Brilliant..at last.

just ordered mine from egosoft too, get the farnham book to read on the toilet inbetween food,drink and X3
also bought the saitek x52 joystick and throttle.
just need a state of the art pc now.

My wife must understand that the reason i booked a week off work
is not to spend quality time with her and my daughter.. whats her name :wink: , but to play X3.

cant wait 'YAY!!'

Grr, state holiday.

Post by plynak »

Oh no, I have preordered yesterday, but there is a state holiday here in the Czech Republic on 28th. The 28th release date means that they will start sending copies or that we will recieve copies. Because that would the first time in my life I would hate a state holiday :)

Could I ask if in the UK X3 will be in all shops on that Friday the 28th?

Or will it be sent out then and not show up in shops till Saturday or even Monday?


Thanks

Generally, the release date is the date it will appear in the shops. So you should be able to purchase it next Friday. :D

May I ask a very suptid question (since I can't find any other thread mentioning it) - But could you possibly tell me when Egosoft shop will be shipping X3 out for those of us who pre-ordered it via the shop??
IE: Will we get it on the day of release, or will they ship it on the day of release??

My appoligies if this has been asked and answered somewhere else, but I couldn't find it.. :(

A press release will be sent out very shortly from the local publisher, Streamline Studios.

i too would be very interested in getting the answer to this. i live in australia and really hope the preorder arrives on the 28th. if egosoft are using a good courier comany that should be no problem.

co-incendentaslly - if my preorder does arrive before it is availabel in sotres then i will be impressed and very likley to continue buying through egosoft store (x4 ;) ).

well i checked with gamestop, and they said that since they pushed it back already 1 time that 90% likly they wont set another date, usually 1 or 2 days is ok but if its a week IE the 27 or 28th then they would have definatly put it to at least the 27th of the month, so IM GOING TOMOROW AND IM GONNA GET MY COPY :evil:



even if its wishfull thinking let me have my dreamworld, its my 1player world anyway................ :roll:

Release date question

Post by Trevelvis »

I have preordered it will it arrive on the 28th or leave the warehouse/shop on that day as its been a looooooonnggg wait. Will companies be allowed and have the game early enough so we receive it on the 28th. I have never preordered something before so sorry if a simple question.

x4 rolls around in about 2 years

i hope in 2 years cuz X3 looks really big, so i think that 2 years to finish the game (100% all secrets an X trem) is could be good

(sry for my english, my brain is undercontrol of MJ) :lol:
