Default who do i need to get in touch with?

who do i need to get in touch with regarding getting my money back? sony or the makers/publishers of this game?

the demo is still on the ps3 store and i bought it. little did i know that $13.99 later that the demo was pulled by searching this forum to find out only 100 something kb was downloaded. i thought i was buying the full game.

i am so effen pissed off right now at both the monkeys at sony and the devs for allowing sony to keep this game at the ps3 store. its like buying a game without the cd.

i hope an official rep can get back to me regarding this fubar!!!

Wait, so you paid 13.99 for the demo thinking it wasthe full game only to have sony pull the demo and you end up with nothing? Do sony sell demos? I'm confused. But at the end of the day if its something you've bought/paid for from sonys store, they're the ones responsible.

I don't think you can buy the demo anymore. I had thought they pulled it awhile back ago, but I could be wrong? Maybe you bought the Add-on's like Spitfire said, but I dunno how you could do that without the actual game disk? (I've only ever bought updates when I had the actual disk, so I dunno if it's possible to have the Add-on(s) without the actual disk in your PS3?)

Since when do you have to pay for a demo? You must have tried to download the DLC for the game (P47 + extra missions). $13.99 seems a bit expensive though, although it was £8 in the UK...

You've definately bought the DLC mate not the demo, Unfortunately the DLC will be no use without the full game to begin with. It was roughly $13.99 in Australia for that DLC pack from memory. Great game though, worth every cent in my opinion

well, see here the thing is the store said it was the game. granted it didnt say full game. it said 'game pack'. i'm thinking it meant the actual game. i double checked it in the body to get a better read on it and it didnt say, expansion, demo or anything, just a the corporate jiberish.

so i check out what it was that was downloaded and i got an il-2 game banner of 174kb.

174kb seems too small for the p47 and additional missions. as you know you can buy any full game version on the ps3. thats what i thought i was buying.

then i researched the forum and i'm presuming it was the demo (albeit expensive) that i downloaded. since i ran into the thread that said sony was charging for the demo.

as of right now, it looks like the game is not full version on the ps store, nor is the demo. from all the feedback, it sounds like i got a p47 vehicle update for the game, but for u.s. $13.99????

you know, i dont know even know who i'm connected to. i'm in dubai. the ps3store charges me in u.s. currency. and i think i'm connected to europe.

it sounds like the game is worth the hard copy though and the graphics and setup i like. and i'm liking the aspect of multi-player online battles in the sky. i guess at this point, i'm trying to figure out what it is that i bought for $13.99.

its not difficult to get a hard copy here, i just wanted to get it soft and not deal with the boxes and cd.

question regarding the multiplayer: can you communicate with your teammates while in-battle/flight?

Its well worth buying mate. And if you do, the thing you downloaded might work with the CD copy, and you'll have an extra plane and missions.
And yes, you can communicate with your teammates, if you have a headset or microphone.
