Aussie Buyer

Howdy

This is my first post and I have been following the game eagerly and have been thinking about purchase till I found out its not out yet ( a common issue with living down here) I was wondering if there is any hope that theres some beta or is there a more definite time for when the demos coming out to have some skills at release.

Yeah Seriously. I loaded up my pre-paid Visa and DL'd it as soon as it was available.

I'm also living in Australia.

YAY! go us!!!! anyway, i got it posted to me as well as the digi-download. I was playing it before the disk came, having fun and all, and it arrived a few days ago. Although i was already playing it, it was still like i just got it for the first time. i was so happy. still am lol.

BTW, prezo, hows the mod going? i started playing BFG, BTW, ive got 4 IN cruisers, and ive put magnets in them so i ca change around the modules. Are you with Port Maw yet? its a BFG fan site. If you join, i can show you my step by step guide on magnetising your cruisers, and show you pictures of my completed fleet. if u dont join, heres the linky to my photos anyway.

Why do you need the real thing? What is really preventing you to download the game?

Like Prezo/Chang said, you get the box shipped and the download options.

Auran was going to publish in Australia around April? But I've read the news that they caved in and all that, so I don't know if there was any change of plans. You'd really best get it from SD directly Faster, and you probably still get the CE

Please note that you can download the game to as many PCs as you like with your Stardock acount (just log into your account from your brother's PC and dowload as usual). A single serial (which is emailed to you) is good for two PCs in a LAN - just not to play together online.

I bought two serials and it works fine on 4 PCs - I just logged into my account on each one and dowloaded the game. Right click on the game in the Stardock list to update the serial. Easy.

Download is the way to go, it really is. It downloads in the time it would have taken you to go to the shop.

No, one key is enough for a 2-player LAN Online multiplayer needs unique keys, though.
