Lets hope we have to find out! 500 would be great for Matrix as the first day order total.

Status: offline 		Guys,

Please just wait a little longer, we have not yet made the official announcement. If there are any glitches for those who have started their downloads already, you may have to redownload. Caveat emptor. Thanks.

I don't know why DR can't keep these things invisible, but they seem to be having some issues. The problem is that we stil need to do a few more steps from outside the store to guarantee that everything will work properly for you and be properly registered after download.

Regards,

- Erik

My nightmare is 500 invalid orders now thanks to DR not keeping this in the private section of the store until done, which means possibly 500 customer support requests over the next day to resolve order issues. Let's hope not.

Regards,

Can't blame you for trying.

I for one am waiting. Not for honor, not for glory, but because I'm still stuck at work for 2 hours!

No real point in downloading it here.

DVD package? Is there an actual paper manual? Cool fold out poster? Special coupons for
10% off StarShatter?

Status: offline 		Hi,

The graphics glitches on the main page are a cache issue which will work its way through the DR servers. From my testing, the US WitP ordering seems to be working fine now with CD on demand supported. We are still putting the international WitP orders up next, but I wanted to keep you all posted. In general, I'd say it's safe to order from the US store at this point and will be soon from the UK and other stores.

I'll post a huge announcement and a press release when all stores are fully ready.

Regards,

- Erik
