i only wanted to ask if the new sequel will be available on DVD or is it a file for downloading. I for myself like the DVD version. Thanx LC

As I am old I also like the feeling of inserting the Cassette/Floppy/CD/DVD into my computer and installing the game... It's a nostalgic feeling that brings back fond memories like opening those nice boxes from "Dynamix games" with a bunch if 3.5 inch discs and a nice printed manual that was spiral bound. Or that heavy 342-page manual for Falcon 3.0 with a bunch of Maps to stick on the wall... These are the distributions I mourn, and not when they stop sending DVD:s with a 12-page installation guide inside...
Thinking of it with a tear in my eye while writing this I picked out my old F3 manual from the bookshelf. But where are those darn 3.5 inch floppies? But wait - I don't have a 3.5 inch floppy reader anyway so does it matter?  But - I wonder how many more years until DVD:s are completely gone as a distribution channel for games? My bet is a maximum of 3 years... As it is now the DVD:s are just silly - all the latest games are the same way. The DVD basically installs the game, connects to Origin, Steam etc and downloads the whole game again from scratch as the image on the DVD is old on day one... And all the games use these online services for authentication anyway. Whatever we think about it, it's the future. I for sure would like to have those fat boxes we had 10-20 years ago like the Falcon 3 box above with all those goodies  The DVD case I got with CloD with a leaflet inside is nothing I will save for the future like the Falcon 3 stuff in the image above!/Mazex

Question: Headset
Hi!
I just saw your photo. Cool equipment. What headset do you use? I have a Senheizer PC 360 GAME. (Creative Sounblaster card.) The only bad thing is the cable... because I use Track IR 5 also. Lots of cable hanging araound... Nice for my cat but bad for me. Thanks in advance Kobold10

Pay by installment, over a period of years?

S!
I wish for a DVD just in case. And hopefully the devs have learned from Wargaming.net how to NOT treat the community.
