I heard that PTW was recently released in Sweden and Finland. Does anyone know if the version sold in these countries includes the patch? If not, what took them so long?

I believe the length of time involved with the Nordic release has to do with the "language" for the game.
I would be very surprised if the Swedish/Finnish version is patched out of the box though...
On a side note: I will be traveling to Sweden this July for 3 weeks to visit some friends/pick-up a new Vovlo SUV in Goethenborg.

I bought PTW in Australia last week and it came prepatched. So that does explain some of the delay in getting it released there.Comment

Ah, thanks for the clarification Merepatra. So I guess the Swedish/Finnish release will most likely also be prepatched then.

The language is English (I hope). So what is different from the English version?Originally posted by Wittlich

Can you afford a VOLVO SUV? That's the most expensive car they (Volvo) ever made. The delivery time was long even before a transport ship with several months of production sunk in the English Channel. Did you order the car already? Don't they ship it to where you live?So get your Naomi Klein books and move it or I'll seriously bash your faces in! - Supercitizen to stupid students

Actually, my partner's father (he's a retired doctor) is the one actually buying the car. Volvo offers a package deal - a free trip to Sweden for 2 people to pickup the car. Then Volvo will ship the car back to the States (price of shipping is included in the price of the car). My partner's father could not make the trip because his wife is sick, so my partner and I will be "making the sacrifice" and going to pickup the SUV for him....and since we have friends in Goethenbrg, we've decided to make the free trip a vacation for us.
We have already ordered the SUV and will physically pick it up at the Goethenborg Volvo factory on 04 July.
Yes, the Vovlo SUV is not cheap - but then again, considering other luxury SUVs, it's not that expensive. I believe my partner's father will be paying around $55,000.00 for it. It is a very impressive automobile!

I think I remember hearing about some other PtWs being released (ones that took a while) prepatched to v1.14f. I believe the Spanish one will be patched, so probably if the Swedish/Finnish ones haven't been released they will too be prepatched.
OT: $55,000.00 USD
. That's about $82,797.00 CA up here! What, exactly, is your partner's father's occupation?

If there is another delay, I might use a P2P network to get a cracked version. Why would they deserve my money?
