Just wondering about the DG coupon.
Is it still a possibility that it is coming out this week? Has there been update since the coupon has been menton?
thanks for reading,
sorry if this has been asked and answered.

My guess is once the proxy servers are up, and, more importanly, once brad feels like the connectivity is fairly stable. Then coupons will be sent out. I think they are still in the fixing stage.
probably next week.
what coupons?!?
I want more than one coupon, I have many friends who want to buy for half price but only one coupon ![]()
Next week.
Really?
REALLY?
Am I the only one who'd feel bad telling a friend to get this game even at half price when you can't play together via skirmishes/pantheon yet and with so many connection issues? If a buddy did that to me I'd kick him in the dick for recommending it. Sure hope you guys clearly explain the current state of affairs before you start enticing your friends to purchase even at a discounted price.
Honestly Shock, while I disagree with alot of decisions Frogboy's company has made, I would enjoy this 20$ coupon to get another copy for a friend that I know will love this game. I plan to be playing this game for awhile, and would enjoy my week off next week before I start my new job with my friends.
It's your decision when you choose to use the coupon, as long as it doesn't expire before these issues are even fixed...
No, you're not the only one, but you're also not the vast majority. I plan to play a lot of custom games with just my friends in it. I've already got 2 friends who bought the game early, if all three of us can get another 3 friends to buy it then we can play 3v3's with each other in custom battles and get more than $20 worth of fun out of it.
I have been explaining the situation to friends who I recommend the game to. The connection issues aren't the biggest hinderance in me recommending the game to friends though, the lack of a multi player demo is.
I don't feel it's the sort of gameplay that'll appeal to all my friends, so usually I tell them to wait until the next lan, try to get a few games in with a pirate copy and then decide based on that.
A multi player demo is going to be great for those sort of situations
Well, given the current state of MP for this game, I think it is safe to state that SD choice of waiting after release before making a demo was restropectively a wise one.
How people would have reacted if they had a demo with the day 0 networking code ?
Thanks Frogboy looking forward to it!
and also I only play Custom games, Pantheon (at least for the times ive played it) has been 2v2 which is boring to me I like 3v3 4v4 5v5s. May get into more custom 2v2s with my friend.
Agreed, I did not mean to criticize the beloved SD overlords, I just meant to say I'm looking forward to when they DO release a multi player demo so I can get more people playing, because more people playing means more fun for me.
Hard to say. If a multi player demo was released a week or two ahead of the full version then stardock probably could have spun it as a beta and sorted out some of these issues before launch. People can sometimes be more understanding when they haven't given you money for a product.
On the other hand, people may have looked at the demo and been turned off buying regardless of the future patches.
The point is moot though as it's not what happened and I'm not trying to argue that it's what should have happened. I'm just looking forward to both my coupon and a muilti player demo so I can start trying to recruit more friends to play with.
eek its Thursday! I hope we can get the coupon tomorrow for some weekend Demigoding!
