Force_Feedback Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 Just sent 28 euros to gaypal, now I have to wait 3 days before I can dld the damn 1.1 add-on :( Let's hope it will be like the 1.1 demo preformance wise, because my puter sucks "butt". here ar my leet geeky puter stats cpu: AMD Athlon XP 1600+ mobo: ASUS A7V266-E memory: 2x 256 @ 266mhz and 1x 512 @ 400 mhz video: MSI GF FX-5600 128mb HD: 1xWD 80gb 2mb cache and 1x WD 200gb 8mb cache (windows is on the 80gb disk) Now I'm afraid that the Starforce spyware will slow down my pc during lomac (processor wise). Will that happen? I mean, my cpu can barely handle a 1.1demo su-25 with 5 AI planes and 10 AI choppers, plus like 10 sams (I get around 20 fps). Oh well, I'll lower some settings to make the game look even worse than flanker 2.5 :| Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
Kuky Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 I just paid for v1.1 and I can't download it either... I thought once the PayPal transaction is done it should automatically enable the download for me? Yeah, this is just soo typical... they'll say anything just to get it... and they will get it in an instant... but when they need to do something for the customer... then the waiting starts. Not a good start...

355th_Xantris Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 Hmmm. I just let my brother pay via my account on his comp for it by Creditcard. After that I logged in and I could download it immediately as I am doing now.

Force_Feedback Posted April 9, 2005 Author Posted April 9, 2005 Damn, dont tell that happens to everyone? Do you mean it always takes 3 days? 3 damn days? Im so dumb, i should have created the paypal account earlier and load the money in. Damn again and again... Yes, three damn days :( And because paypal is based on the care-free mind (credit cards) we have to wait for so long. Europe should create a unified online billing system, not based on credit cards or bank transfers. I already feel the Starforce problems coming. I bought a legal CD once from Russia (battlecruiser millenium) it had Starforce on it, well, installed the thing, everything was great, BAM game hangs. The game hung on exactly the same point, and I got some kind of stupid error message. I thought: OK, be cool, just go to the publishers' site and download an update. Went to the Akella web site, found an update that was 6 versions behind the English ones.... After that starforce didn't let me play at all (with original cd in drive). Too bad we can't have a refund with online purchases, I'm really sceptical about this starforce spyware roming on my system. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
Jester_159th Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 If you're not using a credit card for payment then there's a delay while the money is transfered from your bank to theirs. And three days isn't too bad. Inter-bank transfers can take up to five working days ( so you'd wait seven in that case if you had a weekend in the middle). That's the way banks work. Don't see why you're trying to blame ED or anyone else for this.
