It won´t be possible to simply send you the box for an extra charge later.

Normally from me ...possible. This time however I really am trying to justify
why I or anyone would bother waiting till August for a DVD box and great looking cover as your prize for waiting??? No offense Matrix/2x3 but I can just put the downloaded file on a CDRW and put that inside the UV DVD box. The UV cd can
find a nice sleave to live out the remainder of its days. [8|]
That’s my whole freaking point!!!
I’ve been asking this question in different threads and no one from Matrix has directly answered my question about printed materials with the boxed version.
IF the boxed version comes with printed material as UV did, I will hold off. If not, I’ll buy it now.
Why is this concept seem foreign to everyone?
We have stated various times that all print items for WITP will be on the CD as PDFs. Even with the boxed version.
HELLO MARC,

I ran into an error trying to use american express for war in the pacific?
(This credit card type is not valid for processing a transaction in this currency.
Please use your browser's "Back" button, enter a different credit card type, and submit again)
"" Reference above at checkout it listed the cost in canadian funds since i chose the Canadian flag as my order country.""
I don't see how to choose american express as the credit card type. The order form only has a place for the credit card number and drop down boxes for the expiry date stuff.
What am i missing here ?
p.s. Im ordering from Canada,never chose the internbational form since it looks exactly as the first form i get anyways ?
Anyways im confused and really dislike online order glitches since it makes me feel my numbers beinbtg stolen.

I take it this means my order did not work since i got the error at least ?

Atentoko, I think you need Acrobat 5. You can upgrade it for free at the Acrobat site.[:)]

Actually, I think you need Acrobat Reader 6.0, but I could be mistaken. However, if you are upgrading, you might as well upgrade to the newest. [:)]

Just for the record.
I bought HTTR boxed version from EB on the weekend... really good stuff... Well done Panther and Matrix.
That will easily keep me busy until the boxed version of WITP comes out in August. (that and doing Uni part-time.)
Keep up the good work Matrix. [:)]

My experience, with Roadrunner Cable:
300+ KB/sec - took about 25 minutes to download.
------------------------
When I go t the cart screen, I had deselected CD on Demand. (I knpw my way around backups)
After I hit the process order button, a window popped up asking me to confirm my County (Guilford, in NC).
Then I got the message the order was sent and approved.
And the CD on Demand is on the Order!
I was planning on keeping that 10 bucks, but, oh well.
At least it is nice to know it is going to have a professional label on it.

I bought the game yesterday and downloaded it t when I burned the download to CD and tried to install from burned CD it did not work when I installed from download it worked fine. I may but the CD but when I went to my order the CD the choice was for buy backup CD domestic showing Euro and buy back up CD international showing Euro as well as a Canadian do I buy domestic or international. I thought the charges are supposed to be in US$.
I intend to go to my son's on Friday to order and burn the game off his cable connection (110 mile trip). Obviously I am very concerned about you not being able to load from the disk you burned. Please Matrix or others, has anyone else had a problem with the burned disk. Any information from anybody will be greatly appreciated. I don't want to wait until August but sure don't want to spend the bucks only not to have it not load.

There is nothing in the file that should prevent it working on a burned CD. For those who are having problems, I would suggest turning off background processes, burning at a lower speed and seeing if some better quality CDs help. I've seen way too many "coasters" created because of such problems.

Erik,
In the case of an online order for two cd-on demand, would both cds be sent in the same envelope/container? The reason I ask is I ordered two cds and when the package arrived, there was only one cd in it. My Order# was 82912962.
Thanks bunches in advance

It's possible that they were shipped separately, though I wouldn't have expected that. Can you please e-mail us at
support@matrixgames.com so that we can follow up with you directly? Thanks.

Matrix, I am at a loss. My order inquiry at DR states that they are awaiting my funds to be cleared (7/17/04). Yet my bank has informed me that the transaction took place 7/12/04. Five days later and I haven't been approved for my download? Can anybody give me a rational explanation why this is? Home town Indianapolis Indiana US of A.[&:]
7/19/04 got confirmation for download. 16 days total. 25 minutes to download on roadrunner!
