I'm still a bit wary about the fact that so little 'hard' information is out about Civ4 so close to its release - it smells so much like a rush release, but maybe they're just playing it cool and keeping things close to their chest to surprise everyone.

Of course, every time I think that before I've been wrong

But in any case, you can be sure they'll patch it until it works right.

I just hate that $49 price tag - should be $39 like everything else. If they weren't milking the Sid name you can bet it wouldn't sell for $49.

darn those >20$ shipping costs for overseas is just not worth it

any chance of somebody in the US ordering the "bible-editions" and sending it to us euros?

They were told certain features would be in the game, they bought the game based upon those promises, then key features which are expected in every modern game (like multiplayer) didn't end up in the release version. That's just wrong so I will not preorder anything from this company.

To be honest, the absence of MP was announced well ahead of release, giving people plenty of time to cancel their preorders. But I can certainly see your point, I never ever preorder anythng myself. In fact, I never even make the decision on whether or not to buy a game until it's been out for a while, Civ4 is the only exception (CtP2 would've been as well, except that I got my copy for free so I didn't have to decide anything )

[MarkG]

[Drakan]

What about those of us who preordered at EB games using Poly's link ?

[MarkG]

and yes, since this offer is not new, if you have already bought something from our Chips&Bits links, you should be pm-ing me right now with your order id, date and item(s)

Our Chips&Bits affiliate stats show that people are starting to pre-order civ4 and I'd like to remind them (and everyone ) for our "Chips&Bits/Apolyton Store" offer

It's simple: we give you or friend of yours a free month(or more!) of ApolytonPLUS for every purchase you make from the Apolyton Store or Chips&Bits

The process is easy:
a) make the purchase through the links listed above
b) contact us with the following details: order id, date, item(s) you bought. Dont forget to tell us if you want to add your free month to your existing subscription or if (especially if you're a Lifetime member) you want to make it a gift to a friend.

What you get:
1) On Apolyton Store purchases, 1 month of PLUS subscription for each item purchased
2) On Chips&Bits purchases, 1 month of PLUS for each 20$ spent (so purchasing a 40$ game will give you 2 months of PLUS)
