It seems release is delayed by one week. They shifted it from today, 17th Oct., to the 24th, says unconfirmed info.

I have still not read any info about the copy protection it uses.
I hope their hesitation to announce it does not mean somethign bad.

The offical fourms for this game if I remember it correctly.
I remember they were saying that Russians who already have it were saying that the campagine gets boreing (probably because there is only one type of than to command), and some other stuff. But maby the English version will be better, this was form the russian versoin.

It still might be fun.

From what I have read you really dont want to try it, its an unofficial early build or something. Heaps of bugs. Maybe a proper demo will show up post release.

I received my copy of TvT in the mail a few days ago. It installed correctly(I thought) with no error messages. When I selected the first mission to get acquainted with the game the mission loads normally starting with the outside camera view of my tank. The problem is the camera spins continuously around the tank. The inside views are screwed up as well. I uninstalled/re installed and the camera continues to spin although now it's spinning at a slower rate.

I read of this somewhere awhile ago and the solution to fix it but cannot find the thread now that I have the game. I checked my system 32 folder and I do have both the missing dll's that some folks are having problems with.

Anyone have any ideas? Hate to say this Skybird but perhaps I should have listened to you. I'm certainly not getting a warm and fuzzy feeling over this game yet.

I have the same problem with some of my games. You have a joystick plugged in? Removing the (USB) joystick usually solves the problem for me......can't tell for TvT 'cause I don't have the game.

Actually, yeah I do. I'll unplug it and see what happens. I never thought of that.

Thanks for the suggestion.
