My thoughts exactly. I'll wait for a bundle and buy it half off with all the DLC. :thumbsup:Wait for a price drop I say.
Guess what? Creative Assembly have started censoring their forums and are no longer replying to questions on social media. It looks like they have pure contempt for Warhammer fans as well as their own. You just have to look on their YouTube channel to see all the dislikes they're getting on their most recent video. Bloody idiots!
What's the hubbub about? That day one DLC?
Yeah and the fact it's clearly a finished part of the game that they're just ripping out and offering for pre-orders. Also they'll mostly likely sell it further down the line for £10. It's an entire faction they're ripping out for flip's sake!
Still less than in their previous games, where it were 2-3 factions of a specific cultural background (Vikings in Attila and Greeks in Rome 2).
So, actually we should hail them for witholding less*! :stoptrolling:
*may contain traces of sarcasm.
My soul hurts.I may have found the best video game ad ever:

Nah, just embrace your inner dark side.I guess I should find something to get rid of this anger.
Anyone have any experience getting Pirates! to run (the 1987 version, not Gold or the 2004 remake, both of which work fine)? I can get it started about 75% of the time and pass the copy protection, but the game constantly freezes up and/or bugs out once I visit the governor's mansion at the very beginning.
Steam, actually. I think I got it in a bundle, but Steam only sets up Gold (and even then, not very well). Thanks for that bit of info—the loadfix seems to have worked in the newer version of D-Fend.I played the Gold version, so not sure how well the original runs in DosBox. Did you get your version from GOG? They run "loadfix" before actual game in their dosbox config.
True, true, though I've encountered some pretty appalling exceptions. They didn't do anything to help avoid the constant crashes or the impossibility of the bell puzzle in Silver, for example. There are even cutscenes that don't trigger. Stuff like that has a way of eroding the faith somewhat.@227: You should better buy such games on GOG next time. They spend some significant effort figuring out how to solve similar issues.

I don't think the game is even available on Steam.Does it work with Steam though? Is it just a problem with it being "old"?
I don't think the game is even available on Steam.
It's definitely a problem of the game's age (the bell puzzle is tied to CPU speed or something bizarre like that, so powerful hardware combined with fixed-length animations can make the timing very literally impossible), but I've seen GOG confirm in various other game release threads that they've somehow managed to fix these types of long-lingering problems in other games. I think it'd go a long way to at least contact the person who made the save-anywhere utility for the game that allows you to glitch through the door and try to officially distribute it, but they've seemed content to leave users to dig through their forums for that solution and hope that the mediafire download link is still alive. Definitely one of the more frustrating purchases I've made there.
It's not an MS-DOS game, though. Or can you use DOSBox with just about anything? Like I mentioned earlier, I don't have much experience with the program.Shouldn't DOSBox help you address that, since you can change the number of CPU cycles you simulate?
