I've pre-ordered already although it seems to be more of a 'Who is interested' type of deal. You send an e-mail with your name, and address and your age and thats it. When the thing is actually released you will receive an email with information of how to pay for it and receive it. They are talking about it being on 2 dvds this time so I seriously doubt it will be a download affair.
Like I said elsewhere 50$ (£25 or so) is, IMO, steep for a mod but very cheep considering how much i am likely to play it. Don't really begrudge them it at all.
I like the claims system in the current phase but i agree that if what they are saying for the new version is true it should probably be optional. I can see it getting old very fast for some people (possibly including me I must add but I'll have to see.) regardless of how irritating it might turn out to be, though, they get my full respect for doing something that, to my mind, has never been done before. That can only be a good thing.
