Europe) are bummed out about not being able to buy the DD & Physical Copy of ET tonight from Matrix and we realize this is just one of those sucky things that happens sometimes. We don't hold your company responsible and appreciate all the information and great customer support you have given us concerning UFO ET. Those of us in NA are of course pleased that we can buy from Matrix, but for the sake of European Brothers who can't, we are muted about. But a huge thank you from all of us in the UFO ET community to you and Matrix is well deserved.
