Eurpoean vs. American version DW, which one to purchase?

liuzg150181 · 08-09-06, 01:06 AM

It is easier for me to get the American version( as a matter of fact it seems impossible for me to get the European one right now), but the European version is bolstered up with additional campaigns and mission, and a documentary plus manual!

So would i miss anything great should i buy the American version, or should i just wait for the European version to be made avaliable? Or via special channel?

The Europeanversion is actually pretty good (the Red Storm Rising Campaign, extra missions etc.) but there's only a pretty useless printed manual. The really detailed one is on CD and only comes as an English PDF file. Another important fact is that you can't use the LWAMI mod if you've got the European version (that's what I've heard). If that doesen't bother you then I'd say get the European version.

Points taken.

It seems tempting to get hold of the European version, but i dont live in Europe, much less Uk, so how do i go about getting it?:hmm:

You could try to order it from BlackBean or you go to amzon or ebay. However you will not get my copy!:p

Since I don't have a cat (as a matter of fact I don't have pets nor siblings) this will be quite challenging for you!:rotfl:
