It's up on Impulse
In case you don't know Impluse is Stardock's "Steam like" service, SH5 is up and downloading now if you purchse it there.

Well that was fast, I figured an army of subsimmers would sign up to Impusle and kill my download but it's already downloaded and now installing.

What do you get as a download, a zip/rar package or some proprietary format that you can only use the Impulse client to install? Oh, and I would be using a proxy to purchase from outside US, not sure if it will let me download after purchase (as they say D2D allows) Well, enjoy your copy

There is the problem of most of us already having paid for it

Don't know about the proxy. It operates pretty much the same as steam, you use the Impluse client to download, install and run.

Quick tip If you buy it from Impluse:
When you launch the game the first time it's going to ask you for a Key. Right click on the SH5 line under My Games in Impulse and select View Registration to find the key.

So the game from Impulse has some kind of extra copy protection? Does it ask for a key when you launch the game from a SH5 shortcut OR is there an intermediary application you have the run to get to the game?
