Wow, ARMA I and ARMA II for $7 Canadian after exchange. I need to take advantage of the EU/UK stores more often!

You can buy that with a non-EU/UK credit card?

 

[brain_stew]

Paypal.

I tried searching to see if I will be able to come up with something but nope, sorry.

Thanks bud,

I'll probably just get the uncensored version anyway. I can always get 1 of the many copies on goozex later to satisfy the packaging whore in me.

 

[Vallarfax]

Anyone bought the guild wars trilogy know if you're able to add the expansions onto your original copy of the game? I reinstalled my copy last night to make sure my toons were still around and sure enough they are. Only thing that would suck is if the game and expansions in the trilogy are all locked into one super registration code.

Also....more than 4 character slots without paying for additional with the expansions?

 

[Slavik81]

I'm thinking about the Guild Wars, never purchased an MMO, just played a few times at my friend's place and stuff.

How are the graphics for the game now? Are there still people playing this game?

I'm pretty sure it's just one code. I'm in your boat. >.<

Well I just found this thread which apparently states that whatever you have would remain and you would just get the benefit of the new content i.e. expansions, goty content, etc. I'm thinking I might just go ahead and make an entirely new account. I could use my one lvl 20 monk to heal my low characters through a bunch of stuff if I dual box the game. I haven't played in over 3 years and I'm coming from WoW so the controls feel weird, but since quitting WoW I'm in an MMO mood and need something to fill the void. This will do until cataclysm lol.

I just did it tonight. It adds what you don't already have. Just go to "Edit My Account" and add the key. Simple.

 

[Slavik81]

Gah. I have two accounts. One is missing Nightfall, and one is missing Factions.
Though it's still not a bad deal...

I'm literally sitting at the accept screen after choosing to merge the prophecies account with the new trilogy code and it is only saying I will gain 2 additional character slots. Can you confirm that in total I will have 8 available slots and not 6?

 

[Dipper145]

How are people buying arma 2/gold with paypal? I use it and it tells me that

"Error: ArmA Gold Collection is Country restricted on your IP."

I can't give you 100% as I bought it just before i came to work. However, when I took a quick glance it looked like 6.

For anyone that is interested I did a little research and NCSoft reps have been quoted stating that the 2 additional is in error. You will have 8 total slots with the trilogy, whether you're adding it onto a prophecy only account, or an account with the expansions.

Sweet. I have one character. That's good though and glad you could find it.

Hmm, I didn't have any problems (U.S.). Where are you at?

 

[panda21]

arma 2 singleplayer is fucking surreal. i got shot, mysteriously came back to life with some dudes standing with their hands up surrendering next to me, then encountered invisble enemies that according to the hud markers appeared to be about 1 ft tall, and on completing the objectives my ai buddies ran off over the horizon never to return instead of going to the extraction point.

Have you patched it?

 

[panda21]

up to the latest official patch..

still, not complaining, it was all quite entertaining even if it made no sense :lol

:lol Sounds amazing.

They have raised the price of ArmA Gold back to normal now too. I should have bought it sooner

I'm in Canada, so maybe that's it? But that other guy said he picked it up and he's from Canada so that can't be it...

[Baloonatic]

Damn, I really want Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI but I'm in the UK. Is there a way around it?

 

[19Kilo]

Civ4 Complete is only 4,95 € on the EU store. Nice.

 

[GHG]

Bit of a meh week. Only good deal out of those is Civ4 complete.

Will wait to see what next week brings. Only bought The Club and Arma Gold so far. Not as good as steam sales .

 

[UrbanRats]

What? Civ4 not available for Italy in the EU? :lol WTH?

Anyway, how does those restriction works? I've seen Il-2 Sturmovik on the US store, can i buy it or not?

 

[19Kilo]

Error: Civilization 4: The Complete Edition is Country restricted on your IP.

Looks like they've cracked down a bit. Guess I should just feel lucky for grabbing the arma gold deal last week before they fixed it.

 

[19Kilo]

I love how their "10UNDER$10" section at the bottom actually only has 4 titles under $10 :lol

 

[Danneee]

Nice! I've been waiting for Railroads to drop.

 

[KittyKittyBangBang]

Bought SupCom Gold but having problems downloading it. After I get to around 2GB into the download I get an error that stops the download. I guess I need to get the official D2D downloader but I have bought half a dozen games off of D2D and never had any problems.

Anyone else having downloading issues? With my janky-ass home network it is probably an issue on my end

 

[poppabk]

If I purchase a game from the US that is only available in the US/Can/Mex, can I give it as a gift to someone in the UK?
Edit: and looking at the list for the UK spring sale, can you also do this from the UK to the US.

 

[Edgeward]

I guess now is the time to take the Civ plunge and try it out.

 

[sweetvar26]

I wish I can buy Torchlight and link it to my STEAM profile instead.

 

[scitek]

Been wanting The Saboteur! Damn you D2D! My wallet hates thee!!! :lol

 

[KittyKittyBangBang]

I wish I can buy Torchlight and link it to my STEAM profile instead.

you should be able to do that just fine, I have done that with many D2D games

 

[fresquito]

Hi, I've never used D2D, but I've been looking forward to buying CivIV and this is such a good moment. Now, I have some doubts. How's DRM in this place? How many times can I download a game? Can I link my games to Steam? What's good and what's not about D2D?

Thanks in advance.

 

[Roofy]

Does anyone know if you can buy Civ4 from D2D and (you get a key im assuming) load it into your steam games list?

i want to bite for that price but i want to keep all my PC games within steam

 

[slamskank]

Nothing for me this week, phew.

D2D adds no additional DRM. You can not link your games to Steam unless they are only a Steam game (MW2 and such).

You can add it to your list of games in steam as a non-steam game, and if you launch it through steam then the steam overlay should work. It will lack pretty pictures in the steam client and you won't be able to download it from within steam however.

 

[fresquito]

You can at least launch them from Steam, can't you?

 

[Peronthious]

You can launch any application from steam.

 

[Goldrush]

A Koei strategy game on sale?! Considering the game is still going for full price+ on the PS2, this is a great deal.

Add as non-steam game.

 

[Shaneus]

Oh for fuck's sake, now I can't even buy Civ4 in Australia? At least I know now that it's a distribution thing and not a ratings thing. But still...

I could gift it to you?

Just PM me for my Paypal address if you're interested.

 

[faceless007]

I've heard that Civ IV has a really active modding community that greatly enhances the game. Does the D2D version support mods?

Chrome hates D2D for me. Firefox downloads them with no problem, and the D2D downloader is a fine tool, but also for whatever reason has problems with Chrome.

Are you running Chrome when you try to download?


Also,

I don't own Civ4. Never played it. I'm loving Tropico 3...

 

[Karram]

I was going to buy Civ 4 but I couldn't due to the region restrictions thing.

I'd much rather just use Comrade, works great and creates an install link, boxart and keycode of new purchases when I make them.

Bought CIV IV for £5 great deal considering it includes both expansion and Colonization.
