Top Things to do while waiting for the release

Post by norb »

1. Deluge the team with tons of questions on the forums :)
2. Get a lobby account on BattleHQ so that you secure your user name.
3. Deluge other civil war forums with links to the game.
4. Spread crazy rumors about what's included in the release.
5. Start planning the patch :)

Is there any truth to rumor that the first 100 to purchase the game will receive a special candle that will provide the battlefield nuances of smoke, wet blood, horse manure, decaying body parts, body excrements from the general excitement, and all the other grand things that were traditionally present during and following a great conflict?

I prefer SP, unlikely would join another site to play GB. Battle HQ appears to be for the MP player. I certainly would not like anything like Steam. "Keep It Simple", as far as I am concerned. :P

Don't worry, you can do it in the game if you want. Even if you just do SP, it's a very easy place to go and chat with other players.

#3 Is the most important!!!

I have sent several dozen emails to various Civil War sites... JOIN ME PEOPLE...

Of Topic. In General people wanna play the game before their willing to link to the games website from their website but they all seem enthusiastic about the coming game.
