hmm i cant find any paradox games in USA but this one anyone know if they ever will ship semper fi to Bestbuys or gamestop?

i played game at cousins.
 
I got a German copy of HOI3 from amazon.de, but there doesn't seem to be a German version of Semper Fi. The game is practically unplayable without Semper Fi. Are you planning a German release?

you can get the german version everywhere it is always included. you can change the language in the settings.txt.
but there is no boxed version of semper fi yet. i suggest you use gamersgate.
 
Game doesnt sell SF and never will according to the staff. Ive been in there to ask about it. They only sell the budget version of HOI3 cause its a specialist game. They also say they wont sell SF as it should be a free patch not an expansion. PC world said the same thing. As those r the only 2 shops in my area that sell new games i cant get a copy of SF to try it out for myself. I have the boxed version therefore need the boxed version of SF.

why post this everywhere?
there is no boxed version of semper fi nor is one planed at the moment?
you dont need a boxed version every non steam version works as far as i know.
and it is a patch not an expansion!!

You know it wouldn't harm if you would actually read what people post. You now have stated the above several times and each time you got a response saying that you don't need a boxed version of SF (simply because there isn't one) if you have a boxed version of HoI3.

f.e. here is a post by you from 8-7-2010

Ive got HOI3 but gave up on it. i keep going back to HOI2 cause i think its a far better game. Maybe it will be better with SF but as i acnt get a copy as no shops will stock it. until it comes out on a budget label. all the shops say its a patch to fix the game not an expansion therefore should be free. as i have the boxed version i have to get the boxed expansion. But i found that HOI3 V1.0 worked better than it did with the patches. the more patches i tried the more unplayable it was. i never had any bugs in V1.0 but have loads in 1.4. But as mine was on a budget label maybe they fixed the bugs before selling it and the patches just put the bugs back in. But for now im sticking with HOI2 armmageddon its the best game ive ever played by a long way. Ive had it since it 1st came out and still enjoy playing it unlike HOI3 and europa universalis 1 2 and 3 which i think r the worst ive played. tried victoria as well thats not to bad just cant win with it. just keep losing every battle even when i out number the enemy 10 to 1. so HOI2 will be played all the time till HOI3 is finally fixed and has a real expansion not just a patch released as an expansion.

And here are the responses to that post

Who told you that? The shop-owners? AFAIK, there is no boxed expansion. If you want to buy something from a guy, and he cant offer it, dont believe everything he says. I have a boxed version and bought ´semper fi´ from gamersgate.

I think he is basing himself on this post



Where we are told to buy our expansion from the same outlet where we bought the original game. This of course is only true if you have bought it from a downloadsite and not if you have the boxed version.

Other people also read in that post that you need to contact the company where you have bought the boxed version to ask about the expansion. Which is also not correct, what is meant is that you need to contact the company where you want to buy the expansion.

I already asked Susana to clarify this post a bit.

So for the final time, there is no boxed version of SF, if you want SF you will have to buy one from f.e. Gamersgate.
 
Not anytime soon. There is a sticky on where to buy. But my guess is that until they bundle it with HOI3 you won't see it on store shelves.

I went to Game Stop and asked about the game Semper Fi...they had it in another store, and had it shipped to my locale. Yesterday, I paid and brought it home....lo and behold it was a first shooter marine corps game! I would give it to my 7 yo daughter for her b'day, however, I would receive a very evil look from my wife and inlaws.

lol xD

Semper Fi is download only I believe.
 
Perhaps if I edited the game program...and turned the marine squad into Dora the Explorer and her gang....and the weapons shoot jello.....that might work. :p

Nah, you only need to swap the guns to walky-talkies ;)
 
How slow is your connection? as far as I know it is only a few mb? Even quite a slowish connection should be able to handle it.

That depends. I wouldn't say 117 MBs are a few :)
 
Kind of awkward question... I bought HoI3 thanks to a thread in this forum, about 2 months ago. The thread adviced where to get HoI3 around 6$. There was a link to that online game store (uk I think). I bought the game here. Now, my friends want to buy it too, but, for the love of God, I can't find that store now, and the thread is gone. Does anyone here have any idea where I did buy the game?:eek:o

EDIT: I found the thread (thanks Slan), the store was http://www.direct2drive.co.uk/ but it's no longer available for this price. I guess I was lucky that I bought it back then:)

I have been searching for a Hearts of Iron III/HoI: Semper Fi bundle pack (I refuse to buy them seperately), but I can not find any website that supposedly offers it that works. Is there such a bundle out there? Or are the websites that claim to sell the bundle just full of crap?
