Pah! $7, thats criminal for something which I believe is freeware.
Why has there been no comment by CA about this? Because over at the terrible .com its getting very dodgy.
Well, the seven bucks is for a subscription to fileplanet, a site with reviews, early downloads of demos, etc. not for that individual demo. Rather like getting it with a subscription to PCGamer. If you want to know why they're selling demo rights to companies that charge, I imagine you'd have to ask the Sega marketing people, not the CA staff.
Not that Sega's marketing people would answer that question, because it's simply a way for them to increase their revenue stream while appearing to support the community...
I suppose you could be rigt. But why would SEGA a proud supporter of the TW community do such a thing? It cannot be!
All they care about is the money.
No you can download it free on 3dgamers, i am doing it right now.
I would but you know my computer with internet is a piece.Quote:

Thanks! Downloading..:2thumbsup:
This is only a question of planning decisions in SEGA marketing ... this week you will get the demo on .com too - for free ;) And always in the game industry on such strange ocasions the community does not count because they buy the game anyway.
Um, I can't download it without subscribing to 3D gamers @ $2.50 per month!! :wall: :wall:
There's a list of several servers. Some of them need subscription, others are free.
Scroll further down on the page.
R'as
Waiting in line, 39 minutes... *sigh*
Ah! Brilliant, thanks ~:)
Still doesnt seem to support non SS2 cpu´s though, so´ll pass
I didn't hold much hope anyway. The demo released on saturday was just illegally distributed not an early version of the demo. It will be the same for the main release despite what CA will say. Many athlon owners like myself are screwed as it will set us back a hefty price just to play the sodding game:juggle2:
Thanks for the link Oguz_Yabgu :bow:
At 0400 California time, the California server was already maxxed out; had to go to the Australian mirror. Estimated d/l time (broadband cable here) 1 hour, 54 minutes. :sigh:
Thanks, Oz! :)
Downloaded it, setup refused to work. Jay! Trying a new DL.
Anyone has an idea about SSE2 stuff? It would be weird that those major gaming websites would be publishing illegal demos on their websites. So that can we expect that CA provided a SSE-friendly revised demo ?
Based on the brief description at that 3D gamers link, they've got exactly the same demo that PC Gamer released last week (tutorial, Agincourt and Pavia), so I wouldn't expect there to be any difference between the two.
Maybe PC Gamer's "exclusive" was getting it out before the weekend?

Success. 1 hour, 58 minutes. Oh well, that gave me time to catch up with Eleanor & Co in the Mead Hall.
Installed quickly. The ReadMe still refers to an SSE2 requirement.
I can't get on the site :s
Seems like site is offline...Or maybe too much visitors atm,all downloading the demo?
legal copy of the demo available at www.utorrent.com for free... somewhere
I don't trust those torrent sites I wanna get it from a gamesite :(
And plz can anyone check if they can go on www.3dgamers.com ?
I really can't :(
got it running, quite smoothly and played it a bit.
Everyone should have a Fileplanet subscription, it costs next to nothing and you get access to loads. I get the Founders Club thingy for $19.95 a quarter so I never notice the money going ~:)
but it's bloody legal! i got it from there and it runs fine
and without a disk
Might be but I do not trust torrent sites...I guess I'll wait a bit ^^
3dgamers refuses to load :(
It won't work for me either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i suggest www.fileshack.com
fair enough... mwy mwy
btw if any of you have any doubts about... you know the fact that you cant upgrade missile on the archers, dont worry, theyve improved it so 8 can cause a ok amount of damage to inf and good damage to lightly upgwaded archers.
downloading from usenet at 470k/s
its on a.b.g for those with a decent news server
I'll be try to download from 3D Gamers (actually my friend).
Server Already At Maximum Capacity:furious3:
i just started downloading it from
http://www.vgpro.com/
you got to make a free acount first (only takes 1 min) and then it begins.
1 minor problem.
"estimated time left 11hr 50m"
should be just about done for when I wake up :2thumbsup:
wish me luck!!!
Good luck. I/my friend will probably give up.
No hassle, nice speed:
ftp://download.gamer.no/gamer.no/Medieval_2_TW_Demo.exe
Also remember, lads, Fileplanet does NOT require a subscription. You can download it for free, you just need to register at the site. No more.
I had no issues with the 3D gamers link, DL from Aus in 30mins.
But then, I'm relatively close to Aus.
i can't play that game? i installed and deinstalled the game many times but dunno...
AMD Athlon XP 2400+
512 DDRam
Ati Radeon 9550
:no:
You don't have a chip that has the SSE2 Instruction set - look at the thread that is called something like "The Would MY PC Be Able to Run M2TW thread?"Quote:
