Flywest Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Hi there, I was wondering if the game was actually out in the US/Canada. I called every software store in town and nobody has it in stock, they don't even have a release date...which I find odd since there is already a patch on the website. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 The game is only available in North America via Battlefront's website. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Yes, the game is out since September, and you can only purchase from us direct if you live in US or Canada. Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Why, you ask? Because retail stores in the U.S./Canada would keep most of the profits for themselves and give BFC the fuzzy end of the lollypop for all their hard work. Sold this way the guys at BFC get rich (maybe), not the CEO of Walmart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 What kind of a phony Canadian posts "Out in Canada"? Any real Canadian would say "Oot in Canada?" Don't feed the troll! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't feed the troll!I think you Canadians should stopping 'outing' each other. It's more courteous to wait until everyone's comfortable with their lives before they admit they're Canadian, Michael. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flywest Posted January 14, 2003 Author Share Posted January 14, 2003 Thank you for all your replies. I downloaded the demo and played the tutorial and Citadel maps on the Axis side. On the citadel map I went as far ( or close lol ) as the secondary crossroads before losing my last tank. Hard without recon units...being newbie doesn't help either hehe. Are the controls representative of the final game or they have work on them...I mean the camera controls could be better. Great game so far..I'll keep on reading the forums for tactics, strategies, hints from the pros. Cheers ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the UBB. The controls and camera angles etc all represent what's in the final game. You get used to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Murray Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Herr Kruger: I've bought a PC game once in a while at WalMart. Sometimes they're cheaper than at the software stores.
