I've preordered, now what?

September 12, 2006 7:34:35 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Ok, so i broke down and preordered be4 it's too late. So now what happens?

I assume my card gets charged when the game is released?

Will DA have open Beta's prior to release like GC2 did?

How would i access those? via SDC? How does SDC know i preordered if my store login and SDC login aren't the same?

I ordered a CD with my preorder, i assume it will ship out once everything gets released?

Is DA still on track for an OctoberISH release?

That's how it was with GC2.

Possibly, but as we're aiming for October and there's no mention of one yet, it's looking less likely.

How would i access those? via SDC? How does SDC know i preordered if my store login and SDC login aren't the same?


If we do one it'll probably be like with GC2--temporary serials sent out to the email you preordered with, which you then register in SDC.

Assumably.

Is DA still on track for an OctoberISH release?


AFAIK.

There are no plans to send DA to retail *this year*. Of course that doesn't mean it will next year either, but it's not been ruled out completely AFAIK.

October means, "Jesse said we're trying to get it done sometime in October"

You know, I would really hope it get sent to retail cause there's no way for me to get the game via download cause I have no card or what so ever.... and beside I'm on the other side of the planet.... so please... retail cd is needed.

Correctly done is far more important to me than by a hoped for date.

I like this one. When did Stardock invent Time Travel?
(oh, and was the research breakthrough presented by the good or the bad robot? )

Well, that is a nice reason to download the game: play the game at the same time that others and not waiting for retail in your country.

You could always have a CD send by Stardock, but there will likely some shipping fees (that you don't have with an electronic download)

You have the money, then you can open an account at a bank. You open an account you can get a debit/credit card or you can use paypal

And now we play the waiting game. i am winning.
