hey guys does this game offer good replayability? or izit the delete-right-after-campaign sort of RTS?

Malaysia must be such a small market for EA they are most probably not going to care if we can or not download, that's our own issue (tmnet, guv and all)

5,3g takes only a couple of hours to download when you have a real internet connection.

When I was in France I had a 25Mb line with free unlimted national phone (VoIP), free astro-like IP tv connection with around 150 channels. I could play World of Warcraft with 30ms lag while downloading like crazy on Emule or uTorrent and watching the TV on the net connection at the same time. All of these for 30 euros per month (around 150rms) unlimited and they provide the big modem box that does all stuff, you only have to plug your phone, tv and computer to it to be all set.

And all of that was 4 years ago, not sure what are the prices and offers now but it can only have improved due to the competition between the different ISPs (this is the BIGGEST difference with Malaysia, competition means ISPs are the one running after you and trying to improve their services to make you stay). From what I heard now the modem box has now an integrated HD and you can record movies on it directly via the tv on IP...

Here we have stupid tmnet with his sucky "fair share" that limit our connection to crap speed and give us crap over crowded IP ranges

It's like two different world, Malaysia is at least 10 years late from Europe (which is nothing "that" impressive compared to Japan or Korea)

I totally agree situation here sucks but I can't really blame EA or Steam to follow the trend of these DLC.

From a marketing point of view it's a smart move, less issues for them (like the distributor forgets to put code in the box like it happened few times recently), less costs without media supports etc.

Malaysia Boleh right?

For Uprising, I will either bit the bullet and download it at nights or wait for a box version, I can wait for a solo campain addon.
TSB is usually very helpful but they do not "have" to do it if it's too troublesome for them

Same as Gormaz. Can't be bothered to download with EA downloader.

After using Steam for DoW2 for a while I find that this online move by EA and Steam is damn good IF you have a proper net connection. So much features like proper patching and able to play your games anywhere as long as you have a connection.

ra3 uprising u are mine ! hohoho

few more hour to wait !!!!

for me it's DAMN GOOD replayability. i've been playing everday......... well except for past 24 hrs.

So anyone gotten Uprising yet?.. heh

U mean TSB provide (burned/copy) DVD?.. so generous ah?..

Cheers

Or they just charge you for the extra DVD price

i already play uprising, but suprisingly, there is no giga fotress in the skirmish, maybe i dont discover it yet on naval but i'm sure the giga fotress is only in campaign

i have found giga-fotress
its in imperial dock(eotrs water unit factory)

one words, damn powerfull but moving slow and very expensive
its 6300

Ok, i just called RSB abt it, they said they will provide dvd (duplicated ones, not those official cool looking ones.. lol) for free, but only available in abt 2weeks time.

So, for now, u can either download it from EA or bring yer external hdd there to copy it from their pc.

Someone here mentioned before, that all the new units can't be use in multiplayer/skrimish, thats one of the reasons alot ppl not really looking forward for the game, esp. those hardcore mp gamers.. heh

Btw, still can co-op in campaign ah?.. coz weird that one of my friends said theres no co-op in Uprising, is it true?..

Cheers

I think there is no co-op for Uprising Campaign.

Warao.. what a big bummer for this expansion.. its like they took out the new features in mp.

So practically it became just a singleplayer game instead of both singleplayer and multiplayer game (since no new units on it.. so don't really counted that in mp.. heh )... dam...

I might just skipped this one, esp. theres no promo price on this one, and might wait for steam weekend specials (if there one) for it.. lol.. or wait for retail box version (hopefully cheaper that time).. well.. if theres a retail box version.. heh

Cheers

It's pretty much a SP expansion.Just for SP people who find the first release lacking in SP content.

Same as me,i'll probably wait for Steam then.Tempted to get HAWX from there too.

Yar, I might wait for it to be cheap on Steam or something, no much hurry for a fully SP campain and I have other games to play at the moment.

I am also leaving Msia soon so at least I should have better internet so might be able to get it from Steam directly

Now I wonder how do I pay through Steam, credit card ? :/

here is screen-shot for giga-fortress

I'll just apply one when time comes.

Lulz, oh well

*off to grey area to look for it*

one more

Are you playing it in skirmish?

That new map looks good.
