SE4 1.49 to SE4/Gold ... ?

Pax · #1 July 6th, 2002, 02:32 AM

Forgive the newbie, but I have a question I hope the answer to will be "yes" ...

Other than purchasing an entire new copy of the game, is there any way to upgrade pre-Gold copies of SE4 to SE4/Gold ... ?

Sorry, no way to upgrade!

You must buy SE:IV Gold...

However, owners of pre-Gold are elibible for a rebate on Gold.

True, but after five months, I still haven't received mine. *Sigh*

(Yes, I've emailed them.)

Actually, this is a common occurance with rebates. They take forever, the excuse being they didn't expect such a huge response. But I applied for the rebate with eyes open.

Well, I don't own the copy I'm using, it's a loaner from a friend who's moved on to other things (in return for loaning him my SMAC/Alien Crossfire XPac

-- so the rebate wouldn't be entirely honest of me to claim.

I like it enough I'll probably be buying a copy anyway -- probably, umm ... in september (bills in july, g/f's birthday in august ...). But waiting until then to be able to even start in a Gold-Version game will hurt.

Oh well, c'est la vie. Thanks muchly for the replies, folks.
