Moon Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I just saw it on the shelf at EB Games in Germany today. And to clarify - there is a retail version out in Europe (and in Japan), but for everybody else it's mail order only through us. In other words, all is as it used to be with CMBB. The only exception is that people in Europe now have to choice of buying in retail or directly through Battlefront. Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Moon, I think that it is the timing of what is happening that is the most important aspect of this thread. We who pre-ordered CMAK have to wait for December 5th for the shipping to start when folks in Europe already have theirs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Right, and rest assured that this was neither planned, nor is it that Matt is sitting on printed boxes of the game and giggling Our stuff is in production, and as soon as we have all materials picked and prepared in the warehouse, it'll go out. CDV had an amazingly quick turnaround time (understandable under the pressures of retail to get the product out into stores on time for x-mas season).

Jussi Köhler Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Originally posted by Soddball: Why? It's a legitimate concern. I'm in Europe but chose to order through BFC rather than just walk out to the shops. I have to wait an extra fortnight before the game turns up. I will echo that. Even though I am a big fan of the series I am still a paying customer and it feels weird that I have to wait for my copy longer than someone who has bought his copy from somewhere else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
