Impulse Weekend Sale 3-3-2011: Medal of Honor 50% off

[CeeKay]

IN for Medal of Honor at $14.99!  the rest of it is pretty meh.

[EngineNo9]

Yeah, I might give MoH a try for that price.  Although with Homefront and Crysis 2 out in a couple weeks I'm not sure I need another shooter right now.

It's a short game, so if your worried about length it should fit in perfectly between now and Homefront.

Use coupon SURVEY2010 to make it $13.49 !!!!!!

Personally I was interested in the East India Company collection for 70% off - and for once it was actually available in my region!  Sold, to the handsome Welshman for less than four quid.

[kratz]

Grabbed MOH... is there co-op?

nope, just versus MP.

they also have the "sequel" conquest of the americas for $10.49

[Huw the Poo]

Yeah, it's tempting but there should be loads of gameplay in the first collection, plus I'll be playing Rift pretty much exclusively for a long while anyway.  I've always been interested in EIC but put off by the lukewarm reception, so I couldn't ignore getting the lot for less than four quid.

[Kestrel]

In for Medal of Honor - Thanks for the tip!

[frost]

very aggravating.  I ordered MOH and the East India Company pack from them, and several hours later, I still have not received any registration codes or anything.  Here's to hoping they respond a little faster to my email to their customer service.

[Huw the Poo]

That sucks, Frost.  I wonder what happened there.  Have you tried installing the games anyway?  In Impulse I've never had to enter a code, they're always applied automatically.

Unfortunately I'm pretty sure Stardock's support don't work on weekends so I wouldn't expect a reply until Monday at the earliest.

[CeeKay]

I'm wondering if they're not having issues.  I just fired up Impulse and the store page is all kinds of FUBAR'd.

[Huw the Poo]

A couple of weeks ago Impulse wouldn't let me install Kudos 2 (bought a couple of years ago, never installed on my current machine).  It kept saying that the registration code was invalid, even though I checked against the purchase email and it was exactly the same.  A Stardockian got me to run some kind of reg file which seemed to completely reset Impulse; it remembered what games I have obviously, but I lost the "times played" stats and had to provide account info again, stuff like that.  No big deal, but another sign that Impulse is twitchy lately.

Bit of a shame really, given that it's the best DD client out there.

I was watching some gameplay videos for Conquest and man, did it look boring.

they are definitely of the "slow burning" types.  i didn't have any impressions like that when playing other similar games so i'm hoping that the EIC complete i bought won't be too dull either.

[CeeKay]

OK, Impulse gets a big WTF? for this one.

It appears you are correct, sir, because I haven't heard squat from them yet. 

[frost]

wow, Monday coming to a close, and not even a word from them.  Pretty safe to say this will be the last purchase I make from Stardock/Impulse.

[kratz]

I imagine you have checked your spam/junk folders?

I just finished MOH last night... wow, that is a seriously, seriously short SP game.  Really pretty fun and well done, but super, super short.  I would've been bummed if I'd paid $60, but it was fine for $15.  Need to check the MP next, I suppose.

Yeah, I was checking all folders in case it accidentally got moved or some nonsense.

I got a reply today at 1100 ET so I'm finally able to get it up and running.  Don't know why this simple fix couldn't have been addressed on Monday.

[Huw the Poo]

Out of curiosity, what was the problem/fix?
