...NOW WHAT!?

When this game comes out i haev a question!

I have heard that because DM uses the Source Engine, and Valve supports DM, that DM will be available for purchase over Steam, (and u thought u had trouble dling the demo?) BUT, i wonder if the game will retail in stores on DVD.

oh, i know its a lil old school, but CD?! i don't have a DVD rom =/ too ghetto, But with my current comp spex (lil over min [medium]) i don';t feel the neccessity to upgrade one part. MY MOBO ONLY SUPPORTS AGPx4 LOLZ!!!!!!!!

Time to upgrade my man, it's just how things progress in the world of computers. I'm doing it after almost 5 years with basicly the same system. DVD players are cheap as hell, $30 bucks tops will get you a nice one.

It would take 7-8 CD's to store the game, and that would cost Ubi more than 2 DVD's and the packaging would have to be changed in order to accomidate the CD's and weight.

Head to Walmart and get you one of them eMachines, HP's or Compaq's for $500, they have 16x PCIe slots for video cards and may even have and AMD 64 processor in one if you do some shopping around.

Prioritize, ditch cable, long distance, and the cell phone for a month and, bingo, there's your cash to buy a new system. :P

I could've sworn there was a "PC CD" icon next to the PC DVD icon a few days ago on the teaser site... it's gone now. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-indifferent.gif
