2 questions about TA

from GalCiv2 Forums
I plan to buy this when it comes out. So I was wondering:

Will the new graphics also apply to DL and DA or only TA?

Will the disk version include a printed manual like the gold edition does?

Thanks.

No to both.

The graphics updates, partucularly the planet texture system, are features of TA. That's probably the biggest change, and it would require actual code changes to port it back. The lesser stuff like ships and weapon graphics won't be ported back, but could likely be modded in manually if you like.

The disc will most likely just be a CD in a sleeve as was the case with DA-only purchases. It's not a retail box, just an option for those who want a hard backup or can't feasibly download it.
