I told him I would be interested in buying a lot of SH4 and sell to you guys, especially guys in Canada and overseas who cannot get the game bonus materials, or whatever it is that Ubi has been hinting at. I told him that most of the people who visit Subsim probably have already preordered the game through Ubi or some other website, so I don't think Subsim will be able to sell many copies, but I was still interested, under two conditions.

1. I have to know with a high degree of confidence when the game will be shipped to Subsim, so I can give a date to people who buy it.

2. I need to have a guarantee with regards to the "bonus materials" and "Collector's Edition" variety. I doubt they can get this info, since Ubi has not told anyone what the heck they are doing. I do not want 100 people to buy the game from Subsim and end up mad about missing a $1 map or some geegaw. Ubi was pretty smart to stir this up.

Anyway, I'm still going to rely on Amazon, when they finally are able to turn on their preorder again. But I would be interested in your thoughts….

Chips… I miss you. :cry:

Neal,

If someone is going to Pre-order, then I would think that he or she would want to get the Collector's Edition and everything that would normally come with it, no matter where they get it from and obviously we don't want to get the game after everybody else, which is what it sounds like, if we get it directly from you.

Anyway, so I guess you're now waiting for an answer to your two questions. When do you expect to get a response?

P.S. You might be surprised how many folks will get it thru you, either by Amazon or otherwise.

hi Fred,

thanks, but I have not gotten an anser from Amazon, because he says his buyer is waiting for an answer from Ubi. I'm sure Ubi is hoping to sell a lion's share from their store, and I do not blame them, they get a much bigger cut that way. I'm advising folks to order where they feel most comfortable, do not take a chance and not get what you want. If a guy orders from Ubi and gets what he wants, good.

Once the game comes out and Amazon and Ubi are equal, I will clean off all the Ubi links in the forum and direct new buyers to the Subsim/Amazon store. That will work out ok for me, I think.

cheers

Well I got an E-Mail from UBI inviting me to be one of the first to buy the "Deluxe" Edition in the Tin can with Recce Manual/Maps/medals, plus an extra video and of course the game on DVD ROM @ £49.99.....With the assurance that I would receive one of ONLY 3000 units worldwide to be made in the Deluxe Version, with a certificate of authenticity and number. :up:

Ordered mine same day I received my E-mail. :D

I always laugh when I see that on a gas pump: $2.08 99/100. Okay, if I buy ten gallons I'll save one whole penny. HOORAY!!!

And only £25 for delivery, I'll wait for Neal's link to Amazon to come online.:ping:

So what exactly do you get in this :hmm: ...yet another version :doh:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Silent-Hunte...8&s=videogames

http://shop.ubi.com/SH4/UK/

http://shop.ubi.com/SH4/UK/

This seems to only be available at the UK site for Ubi.com, but can be ordered for overseas delivery.

I think there are 3 versions, but some local/national versions might vary if there are different suppliers.:ping:

Yes, much confusion over this.

Here's one breakdown:

Deluxe Edition:
Only 3000 copies made available worldwide. Sold only through Ubi's UK store and shipped worldwide.

US/Canada
Get a regular, non-CE version.
Initially, all these copies will ship with extra goodies. At some point, some or all of the extra's will be removed and just the basic game contents will be included.

Collectors Edition:
Made available to the rest of the world with a few contents varying regionally.

Clear as mud.

Neal can you fix the link in the first post? I want to order but want to make sure Subsim gets credit.

Looks like it's linked correctly already.

Got it! Ships 3/17 for 3/21 delivery.

And, I got a $30 discount! That's $18 delivered for this one, which beats the heck out of $140 or so to Ubi.uk, even if I don't get a pen or tin box.

Yes, you received a good deal, though the Deluxe Edition features a lot more than just the pen and tin box (not to confuse others).

The DE version has some nice gadgets but the only reason I want it is the 60min documentary (which you lucky bastards get for 'free':p).
