Alderei Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Here I am stuck at work for another 3 hours, followed by class for another 3, then a wife and kid at home demanding attention!

Calgar99 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Checked marketplace, not out in Ireland anyway. Side note for some reason it won't let me purchase microsoft points. My Credit card is still valid???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSPerry Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) According to these postings over on the ubi forums... official GRAW2 DLC emails have been sent out. http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3.../7581028826/p/5 The DLC is available now... no its not... yes it is... Its 400 pts, no its 800 pts, no its 400 pts. There is a DLC video... no there isn't a video... Can someone clear this all up? Kimi? Anybody?

It is made worse when so many people are waiting for it and looking forward to it, even more reason to get the release exactley right with out screwing it up.

Raw Kryptonite Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Oh take it easy. I'm wondering if the 400 is UK, 800 is US, due to exchange rates. I think members reporting 400 are UK. Sure wouldn't mind 400 though! Edited January 28, 2008 by Raw Kryptonite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure wouldn't mind 400 though! Highly unlikely. The whole reason MS made their own point system instead of just using currency for MP transactions was to avoid exchange rate problems. The value of MS points, relative to local currency should be taken care of at the point of purchase of the MS points, not the use of the points on Marketplace. Internationally, the content should be the same MS points. The discrepancy is probably just another Ubi blunder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o RATMAN o Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) I had the email and it states 400MP and I am in the UK, I thought we were going to see the news first here (Well on this and ghostrecon.com forums) not via email. Hopefully it's just a Ubiglitch as they seem to have and the maps will appear in the next few hours, is it possible that the maps will be added at say 1700 in the US which would make it later here in the UK but we all got sent the email at the same time.. Also has anyone seen any official response from the powers that be?? Edited January 28, 2008 by o RATMAN o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also has anyone seen any official response from the powers that be?? Nothing official. But it seems that one group sent out an email BEFORE talking with the other group about the announcement or the email. Kinda like that time I told my best friend I was going to propose to my girl and then he went to the store, picked up the ring, took a picture of it, and sent the picture to her in an email with a description of my upcoming "proposal," even though I hadn't picked a time or a place yet.... That never happened, but if it did, it would be kind of like what's going on with this DLC right now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beonder13 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 So, what now? We are told there will be an announcement today... and the announcement is made... and the maps are STILL not available on live. Will they be available on Tuesday like most DLC is?

Kimi still hasn't made her announcement. Someone somewhere else sent something to some people, but it wasn't the canned announcement that Kimi had planned when she dropped her hint earlier in the weekend. She, I believe is still working on making sure her announcement lines up with what someone else sent on email before she posts something incorrect. Guessing that RSE is Pacific Time Zone, which means she's got another 3 hours to get something out during the work day. Kimi is a woman, right?

Xx RTEK xX Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I just came in from the Ubi forums, they closed it down for maintanence. I wonder if they got caught with their pants down? After all this 400pts/800pts, it's out, it's not out, etc etc, seems like they need to do some damage control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methz68 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 What a complete screw up that was. Two prices are floating around for the DLC and news was promised today and they pull the plug on the forums.. UBI goes from strength to Strength!

Xx RTEK xX Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 The email I got said 400pts. If I get on the Marketplace and it says 800pts, I'm going call Microsoft and demand I get the content for 400 as that is what Ubisoft advertised. I'm sure they won't honor it, but it's worth a shot if it comes down to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgar99 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 So whats the speculation.....?Is it a price issue? Is the content actually ready? I find it very extreme that they would close down the ubi forums. I hope they had a genuine reason. Wonder if Kimi could enlighten us?

At least they can't pull the plug on these forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but it is disappointing that we were told we would get information on Monday, then the e-mails start coming out, seemingly throwing a wrench in Kimi's plans, and now they have had to close off the conduit of information we were told to check in order to find the new information. Not at all surprising though, given Ubi's track record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
