Geez, you aren't fussy are you? It sounds like there's going to be a whole bunch of additions to the game and you're whining about one small detail? This is going to be a much better expansion pack than PTW by the sounds of it.

I'm not 'whining' about anything dickhead! For the most part, the changes with C3C are cosmetic. A great number of the additions to C3C have been implemented in the mods that other players have already completed (including the submarine and hidden nationality land units that we played around with nearly a year ago). I'm looking for more substantive changes to the game than adding another wonder or unit. Re-working the combat system to at least allow for combat unit specialities is an important (minimum) change for me.

I agree, though I'll still get it. Locked alliances are what I was hoping for.

Oh lighten up! You must be pretty much impossible to be around if you get your girdle in a knot that easily. You might want to consider taking an anger management course or two if you're that bloody sensitive about some lame comment. If my intention was to insult you, I could do a much better job than that.

They don't want to pay the money and then not have the title there when the window they paid for is open.

Are you saying they (publishers) have to pay (rent) shellves space??

Never knew that...

[WarpStorm]

Yes, alva, that is exactly what I am saying.

I didn't know that either.

So far Conquests is looking great though I think I will be holding off until I hear what the people on the forum have to say.

[Gramphos]

Didn't know that either... sounds a little strange as the shops would be interested in selling the game as well...

[sabrewolf]

shops want to sell all games. a lot of people go shopping without knowing exactly what to buy.
so if C3C is either at the entrance with a big "NEW" written on it or stuffed somewhere in the back between the other strategy games, most spontainious buyers will take it more likely

[Gramphos]

Yes, you might be right on that, but it's mor important for the Chrismas market than otherwise.

Of course it's finished. It's less than a month before release date, all the disks have been burned and packaged already. Any further changes will be dealt with in a patch.

Don't think they have already cds and boxes ready,usually software houses are used to have everything ready 1 week before the product hit the shelves,and late October seems to me quite optimistic,I would bet within November.

And you won't be sure it ships as 'ready'. There will always be patches

Patches are the core success of nowdays games,if they are a lot,good,strong and flexible and if they all come within first 6 months after the release,the game will be a success for sure.

Gunter, I'll take that bet. I bet it will be released on October 28th just like all the distribution websites say it will.
