I read on the official forums* that some Norwegian store is selling the game early. Someone who pre-ordered was told he can come pick it up tomorrow.

I believe you have to activate the game through Steam, but maybe there's a way to bypass it.

I would go crazy if I had to wait a week before I could play it. It would sit there, and the guy on the cover would taunt me.

I don't know if it's changed since I last looked but that encryption stuff via Steam has been available for a while now, all that is needed is the packed files themselves. Smile

And then when it finally unlocks your net goes down.

ME! FFS! Smile
And while you wait for it I STRONGLY recommend to watch these (copied from an earlier post of mine) Wink
Quote:
I was the same (talking about the period) But I watched "Master and Commander" and that triggered a real interest in the whole Napoleonic era.

I read (or actually listened) to all the books from Patrick O'Brian (Author of MaC), I think there is something like 24-25 books, AWESOME stuff!.

There are also loads of documentaries, TV series and films about this period, Hornblower and Sharpe's Rifles (with "Sean Bean") springs to mind.

There is also an AWESOME mini series with Christian Clavier simply called "Napoleon" IMDB LINK.

And the film Waterloo is simply EPIC! IMDB LINK Don't let the year of the film (1970) scare you, the battle scenes are the best of this era ever filmed. They used 15.000 extras (soviet army volunteers) to act out the battle!.



And remember that this is no CG rendered battle! Smile



Just recently there was a radio series on BBC 4 about Wellington. Brilliant stuff BBC Wellington

Give it a go it might spark something as well as deepen your historical interest in the period. It did me 100% good Smile.

Just a reminder, cause it's ALL GOOD! U better believe it.

This is correct. I stumbled over a netshop that showed 14 units in stock. I took a chance and ordered one and it was shipped today. So i'll have the game tomorrow. But i doubt i can activate it before 3rd march.

Aye would be awesome to see a release before the weekend. We did see Grand Ages Rome get released already, and that was slated for a release 2 days after Total War Smile

Really? So I have to install steam to place this game? Shit....oh well, its TOTALLY worth it.
Game is by far the best game of 09. Unless MGS5 comes out....E:TW will be the best.

As for those who have (or will have the game tomorrow), did some checking, cant be activated (hence played) till March 3rd.

ONLY ONE WEEK till game is out boys!!!

Already have the day booked off work (and day of release) and I talked to my girl earlier and she said she wants to learn how to play it cause ive been going on it since I preordered like 3 months ago.
She likes videogames and wants me to teach her how to play. That was a surprise.
Now I really can't wait....my favourite game (next to MGS) and my girl wants to play/learn.
Talk about girl of your dreams lol Very Happy

This is going to be the longest week of my life lol Feels like Im 8 years old and there is a week to Xmas lol Smile

EDIT

A release either before Friday or on Friday, Saturday or Sunday would be.....no words can express lol Smile
Hell, I check this site from work a few times a day just to see if its been released.

I've never wanted a game so badly. A few extra days of practise (so I can kick Cox's ass and anyone else who buys the game in Mplayer) would be extremely good.

And if I recall correctly, TW games usually come out atleast 5 days before they hit stores.

EDIT 2

I asked this before but it seems more people have decided to buy to the game.
So, if your buying E:TW, write post that your buying it (Dude4 is buying game) and I will add you to my list so we can all get together and team up and have battles...an NFOHump clan if you will.
So please, post if your buying the game (even if you've posted before cause I may have not seen the post and added to the list).
Here's the list of people who are buying

SycoShaman - Buying Game - Online Play
Vaifan1986 - Buying Game - Online Play
fraich3 - Buying Game - Online Play
gingerninjaaaaaa Buying Game - Online Play
Hubu - Buying Game - Online Play

please follow the same outline when you post. Thanks Smile

Agreed (to an extent)...but considering I just got a raise to 52.50/h and ive been working 12-15 hour shifts for the last 2 weeks, I think and deserve 2 days off and I have plenty of cash plus my girl makes more than I do.

But I agree in the sense if your in a low paying job, its not worth it.
