Re: Newbie questions
If you take in all that you get with the gold Version, the price is worth its purchase. If you read the forum and MM site, you will see that the game company gives the best support then any other gaming company, the forum is the best on the net, the members are friendlier then other forums, PLUS all the different mods available, plus all the mod updates, new races, ship sets, and continuous upgrading, and more... You may want to send MM or Shrapenl an PM and see what they would charge you in comparison to where you can buy it over there..... Play the demo and see what the game is like before you buy

Re: Newbie questions
I'm in england and i ordered it from shrapnel games, it is a bit of a high price but believe me it's worth it, i've played it evereyday since i got it at christmas, but i do recommend you try the demo first as £40 is a lot of money if you dislike it (It could happen  )
I couldn't get strtegic plus's Online shop to order me seiv, so i got it from shrapnel games, it's at the same price, The high price at strategic plus is because they have to ship it from america i think

Re: Newbie questions
the price of the full Version is well worth the investmate IMHO. I have had the full game since its released and was one of the few who pre-ordered it months in advance. I have never been dissappointed by the game. Board at times yes, but never dissappointed.

No, I think it is simply because strategic plus is a middleman and need a slice too Shrapnel ships from US, I received my from there at least. Fortunately, there is no VAT at customs, I was afraid I would pay even more

Re: Newbie questions
Hmm, the price is definitely a bit too high.
However, I'll get the demo and try it out. If it is as good people say it is, it might be worth it
Now I just have to find a good tutorial...

Re: Newbie questions
Don't let the price put you off, it's really a great game and the game will probably be on your computer longer than any other you have
It's also good for self esteem, theres nothing like sneaking a cloacked star destroyer into an enemies homeworld system after a bad day, ahh it's like a kodak moment!

Re: Newbie questions
Think of the cost this way.
What will be the price per hour of enjoyment compared to going to the moives?
