The more I look into this game the more enthusiastic I become. Although I am slightly confused about the release date, some sources say March, others April. Which is the official?

And if any of you want to get a group together to play regularly once the game is released I would be more than willing to set something up.

March 3rd, so says GameStop.

and yes, I'd be more than willing to be in a BF2s E:TW group.

March 3rd is now marked on the calendar, even if that is a really nerdy move to pull.

Once we have maybe 5 or 6 people who show interest in a group I'll start a thread and see what we're working with

That's gotta be a preorder or a mistake or something...you can't even pirate it yet!
has to be a screw up

It's not a preorder but a screw up ... I preordered my game from elsewhere and will prolly get it 3rd or 4th, but my friend is picking up his copy today at the post office and I'm going over to his place to play it TODAY

Disapointment of the day ... my friend just called, it has to be activated through steam so we can't play it until next Tuesday

I was hoping to show you guys some nifty screenshots tomorrow

Coulda guessed that, to be honest, the game seems to be almost entirely integrated with Steam... minus the achievements.

Yah, same thing with FEAR 2.

It's a good and relatively hassle-free way of going about anti-piracy... but it sucks when the Steam servers get too busy to validate or install your game.

I got screwed a round a little with spore like that. But having a steam validation isn't too big an issue I guess. Just sucks if you've got the game early I suppose.

I could have guessed the MP part of the game was blocked until 3rd but that the other functions was blocked was a downer ... oh well, just a week to wait ...

Theres no more crusading or jihading but I think religion is still there for the order aspect.

I say good ridance. Keeping the pope happy was fucking annoying.

Actually I don't care either way as my computer isn't going to be good enough for empires.

the pope fucking hated me no matter what i did

France attacks me and i get excommunicated, what the fuck!

which is why i camped an army outside of Rome for when the pope got bitchy.... draw him into a fight and kill him, no pope no problem

I assassinated cardinals until I had the majority vote in the college. Then whenever my favour with the pope fell I assassinated him too, and voted in one of my cardinals.

Shogun 2, to be honest.

Shogun was always my standout favourite, spent so much time on that game!
