I sat down an hour ago to check progress on the DD. I visit a thread, read a post, go back to the thread list. Each time I do this, several new posts appear, so I check them. Will you all please go away so I can go get my dinner? It's now 1830 and I've got other stuff to do this evening.......like get out the map of the Pacific Theatre and plan............and possibly have a beer.

I'm at work doing the same thing. I think we all need to see somebody about our problem.

This is how it's going to be for awhile, I think. It's the same way over on the HOI/HOI2 forums, and WitP is going to nearly as popular, I think. We wargamers are a chatty (loud-mouthed?) bunch. Check out the heated arguments over the serial numbers of the P-40's who were enroute to the PI on December 7th - great fun!

You're right. Let's see the people from Matrix and Digital River first......al of us at once.

Aelbric - The first step is admitting you have a problem, and I see this brought you out of "Lurker" status as well! Well done and welcome to the forum! Has anybody else noticed how many of us newbies / former lurkers are all over this board lately? It is a great thing to see. This thing is going to set the standard for computer wargames.

Ok now back to checking the Matrix store for any new arrivals.

The craze is definitely caused by the Lurkers unlurking. Kind of like the 17-year cicada: it only emerges when a game is released.

LOL, how true!

I've been reading these forums for a year on and off. All of a sudden I'm checking them every hour on the hour. I can't wait.

Well, back to my PacWar game. See you all in 60!

Yo. Be careful. You will be able to download the game when Matrix is ready, which we hope is in the next day or two. There are a couple of threads from about a week ago that explained a lot about the expected download process, bandwith, etc. I'd suggest checking those older threads out - they were very detailed.

One is "WitP Download." But if you go back a week or so, you'll see a lot of threads on DD. Just scan the threads about four pages back - they're not hard to spot.

Well, THIS INDEED IS CRAZY !!!

I'm a new guy here and am not really interested in this game (seems way out of my ability), am just waiting for BiN (), but have been following this forum the last few day and you guys really need a forum shrink. No offence intended but some of you are going over the top

Anyway, I feel for you...

You haven't been waiting for what 15 years? since the original computer PACWAR!
Or for the past 2 years since this was announced.

I go away...I eat...I come back...and it's all still crazy. Release the game and save us all some energy spent banging on keyboards.

Pacwar was an absolute classic for its day....but WITP is its massive modern brilliant big brother...and will be the game of the century.

the increased abilities of the current computers against what a computer was like when pac-war came out is what a factor of 10 or 20 .
