EU3 Collectors Edition update and questions...please use this thread

[Dr. Zoidberg]

His Imperialist American sensibilities will still take something as a beating, since the author of the manual (me) and all of the people who wrote all of the text that appears in the game use the Queen's English and not that lazy "drop-the-u-out-of-everthing-and-ketchup-is-spelled-catsup" language he's used to.

I'll scratch that mod off my list then

You've certainly gone up in my estimations now, T.

Just pre-ordered my EU3 Collectors Edition this evening and am now eagerly awaiting its arrival.
However, I have plenty of things to keep me busy with until it arrives!
But will I get distracted......... mmmmmmmmmmmyes!

Question about the Collector's Edition.

Will it be available through Retail in the United States or is only through pre-order?

 

[Registered]

It will be available, but only through one chain of stores, whose name i have forgotten, sorry.
IIRC it was some sort of Walmart clone.

EDIT: of course, since there are limited numbers available there is no guarantee you'll get one.

 

[Niptium]

Isn't it Bestbuy ?

 

[PraetorianGuard]

I read here that it would be through Target.

Target it is

 

[Wolf52]

Kind of an odd choice... theyre not known for their vast selection of computer games.

 

[unmerged(31558)]

Target?

Ok the Swedes are definitely up to something sinister.

They should work out a deal with Ikea for worldwide distribution!

 

[Duuk]

Call me paranoid, but just one small question: I ordered my CE through the webshop, what country version will I be getting? I live in the US and don't want to be disappointed and open it up when I get it and its the Swedish version. I can't read Swedish As an imperialist American I demand everything be in English! (j/k)

If I recall correctly, all of Paradox's "Swedish" versions have been in English since EU1. Someone is welcome to correct me on that though.

actually eu1 was in swedish, but the rest are in Queens English.

Whats the story with release in Australia? I assume auran is distributing, and will it be the same as North America, or two months after the fact?

You mean they give you the code and you have to assemble the game yourself?

 

[Niptium]

I still think it should be in Scots English. (EU2 terms follow)

Eh, ya bas, ye think ye can chib me pal!? ail put the heid in ye ye wee sh**e! (opponent gets CB on you)

Och come awa jeemie hes nae worth it! (Alliance member dishonours alliance)

*sounds of violence ensue*

Richt ya wee numptie, geez yer money or I'll send ye hame in an ambulance! (Player is on the win and demands money)

Wahey!! Take a swallie at the paps on that! Hey doll, fancy a swallie at ma pure Angus Beef sausage hen? (Player asks a Royal Marriage with X)

and so on.

I think it would sell well.

Not a single mention of haggis? Or kilts? Or sheep? No one in their right mind would believe what you suggested is Scotish.
