Guest Big Time Software Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 OK, maybe we can cut down on the number of threads this way If you received your copy and want to tell everybody all about how/where you got it, please do so in this thread. And remember, the single biggest variable about WHEN you receive your order is WHEN you placed it, not where you live. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shaw Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 OK Steve, it's your board. But I think you're wrong While some obviously feel that the number of threads is going overboard, to me it feels like a big party and I think it's pretty neat. And I don't even have the game yet ... does that make me a designated driver type? Joe ------------------ Compliments appreciated, Questions answered, Death Threats reciprocated.

GriffinCheng+ Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 BTS and all other lucky people. I think I must not view these threads or I must go nuts since I have a gut feeling that CM would arrive in late June / early July and I can only pick up boxes during weekends so....I must improse a number of self-control while waiting for my CM.... I "hate" you people. Griffin @ work - place ------------------ "+" is just the beginning. Expect to see "GriffinCheng76", "GriffinCheng(105)" or "GriffinChengA3E8" more should Forum problems occur again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Received the game and poster today...ordered the first part of Sept '99. I'm in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffjones Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 I would like to second the comment about the great manual. It's very high quality. It's a shame the "big" publishers don't have the same standards. What a great job, not only on the game, but the manual too. Hats off to the troops at BTS.

Mesquite Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Got it here in Dallas today. Ordered it about a month ago. The label says it was shipped Friday. USPS did mighty fine by me. You all know the game is great....well the manual is great too. Even has an index! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckinDixie Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 I made my way to the mailbox about 1215 and it looked like it was pretty full. All of a sudden the cloudy skies parted and a ray of sunshine showed me the way to the "Holy Grail" ,It had arrived about 2 days sooner than i thought it would. I had only pre-ordered anout June 4. It must be all that clean livin'. The game has more than lived up to my expectations. ( although the wife cant quite figure out what all the excitement is about) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeeGTO Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Ordered when you first could, and still don't have it or the posters in S. FL!! So there must be another variable involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 4 Eyes Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Can't resist..... YES I got it today. I arrived at my mailbox with a friend, who knew that he did not have it yet. There sticking out of the mailbox was a SPECIAL envelope. The game looks great.. though i did not get the poster yet. But, I am definetly not complaining. THANK YOU BTS!!!

Smoke Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Here in Salem, Oregon. Received the poster only! It was shipped on Friday. This is pretty quick so I suppose I should cut the USPS some slack but THEY'RE KILLING ME. Is it normal that one should beat the other? This is not how I wanted to develope character.

KingOPork Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 Woot i got my CM today =P And i had a terrible first mission. (no spoilers) Lets just say i went up against a panther tank, it rico'd 10(!!!) shots from my tanks. I mean it took out 5 of my tanks, while they just rico'd off of it's upper hull. So then at 10 shots, i take out it's tracks...yeah! Then 3 more roco's and i finally take it out. No offense, but that's kinda messed up. It was a normal crew and wiped out my elites like nothing. and i don't think it's supposed to ricochet from 5 different angles. oh well, my battles after that ruled. Regardless, that panther tank ruined my day. -KOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THumpre Posted June 20, 2000 Share Posted June 20, 2000 I got mine this afternoon, and then my wife reminded me that I had to go to a meeting at work. Is that just the most unfair thing you have ever heard of...except possibly NOT having CM show up yet.(right, Capt.?) Great game I can't wait to get right into it. Thanks again BTS. ------------------ No matter where you go, there you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Sorry Steve, I disagree to a degree. It DOES matter where you live. If you live in a major city, you'll likely get it today, Monday. But if you live in a rural area where mail from the city has to go to another smaller district distribution center, then it's going to take another day. Just like my situation. The major city is St. Louis and then from there it goes to the XXX00 zip code town and then to me the following day. For all people that didn't receive it today, Monday. We will most probably get it tomorrow, Tuesday. ------------------ "I for one, am pretty damn close to Genius"--Ol' Blood & Maximus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
