My new PC is ready.
I am ready.
This forum is full of threads.
And CTP2 has not been shipped in Germany.

Or in Britain. . .

It's not good - there are probably thousands of Europeans ready to buy the game as soon as it comes out and Activision is faffing around.

They aren't even responding to our queries on Apolyton threads.

This is so annoying.

Why are we getting the game so late?

Activision are scum. SCUM I SAY!

I think it's safe to say that red_jon and I are less than impressed about CTP2 not being released on 24th Nov as we were told it would be.

The Eurogamer review said it is out in the U.K. now.

Activision: why are you telling reviewers a date that has not been followed up?

Why the delay, please?

I'm sure there's a good reason, but it'd be an idea if you told your customers what it is . . .

Why the hell is it being released in GERMANY before the UK?

They have to translate the manual to German!!!

Perhaps the dimwits at activision couldn't find Britain on the map

Well, it is only about 4 tiles big, isn't it?

Yeah, but considering in Germany you just have to wait a couple more weeks for CTP2, while us over here in the states have to wait indefinitely for Europa Universalis, I think we're getting the short end of the stick on this side of the lake. From what I've seen of EU, it's amazing, CTP2 is good, but EU sounds revolutionary for the genre, I hope Firaxis are taking notes from that
