NTW Update, May 5

[Forward Observer]

As somebody explained over at the TW forum, the DLC is loaded into your files whether you decide to purchase it or not. If you purchase it then it, is simply unlocked. However, I noticed that even though I haven't purchased it, my main menu now shows that my game is updated to version 1.10, which is what they do when they normally load a patch. Of course then Empire is still showing version 1.5 even though the last update to the BAI was called update 1.6.

It's a bit confusing to say the least.

At only $3.50 US, the new DLC isn't very expensive, but all it brings are 6 new units and the battle of Friedland. However, the person who made the statement about the download also stated that if you purchase it, you can now only multiplay with people who also pay for it. I am skeptical about this since it would seem to really divide up the multiplayer community--- not to mention how would it affect drop in battles.

I'm sure the true details will be revealed shortly.

Cheers
