Yaaay! Got my CloD Collector's Edition today....
 

not sure I wanna open it though. Maybe I'll save it in mint condition. Already have my standard DVD version installed so.

I'd leave it mint if I were you addman. The box itself is the best bit - very nicely made. Sadly, the map falls way short of the 'replica' mark and the pilot's notes has printing errors.

Congrats addman. Go on and treat yourself to the smell of freshly unwrapped plastic and cardboard, enjoy the goodies inside!:)

Welcome to the club:grin:

Plus the game on the disk is not the one we play and with Steam it is useless. On the plus side it looks good on my shelf. :)

Open it mate! :grin:

The stuff inside is maybe not up to some people's exacting standards, but it's fun to thumb through and to look at.

I doubt there'll ever be any real value gained by keeping it pristine.

Go on.............you know you want to! :lol:

So what do you get with this that you don't with the download?

Here you go Doc;

Spit MkI pilot's notes, Game manual, cloth map, posh box. :)

I wasn't that interested in the content of the Collectors edition but bought it just to support the new series. The cost of the collectors edition is minuscule to the possible entertainment value of the new series. Many of us haven't had much entertainment yet, but the performance patch, subsequent features, theaters, longevity game engine design should make this new series far more entertaining than the original.

I purchased Cliffs of Dover through Steam - not all that long ago now -paid full price, but man this looks tempting, I would not mind having the documentation and a printed copy of the manual.

Got my collectors edition today as well and I'm very pleased with it for the price:-

Although I've been none too happy with the state of CloD since release I felt that this was a nice thing to have even though I have the Steam D/L version as well. Here's hoping the new patch will live up to expectations.

Cheers.

Wow..........great price,well done:)

I can't get this here. Bummer.

Congrats!...do not forget to break a bottle of champaign on it before opening, or it will CTD.

Is it patched..?

Then may I congratulate you on buying the BoM CE?:mrgreen:
I know you can congratulate me.

Should we create a select club? The COD original club COC :grin:

I got mugged with this first time around on pre-order....60 quid in all. How much is it now, a fiver? :) The map is truly appalling but can double as a handy dishcloth (one can never have too many dishcloths lol), manual is so-so, pilot notes completely wrong, with missing and duplicated pages and other glaring discrepancies (IE the wrong aircraft).

Ah well, over it now.....not a big deal. Going straight to download next time on BoM methinks*. :grin:

*if i get it....that is. Which I probably will......'Muggins McGraw' is the name, getting bumped is my game. :D

Just ordered mine from amazon.de. :cool:

I got mine a week or so ago, ripped the stupid paper cover thing with the blurb and screenies...oh well.
