Well my thread asking for help was just deleted so in my looking around I found this thread to be the most relevant to my issue. Long story short I had heard about this game and wanted to check it out. Didnt have a good idea of the release date, I actually thought it was in September. Today I was in a store, saw this game and bought it. I came home, installed it, and immediately was greeted with a box saying "the game is not available" and to go to elementalgame.com for more information. I did that, I came here, I posted about my issue and the thread was deleted.
Obviously since then I have read threads, see what is going on with the beta testers, pre orders, street dates, launches, etc. I believe this is a good company as I have enjoyed sins of a solar empire for a while now.
I am however disappointed that I bought this game, came home, put it in my computer and was then told I am not allowed to play what is on my computer. I know a lot of people here played this beta and have been waiting for this game for a REALLY REALLY long time and I know now it must suck to see someone just buy the game when you were supposed to get it before anyone else.
Its just rough from my persecutive. I'm at the store, see something that looks sweet and buy it, then cannot play it. My dissapointment only comes from a desire to play what looks to be an awesome game.
Your thread isn't deleted. I got the message like it was gone too, and assumed it was deleted, but now it's around again. Maybe it got moved or something? I just use the "recent posts" thing, so I dunno. Anyway, Frogboy posted a workaround there, so I'd say you're going to be able to pull through this, though it is still unfortunate that this level of hassle went down.
