Default Re: Problem

Llamabeast, I have not got an MP demo going yet.

This is not my preferred genre. I am more of a historical military gamer. I have never had a problem with fantasy, just not my fave. But, since the depth of this game is seemingly endless, I am strongly considering this purchase. And, yeah, it is expensive, even as games go. But not all that much more than most good wargames.

I never suggest that anyone buy this game right off the bat.
I ALWAYS suggest that they get the demo (like you did).

Because I find that some people just cant get interested in it from the demo. It is a very different kindof strategy game. But IF they can get thru the demo and still like the game then I highly recommend buying it. It almost always lives on your machine for years. Other games of the same price tend to last about a month on my machines so the price of this game doesnt bother me in the slightest.

I was in the same boat, those few days between making the decision, ordering and actually getting it are a pain in the arse. You KNOW you're getting it, you still play the demo and you get really, really frustrated with the "game over".
