Let me tell you, I'm about ready to make a little voodoo doll of CA and rip its head off.

Not in the mood to explain it.
But a demo is good news, especially a pre-release one.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Looking forward to it! Skipped Napoleon but eager to get back into things with Shogun 2!
Cheers!

I'm guessing Steam.

How about a little hint as to what in the world has you going all voodoo on CA? :inquisitive:

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Now hopefully my PC can handle the demo. :clown:

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
It seems every article I read on the STW2 site features the line:
"by perfecting the features from previous games such as full 3D land and naval battles and a detailed campaign map"
Not exactly what I was hoping for. If the thing you're most proud of about your upcoming strategy game is that it features full 3D (OMG!!!) land battles, something is very, very wrong.
Still, yay demo!
Also, hi .org, it's been a while.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Im rather exited about the demo.Cant wait to try it out. Also wellcome back Dead Guy!:bow:

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Is pever's (surprising) animosity to CA due to a staggered launch or availability of Shogun2? i.e. like Mass effect 2 (i think). That would certainly tick me off.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Perhaps Australia isn't getting some of the special editions.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
***BUMP***
Demo available in about 2 hours based on GMT? That's the speculation.
-
Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
There go any plans for sleep tonight.
-
Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
I'm so excited! :D I am going to download it as soon as I can!
-
Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
But the other speculation is that the game will be released when the Steam offices open in Seattle WA at 9:00am PST tomorrow.
Well. I am on the Steam site now and no demo.
-
Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Looks like no demo tonight. I will now cry like a brokenhearted schoolgirl and suck my thumb as I fall asleep.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Its only the afternoon of the 22nd here, why would you get it on the 21st?
-
Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Yeah, it's most likely 5pm GMT today (the 22nd). Soo, in about 6 hours or so, + DL and installation, we will get a first peek at this baby.

Yup, sounds right. CA confirmed on their twitter.

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
hmm to wait up or not that is the question

Re: Demo out on 22 February 2011
Well I think I will be able to play just tomorrow, I don't see how thousands of players will be able to download the demo in the same time

I'm kind of glad I won't even start downloading it until about 15 hours after its released due to work.

Yup. Wish they would have done that yesterday to kill all the speculation.
About 2 hours 45 minutes to go.

Not too worried about that - as I was browsing Steam yesterday the status page showed 2.3 MILLION users logged on. Methinks they have quite a bit of server capacity.

Yeah, but its always terrible when a big name title is getting downloaded at release. Especially when there is no pre-loading.
E:TW release was a nightmare.
