Is Matrix releasing this game today?

No, it was mentioned in one of Slitherine's Tea Times that it was pushed back to August. I guess a few kinks to iron out before going live.

Same old, same old. August has 31 days, furthermore.

What a bummer... [8|]
I was hoping I could use the anniversary 38% off coupon code I just received for this, but it only lasts for 30 days.Any way this could be extended? There really are no other games I'm interested in at the moment unfortunately.

Can I use the coupon on the Battlefront store directly? That would probably be the best solution.

Yep, bummer. I was in the same boat with my anniversary coupon. Guess I'll have to buy something else.

I'm the same. Was hoping to use mine too. I wonder if they'd let us pre-order?

From the Steam forum:

"Hi guys, unfortunately yes.
We had to move the release date again due to issues that prevent us from properly implementing the PBEM system for multiplayer. The new release date should be in August / September. We'll keep you updated as soon as we have more detailed information on the new date".

It would be nice if the Matrix forum here had a representive from Battlefront occasionally drop in to keep us up to date on developments, or for that matter someone from Matrix themselves appointed to represent the Battlefront Products change the release date "AGAIN" on the original post anouncement when they knew back a while ago that they were not going to be able to release the game on July 22nd. Not a good look, when you want to purchase the Matrix version and you have to go to other forums to find the latest information on developments for the game similiar to keeping up to date on the Black Sea patch drama that was happening on other forums before it was finally released.

Might be wrong here you can redeem your Anv\Coupon, but you don't have to spend it straight away. I'm in the same boat

The offers last for 1 month from you receive it, no matter when you redeem it.
I've contacted Slitherine support to get it extended to use before October so I can (hopefully) use it for Cold War.

During today's Tea Time it looks like the date set for a Matrix release is now November 16th.

Thanks for the info.

Finally! It's on my hard drive and I played through the first training campaign mission for a draw.

I had a hard time downloading the game last night. After the payment was approved I tried downloading from the MG Store page which announced the payment was OK. However it wouldn't download. So I tried from the link in the e-mail I received confirming the purchase. Still no download. Finally I tried through My Page in the MG website. It gave me 4 different servers to choose from for the download. Only one worked.
Please, Matrix Games, the rule must always be CONSUMER FRIENDLY. Remember that not all your customers live in the continental 48. My personal drama unfolded before midnight of the 16th near the Strait of Hormuz.

Hi Nanni,

I've asked our store support to investigate this. You may hear from them in the near future. If you could e-mail me your order details to erikr@matrixgames.com that would also be helpful.

Regards,

Looks like the servers went down overnight, around the time you were making your purchase. This looks to have been the cause of the troubles you experienced, but it has all been resolved since. Please let us know if you have any further problems.
