Redan -> How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/17/2010 2:50:22 PM)

It's been 15 days since I ordered game and I havent received copy of game> I have had these type problems before with digital river. I paid lotsa extra money for hard copy. I write now because I got email from digital river reminding me that charges are about to appear.....fine. where is the game?

Hi Redan,

Please e-mail me at erikr@matrixgames.com with your Order ID and I can check on that with DR. I know orders have been shipping out since release, so my main concern would be that either it was lost in shipping or that it is still in transit.

Regards,

- Erik

If it's being shipped to someplace odd, maybe it was grounded due to that Iceland thing.



HsojVvad -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/17/2010 5:59:40 PM)

Do you by any chance able to download it from the internet even though you asked for a hard copy? Or because you asked for a hard copy you can't download it from the internet? Not shure how that works.



Fishman -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/17/2010 7:22:41 PM)

He should be able to download it just fine, and probably has, but some people are really fixated on physical objects.

I own about 10 or 12 Matrix games, all of them digital download and hard copy. I've always been totally satisfied, and usually it seems to take about 10 days, sometimes bit longer for my hard copies to come.



Redan -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/17/2010 9:20:29 PM)

I've downloaded it; but it is best to have a physical copy. Got email from Digital River saying theyd sent it, or implying strongly theyd sent it. If Washington DC is out of the way and off the beaten path...actually it IS the beaten path...then that would explain it. Lots of probs with digital river last few years....bought dozen games from Matrix, six problems with digital river...

You can always burn your download to CD. I generally burn several for safe keeping.



Xenoform21 -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/18/2010 6:24:56 AM)

I got the same problem over here, but it's been longer for me. Going on three weeks now, I bought it the day after release.

DC, eh? Maybe your shipment got hijacked by bandits, then. DC is a regular warzone, and unless the shipment is for some politician, it won't receive the escort it needs and may not make it through intact.

Hi... I'm joining the club... "I'm still waiting physical copy" [:D]

Ok... we have the digital one... but i'm an "old style man" [:'(] I hope Erik or someone can help us [;)]



Redan -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/18/2010 1:28:26 PM)

Eric tells me that UPS lost my physical copy. I find it's about 50-50 when I order or download software from Matrix via digital river. Something goes wrong, not usually the same thing twice. But I ALWAYS think a long time before I buy a game. Dont know if my experience is typical or Im just unlucky. It isnt as bad as 50-50 elsewhere when I buy software, but it is a consideration at all times. Matrix is honest and ethical so far as I can tell, so I continue to consider buying their products....



eltharion -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/18/2010 2:41:15 PM)

Thank's Redan... Maybe spedition need a little more menagement... or maybe... a different vector [;)]

Anyways... i hope that one day... i will have my copy [:'(]

Maybe international spedition... need more time... (but from 25th [&:] )

Xenoform21 -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/20/2010 7:29:02 PM)

Do you think you could look into mine too Erik?



Erik Rutins -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/20/2010 7:44:38 PM)

Sure, so far the previous two were lost by the shippers (UPS and the Postal Service). How long has it been since you ordered?



Xenoform21 -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/20/2010 9:02:04 PM)

I ordered on the 25th. Order Number: 1654163682 Order Date: 25-MAR-10

Kind of worried too, I opted out of the download insurance on the belief that I was going to get a hard copy.



Sliverine -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/21/2010 11:59:21 AM)

i checked my local stores and couldnt find any distributed hardcopies present for any of matrix's games. Is that due to my country not being in their coverage or that they simply dont do hardcopy retail distribution?



Redan -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/24/2010 3:38:14 PM)

Thank you! I received the back up copy on Friday! Thanks, Eric.



Okel Alran -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (4/24/2010 3:51:10 PM)

FYI, it looks like the postal service lost yours too. We shipped it out, it should have arrived by now. We shipped out a replacement copy to you by a trackable shipping method late last week.



Tacit_Exit -> RE: How long before I get hard copy of game? (5/4/2010 4:51:36 PM)

Still waiting on mine too [:(] Order Number: 1654261484 Order Date: 12-APR-10
