Hither and anon?

Seriously, I'd rather have it done and done right then the typical and reprehensible practice of many game publishers of shoving any unfinished pos with glitzy cover art and a handful of lies on the back of the box out the door with the intension of picking the pocket of the gameing community.
I must admit that I have suffered from this policy of consumer theft so often, that I (much to my present regret and shame) accused this company and these designers of the same thing when this games precurssor came out (Erik, Doomtrader, Anraz, I dont think that I ever publicly apologised to ya'll for that. You have proved me wrong, and wrong, and wrong again. I am sorry.)
As a beta tester for this game, and as a grognard of thirty five years experience, I can tell you that as much as the designers want to get you this game, and as much as we want to play it, they're going to be sure that it will do what it is designed to do, and it will do it right the first time if they have to hairlip the UN to do it (as we say here in Texas!)
So take a deep breath and stay icy -- there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm actually REALLY tempted to go ahead and pick up the old version, given the option to upgrade for FREE (!?!?!, I'm still reeling from Matrix's generosity) when the new one comes along. The old version looks quite good and engaging, and it would give me a taste of what to expect in the future.

But I still am leery... seriously... If I buy the first game, even now... I can get ToW for freeeeee?

Any official word?

However, Gamersgate is listing WWII: ToW as "coming soon" on July 16!? Does that mean we might see this tomorrow?

I saw that same ad last night. I couldn't find the download then but its there now!

Maybe the ad traveled through time?

Thank You Matrix and all the devs and beta testers!

And my wife thanks you for ruining her weekend!

That's very odd, should be the same price. I'll find out if that's our issue or theirs.

Yes, it was in the private downloads area of the members area.

Status: offline 		Ok, the pricing difference was our mistake. We just bumped our price down to $34.99 Download / $44.99 Physical, same as on GG. If you ordered at the original $39.99/$49.99 price here and would like your five bucks back, please e-mail me at erikr@matrixgames.com with your order info. Sorry for that!

Status: offline 		DR appears to have introduced some kind of glitch to the download and digital+physical setup which is having the download actually add the digital+physical and the digital+physical adds the download (at the physical price).

My apologies for this, we are working with them to get this fixed immediately.

Berkut, we're looking into this pricing issue as well. As far as I know $34.99 is the correct download price, if I'm wrong and it's $29.99 then we'll match that. I'm sorry you couldn't wait until we sorted this out as we are the ones working with the developer and supporting previous customers, GG is just another distribution channel for this release.

Regards,

- Erik

Actually, I've never ordered from them before - I did so simply because they had it available, and you did not, and I am leaving for NYC today for the weekend, and wanted to make sure I got it before I left! Otherwise I would be stuck and forced to play some other games all weekend while my wife blows massive cash shopping or whatever.

Turns out we are not leaving when I thought we were, so it didn't matter after all. And now I feel bad for buying from someone else. :(
