Thinking of others

Depends. They could arrange it in a seperate folder under HOI3 main.
Like many other games work. That way you could always play the Main game...or the Addon.

Galactic Civilizations works that way....or the Civilization Games.
You can do same for Paradox games...but would need to make a copy of the full game folder before. Thats whatz i do reguarly....before i install Addons..or even Mods.

This from the GG site (they have taken off the tick for preload)

"Today 12:11 am by signatus

The game is slated to be released on June 6th. It will probably be on for download on the night of the 5th to the 6th.

Pre-load refers to the fact that you can download part of the game previously, so that you have less to download once the game is relased. You won't be able to download and play it before it's release date, though."

So no early playing for us prebuyers.

Thanks..

Those of us that have to work on sunday were allowed to sleep in this morning.. Which was nice, as the annual office summer-party was last night.

Guess you'll see me, kallocain & king around alot on sunday from pdx.

Hope the release will be smooth then so you will be able to relax that day

I have thinking about the June 6th release date for Semper Fi, and realise that I have been selfish. At no time did I consider the Paradox and Gamersgate staff who will have to work on Sunday to ensure a smooth release.

Why should these people have to work on their hard-earned day off just to get a game out to us?

So I think that, to allow all those dedicated staff a good weekend's rest, that the game should be released today, Friday the 4th June. I realise it is not the anniversary of the Normandy landings, but it is the anniversary of the Battle of Midway, which is probably more appropriate considering the Pacific War theme of the Marines' motto "Semper Fi".

Just hoping to please everyone

Nice try

Uhhh...because were paying for it? They want my money they need to perform. I don't feel sorry for somebody making a buck off it. Not going to happen.

I could tell you were an American without looking at your ID!

Do you like to have to work on what is supposed to be your days off? I suppose that workaholics don't mind.

Gamersgate says preload is 9 hours

but it's still crossed out / not part of the deal

Personally I'm hoping I won't have to come here and see any of you. If I do that means something has gone terribly, terribly, wrong.

No one likes to work on their days off, but most professionals understand that's the price of being a professional. Hopefully the benefits outweigh the costs.

It has its' advantages. No traffic jams. Streets are less crowded in the morning. Looks romantic. Ahhh, the steppes of the Eastern front...

The way Cavalry Scout presents his "case" it sounds like he expects every person and every company that he has ever paid a couple of dollars to be available to him 24/7 under any circumstances. Very presumptuous, not to mention a bit arrogant. He must expect his bank to open up for him in the middle of the night if he doesn't feel like using the atm.

PDX is the designation of Portland, Oregon's international airport. If you three are going to be there, let me know which gate!

If he really feels that way, I imagine he is either extremely wealthy, or not old enough to have a real job, or is disappointed quite a bit in life. :rofl:

Oh come on people, whats with all this "professional, thats the price, I dont feel sorry for them, they're making a buck, they should have the day off" stuff...

Its pretty obvious why they (paradox) chose June 6th for the release, it could have been Monday, Wednesday or Friday, but this year june 6th falls on a Sunday.
