Anyone have any good tips on how to get a hold of a copy of Viking Invasion. I have been looking for a long time. I can buy it for 50 dollars new but I would rather not pay that much when the game didn't cost that much new.
Would gold edition be a good replacement even if I already have MTW if it is cheaper.
Who's charging $50!? That's insane, I got it for 4 pound 50.
My advice check eBay, plenty of bargains there.
I agree. Amazon has it for $28 - $35, used. Ebay looks like they have some for $5 - $12, if I'm reading it right. Half.com has it for comparable to E-bay. Google it, you gotta be able to do better than $50
Rythmic: Amazon is selling it new for $60. I don't think I bought it for that much when it first came out.
Well the only kind i can find is PAL version I hope that works with the US Medieval
I would probably get the Gold Edition, cegman; overall that's probably your best bet. As you already said, it's pretty cheap (about $20.00, I think), and that way you'll have shiny a new copy as well (as opposed to a used one).
I can't believe Amazon is charing $60.00 for Viking Invasion! That's insane.... ~:eek: :no:
Does gold still have issues with the patches?
Not anymore, they finally patched it.
Link.
I advise the Gold Edition. I got it for £7.99 back in August 2006. Probably about...$14-17 or so? So, you should be able to get it cheap these days.
The patch for Gold is the 2.01 patch, and all you do is delete the old .exe and copy and paste the new one in it's place. Or just copy and paste over the old .exe, don't think you need to do any deleting.
EDIT: Using the currency convertor online, it works out at roughly $15.65.
Yes,cegman, I d agree... with Gold you ll have the best of both worlds. Since you already have MTW, it s good as a standalone. VI only comes as an expansion so you ll have the complete package.
The patch to 2.01 works fine.
But I already have MTW without VI why would I need gold?
No.
Point is, Gold is much cheaper than VI stand-alone from what I can gauge from this topic. You might be better off with it. Will save you a heap of money.
Kaidonni hit it on the head.
With crazy prices of VI as a standalone, it would seem to be more cost effective to get the Gold Edition.
I bought VI for ca. 5€ + psotage @ ebay :)
VI is about £6.99 - £10 over here, if you can find it that is. MTW Gold is £10, but you can get it for cheaper as Kaidonni has said.
