Although the game officially shipped on Friday (according to EB games) my local EB store, Wal-Mart, Target, Bes Buy, and Gamestop have either never heard of it, or haven't recieved it yet.

What's the deal with this? I can't find the game in stock within 100 miles! My local EB guy thinks that he might have some copies on Tuesday or Wednesday, but he seemed unsure of himself.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? It's extremely frustrating, as I've been looking forward to this game for quite some time.

Maybe Paradox should make it available for download.

Easy to buy from Paradox directly

I got it from Paradox one week ago! To buy direct from them works the same way as any other transaction over the internet - as Amazon or anybody else, possibly even faster since they have it in stock :D .

My residence (Denmark) proved, for once, favorable in this matter.

I preordered and recieved it on the 5th, the day after the release.

Youre lucky, I preordered it, took extra time off work for it, but I'm still waiting.

:mad:

When did you get it?

You are not alone my friend. ;)
I preorder from Paradox and not receive DD so far.
Maybe Taiwan is too far away from Sweden. :(

Paradox games always take forever to get to the US. I think Canada is to blame. Look at some of the other posts, St. John's had lots of copies only a few days after the release. It looks like they highjack the shipments. :D

As far as buying online, I am not alone in finding that the risks are too great.

Anyways, there is no need to be in a hurry. Until the 1.2 patch comes out, it is not very playable.
