That is great but can you tell me when the game will be out? And if we can order US version? The store link did not give that info.

Gonna send it worldwide? Brazil perhaps?

Yep. If the postal system works, we deliver.

Any info on whether other payment methods, like bank deposits, are going to be aviable?

Our plans is to go "gold" in the beginning of March. Fredrik knows better how fast it takes to print and ship it, but I doubt it will reach you later than the end of march/early patril.

Any chance of you accepting PayPal rather than direct credit card payment? I know another European company, Egosoft, offered the PayPal method when opening up their title, X-2: The Threat, for global sale, to great success, as it allows not only credit card payment, but check, bank account deduction, and several other methods, all guaranteed by PayPal and with more safe-guards for both buyer and seller than you can shake a stick at.

The same shipping price wordwide? And the descrimination of the product (because of import taxes)?

 

[Dinsdale]

Great idea!

Good news that the fora provided some good feedback for you folks!!

Currently we only have support for creditcards, but paypal is among the solutions we are looking to for the future.

who will pay for the postservices?

 

[qvcatullus]

Hoooooraaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!
Need money. Anyone want to give me some? It's for a good cause.


Also, is this going to be the regular English version I would get in a store here? I will be confused if I end up with something Scandinavian. It would also be nice if the site listed the performance specs on the game because I need to get a computer -- my current one is failing rapidly; so I need to know whether CK or puter comes first. Hopefully CK -- new puter would mean even more money.

Sounds great, with some luck I'll buy CK using this method.

Still, I must sincerely hope that Paypal is never made the *only* method (some of us have the misfortune of living in countries were, for some reason or other, this service is not available and probably won't be in the near future either...thus we cannot use it, sadly), but rather made an option...

Btw, Paradox games are usually in English even in the "Scandinavian" version.

 

[unmerged(334)]

PROBLEM!! PROBLEM!!

Ok, I tryed using it and it had a problem. No confirmation or anything. I sent e-mail to paradox and will see what they say. It looks like the store is not ready for bussines 100%


btw. It never asked me what language version I wish. (German, English or Swede) I am asuming that it is in English and they will figure out that from my address.

Will buying the game in this manner lead to a higher percentage of the profits going to Paradox, or will the publisher still get their cut? Usually I like to buy a game in a store, but I'd be more inclined to buy this way if it would benefit Paradox more....

 

[unmerged(12596)]

I like very much the PayPal system
Only one key-word and a secure system. Please do it.

Agreed. If it helps paradox, and i assume it will, I'll definitely be buying it through them. Good news about the release being so soon. I am very excited about this game, more than any other since EU II!!!

BTW, nothing against paypal since i've never used it, but whats so hard about using a credit card? I've bought a ton of games online that way, infact I usually have to buy the games i like online since they dont sell them in the US, or at least you just can't walk into any store and find them all the time. (EU II, HOI, CM's, TCM2004).

What are the shipping rates? For some reason, the site gets blocked as adult content from my work computer. :rofl:

This is a good idea, especially if Paradox gets a better deal from this.

However, be advised. There's a good chance foreigners will be hit with a Customs/Duty charge.

In Canada, I've ordered CDs from England many times and the customs/handling charges can be outrageous. I say this so that you will be aware of this and not start screaming at Paradox when/ if this happens.
