Does greenman deliver their pre-orders for release day? Or is it shipped on release day?

LurkingWeasel · 25 May 2013 at 17:38

Greenman is digital DL only. Don't know when they send the codes in relation to release day. Would be nice if it was the day before so you could pre-load it on Steam.

No you can pre-order the DVD version for £26.99 with them, the digital version is £33.75 with their 25% off code.

I'm clearly mixing them up with someone else then, or going mad and can't see the DVD version on their site.

Bah, I'm getting redirected. Must be a UK specific thing only.

Rome 2 now £29.99 on steam.

Do the folk who have paid £44 get their money back considering this is only a pre order?

PsychoPigeon · 3 Jun 2013 at 21:50

You can get refunds for pre orders

Cd0gz · 3 Jun 2013 at 21:58

ok thanks

McPhee · 3 Jun 2013 at 23:26

Do Steam take the money for pre-orders now? I've never pre-ordered with them before.

caff · 3 Jun 2013 at 23:56

And will the Steam price £29.99 stay there until launch, or is this just temporary for a few weeks?

LurkingWeasel · 4 Jun 2013 at 00:03

Bah, it's still €55 in the eurozone. Don't suppose that nice chap who used to buy games in UK£ on behalf of us foreign types is still about?

Edit: I remembered, it was Gimpymoo.

Kishywish · 4 Jun 2013 at 08:02

Thank the stars the price has gone down.

£45 for a pc game on release day is a dangerous precedent.

Cavallino · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:17

Yes was just about to post regarding the steam price drop.
But still £30...I am sure it will come down relatively quickly in price.
To think some of the total war games come down to single digit pounds a year or so after release?

Cd0gz · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:53

£30 is a fair price for a game I will no doubt spend 300+ hours on.

Has anyone heard anything about the co-op in Rome 2?

loved co-op in shogun 2.

E3 TRAILER!

Howitzer · 6 Jun 2013 at 14:37

Nifty little trailer!
Not much info given away though - except maybe re-enforcing their focus on characters and/or story.
I like the zoom down to the city, I wonder if there'll be something similar on the campaign map?

Illgresi · 6 Jun 2013 at 14:41

FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU...!!!!!

DAT CAMPAIGN MAP :O

bakes0310 · 6 Jun 2013 at 21:42

Awesome this game will rock.

Spangles · 6 Jun 2013 at 21:44

Campaign Map is looking fantastic. Looks more like the ones from Rome & Medieval, with a little bit more polish, which is what I was hoping for.

I want them to revert back to the Rome & Medieval 2 type game, Shogun and it's accomplishes just have not hooked me. Only stopped playing M2 about 6 months back.

On Rock Paper Shotgun, the chap mentions after the video that he sort of wants the same, which is great as it shows I am not alone. Also the old style of building & recruitment with the whole page that comes up, rather than what we have now would be appreciated.
