BornGinger Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I would like to have a go at this game's demo version. It's now about 10 days since the Cold Was was released but still no demo on the purchase site. Any special reason to why Cold War has no demo? Is it maybe supposed to be able for download at a later date? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know when, but I have played the demo scenario twice so it's a matter of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have just finalized three candidates, hopefully we will pick one or two and have demo(s) up shortly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The home page will always be "lates" rather than "news". That is by design and on purpose. First the pre-order people are contacted. Then, usually 8 to 24 hours later a forum post is made. Then, days after that, an announcement is made on the home page. It's a progressive rollout to try and mitigate slow download times. It was even more important with Cold War because Fire and Rubble and it's patch were released within a week of Cold War. Internally we call it a "soft rollout". It's a feature, not a bug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The words above were written on 10 May. It's now almost a month ago and there's still no demo for this game on the purchase page. Is Battlefront waiting for the Steam release before a demo is available or are they waiting for something else? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Battlefront waiting for the Steam release before a demo is available or are they waiting for something else? Yes. It was decided that the Demo would have the same PBEM functionality as the final wide release (which makes sense) so it is going to have to wait until that whole add-on is incorporated. Short answer is we are looking at Steam release or shortly there after even though we have scenarios all picked out. Apologize for inconvenience. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornGinger Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Thank you for a swift reply. I'll check the purchase page again in about two months' time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you haven't had a chance there are a lot of videos up on YouTube which also show off game play in a lot of detail. Not a substitute for a good old fashion demo but it might at least provide more info for any interested gamer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornGinger Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I have watched a few CW-videos on Youtube. But it's also fun to find out about the weapon systems by playing the demo and reading the manual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be around the same time as the Steam release. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet. I am waiting for this.... The artwork is done for the DVD sleeve. Wanna see it or be surprised? (Actually...regardless of your answer I probably won't post it before it ships. But I heard a rumor that Bil wants to make a poster out of it. ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artkin Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Of course I want to be surprised Sounds like something good! Rightfully so, this is an important game.
