Re: Why Not Digitial Distribution?
Im amazed that anyone thinks "its pirated so why bother" works as an argument. Thats like "thieves get in so why lock your doors"
Besides there are many pros and cons of DD.
You should see the impact on Shrapnels servers when a new patch is released.
Can you imagine the load when a long awaited full version sequel.
Even the demo of such a game is a problem and thats with many other servers helping make it available.
Also, one of the many requests for DD comes from people overseas who dont like to wait or dont like the questionability of their postal service. Do you think that overseas download will help that or create a digital version of the same problems. And as Ive said, tracking broken downloads to allow restarts is a major problem.
