Hi,
I hope for DigitalDownload tomorrow, but what's about PDF manual ?
I know that without real interface there can be some confusion and a lot of questions here, but we can spend time before actual release. [:D]
It should be just link here in forum, for devoted fans only. [:'(]
bye

That is the game - but note that it says "availability 1-2 weeks" as it has not shipped to stores yet.
It is for sale on a "pre-order basis" to ship when they get it, but nobody but reviewers and testers actually have it yet.

You know, reviewers and testers use ebay too. They test, or review, then sell. So those ebay listings could very well be availabe now. I'm still getting mine through DD, I just hope that doesnt mean I'll be one of the last ones getting the game, and not the one of the first, which is why a lot of us use DD to begin with [:(]

Thats why I just ordered a sealed box copy from a ebay reseller with a 99% postive feedback ratio.
I will get a copy for my son before friday.. will you?
You might.. but atleast I know for sure when I'm getting mine.

Before I utilise the DD route can anyone in the U.K. post details of any printer able to produce the manual for a reasonable price.

I looked at the availability page at amazon
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/br ... 42-3523019
and copied this from it
"Usually ships in 1-2 weeks: we expect to receive the item from a distributor and ship it to you within 1 to 2 weeks of your order."
So dont be surprised if you DONT have it by friday.

I bought it from a power seller company on ebay.
TITLE WILL SHIP ON 03/17/2005 - next day delivery.. umm ok maybe Saturday.
In time however for when I need it. Lord knows I am not going to wait around here for this disturbuter to decide when they will LET let me know when I CAN buy it.

You can also order it from ebgames, gamestop, etc, which have a prerelease date of 3-16, get overnight shipping, and have it on the 17th. So you can actaully have it by thursday if all goes well. Hopefully since retailers will have it on the 16th, the download will be available on the 16th.

My point is.. I went directly to the game's main website searched at the shop for the game.. ended up on these forums and still wasn't able to find that information.
All these other places are able to give information that isn't provided at the main source.
That I think is messed up.
Good luck with your direct download thing.

As there will be no retail version in shops here in Czech Republic, I'll use DigitalDownload (I bought WitP this way) and hope for this week release ... my credit card is waiting [8D]

Apologies to everyone, including HiRoller. [&o]

well obviously what we are looking here is that whole sellers must get it tommorrow.. And I am dealing with a whole seller that skips the middle man.
Unless of course there is some mass conspiracy to disturbute the game earilier..
A conspiracy thats is spread across many different companies

No need to apologize to me.. It's obviously that you didn't read this thread in it's entirety or you are unable to comphrehend the situation at hand..
As it clearly states that several reliable companies are offering this game within the next two days..
So your attempted mockery agaisnt me with this lame "bridge" scenario thing fails miserably in its desperate attempt at humour.
Until you can confort me with something more clever or serious.. I suggest that you don't bite off more then you can chew..

umm, hiroller, We (Matrix Games) are the Publisher of the game. NO ONE has the game because it has not shipped from us to ANY distributors.
They may be reliable distributors but they do not have GGWAW in stock and will not until the week of 3/28/05

Well, I'm sorry...but subject aside, I think that was extremely funny.
Look, m8...you aint getting a legal copy of this game until the end of March. If you do get one, and your kid can't play online, you'll have t explain to him that it was your reliable EBay guy that let him down...and not you!

All these companies aren't disturbuting illegal copies..
Do yourself a favour and READ this thread.
This is NOT some guy selling illegal copies on ebay. This is in FACT several companies offering the same product on the EXACT same day.
Way ahead of scheduled reseller release.. which indicates obviously that these companies are indeed whole sellers that skip the middle man.
Is there anything else that you would like to ignorantly add??
