Demo?

[Johan]

There will be a demo, but I would not play HoI3 on any pc that has a graphicscard with less than 256mb.

Try the demo when its out though, you may be able to enjoy it, but I'm not sure it would start.

Is there a set release day for the demo? (Running for cover expecting a loud NO )

this summer?

 

[Johan]

Hey, we now know 2 things officialy:

1. There will be a Demo.

2. It will come out between now and 7th of August



Thanks

actually, we said "this summer" on 2, so in theory it could be anytime before the summer ends..

(Which is like mid september here in Stockholm, but in Luleå it was a week ago..)

And a sequel to wonderfully written book. Eastern front since Stalingrad to Berlin in the form of something like real short stories taken form letters sent home or diaries of generals and common soldiers combined with historical docuents. I've read a lot of historical books dealing with all eras of human history, but nothing was so interesting to read as Operation Barbarossa. Wonderful stuff...

...written by an SS man who was in Goebbels Propaganda ministery during the war. Its not a bad read, but that should be remembered always when dealing with Carell.

Not to mention he has like no footnotes. Interesting don't you thinik

a proper historian he is not.

 

[Archangel85]

Let's say he is not official historian. His book had pretty much good reviews. And btw. how do you want to make footnotes, when you use never published personal sources?

Take a look at how Steven Ambrose did it. And he isn't just using unpublished accounts, he is also regulary painting "the bigger picture" without stating his sources.
(btw, personal highlight: He claims there were black soldiers amongst the american paratroopers that landed in Normandy, years before the army was integrated.)

It would be great to at least know WHEN will be demo released .

TBH, I don't have a date that is 100% guaranteed.

I will not give out dates that I can't give out.

I'm hoping early next week, but doubt we can do it on monday.
