Soo tempting, Ive been waiting for this for ages. I may have to order the boxed one though.
DAMN, their purchasing store is down due to being overloaded

 

40 minutes to go, buy it now if you want the discount!

 

I wish I could but the Introversion store is down and my credit card is in a box somewhere as im in the middle of moving rooms around
Such a shame as I really wanted to play this but the boxed version isnt (to me) worth 15 quid and a tenner is a little much for a steam download when it comes off pre-order price. Unless steam now allows switch cards.

 

Tried to buy it from their site but just got "Our store is oveloaded" With no timeframe as to when it's gonna be back. Hope they take either PayPal or Solo otherwise I'm ****ed

 

Few broken links on the full-size images, this and this.

Looks like an awesome game, will be pre-ordering tonight I think.

 

Nath you have about 20 mins to pre-order before it goes back up in price.
Found the creditcard yay!

 

Order via Steam guys?

Images now fixed, thanks Nath.

 

Id order but i cant see the min sys specs

im on a school stol... liberated from a dumpster dell
which only has a 700mhz celeron with 382 mb ram got a sound card so thats a plus. So if you know the min specs plz share

Regarding the scrolling issues:

From what I've heard, the UI is customizable, so you can drag-move any of the "control strips" (eg. the time strip off the top), and put it where-ever you like.

Moving it down a cm or two should do the trick.

Aggies

 

Anyone else unable to authenticate their copy via steam? Im guessing the server is really over loaded or something.
Atleast it gives me time to cook

 

You read correctly - you can move around all the various panels. Quite why we didn't figure out you could move *this* one I don't know. In any case, an update has been written into the review. Many thanks for the pointer

 

Fantastic review, you just made me buy that game

 

See you online mate!

Wait... uh oh.... LAUNCH DETECTED!!

 

This is really annoying, I wanna play it but I can't buy it off Steam and their store's closed

 

Hi, my name is Tyinsar and I like the first few turns of Risk but after that I think it Sucks (I especially Hate the "I've been almost eliminated but I'll trade in my cards, get a 'bazillion' armies - I win!") - I do, however, like Risk 2210 (link)

 

Oh man, this looks awesome.

Please release a demo for us poor chaps who can't buy it yet.

 

I cant get on their site It just times out

 

Honestly... this game reminds me so much of WarGames.
"I want to play Global Thermonuclear War."
"Wouldn't you like to play a nice game of Chess?"
"No. Global Thermonuclear War."

Honestly though. Do you get bonus points for targeting Seattle and Las Vegas?
