I can't believe that EB or future shop will not have OF in canada until october 24th, atleast thats what their release dates tell them, how messed up is that?  I live within basic spitting distance from relic hq, maybe i should go buy it direct, if they sell it.. mmm!

anyone find it in canada ?

diret2drive i guess... blah

Direct2drive is crap; if u reinstall a legit game u dl-ed from them too many times (i think u get 5), your activation key stops working.  Very lame

Well relic deserve to hang thier heads in shame really,

The game is broken in australia, every retail copy from what ive read bought is broken.   You can't patch it you can't play while connected to the internet and you can't play skirmish without being on relic online.

As far as reputation goes they are doing a very good job at ruining it with this game.   

Add to that that the patch for vcoh does not include the sounds for the new factions and you need the OFcoh cd key to open them up for vcoh and you have a very messy release for a game that promised allot and so far fails to deliver on stability and quality control.

I could have waited another few months if the option was to have a game that works when you buy it and not have to a) dl a patch before you can play or b) have a game that does not recognise intended patch because of poor quality control. 

GG relic how about save us the trouble next time and shoot yourself in the foot before you inflict everyone else with this nonsense.

THQ Australia's fault, not Relics. Relic has to fix the crap that THQ has caused.
