Put it on their own site without waiting lines of an hour and limited speed? Or find a reliable non-scummy website to host it on.

I agree, FP is total POS - they should use something better (Steam, torrents etc.)

For a total POS, it's also extremely popular and is sure to bring HOI3 to the attention of its users.

If you can't possibly stand to download it from Fileplanet.. then simply wait a little longer and get it from somewhere else.

I don't mind downloading it from FilePlanet as long as I don't have to pay for a subscription to download it, like you apparently have to for the preload.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Fortunately, the download will be available to free accounts. You will have to register though.

That's no problem for me.

I've got an account on like every site that offers demos, even if I can't remember the sites' names.

There are a lot of things popular that shouldn't be. Fileplanet used to install spyware on your PC with it manager. I'm not sure if they still do it but, fool me once...

Strange that PI would actually do business with such a questionable website.

 

[vertinox]

Hrm... So the demo only lets you play for 6 months? Or 40 minutes?

Am I reading that wrong?

PI, Blizzards, Relic and pretty much every other company that creates games works together with fileplanet ... just because you think the site is "questionable" doesnt make it so ...

I realise this, but obviously there was some benefit to Paradox to go with Fileplanet.

Paradox is a business. They can't be our cuddly friend all the time, although I would certainly be as happy as anyone if they decided in the future to partner with a different site.

Probably because they get a percentage of the revenue. Doesn't make it right at all.

 

[rommel_sniper]

demos are meant to attract new customers, not to satisfy pre-ordered people.

4 months starting in late 1939

yeah, fileplanet probably PAYS publishers to host files that are free to download from a ton of other sites ... that really makes sense... o
