Canada not getting bonus material

[iski]

From what I've seen adn what I got told from UBI...canadaians are not getting bonus stuff... I called UBI and teh call teh store back..I called teh store the opened to more and same thing....disc, manual and code....store said call ubi....so now what....according to the packaging the disc was made in canada...lol....can any one HELP??

[elite_hunter_sh3]

ubi hates canada, b*****ds , i bought the game today because i support the DEV team not ubisoft, and i also support the silent hunter series, i never got bonus material with mine and i dont need it IMHO, too busy sinking ships and evading DD's

Another reason to hold off on buying it. Bloody hell. I never understand why Canada gets the short end compared to the US so often. Its not as if we don't have a strong gaming culture. Hell we make craploads of games too. Between Ubisoft Montreal and EA in Burnaby Canada is a hotbed for gaming. Why we get screwed on the receiving end likely has something to do with NAFTA. We get screwed by that so damned much.

I bought mine in Canada today and got nothing either. Not even a keyboard guide or a colored manual - just a black and white one. Very disappointing - it seems that Canadians are the only ones who will get no chance at bonus materials of any kind.

to be fair.. you are canadians... your greatest military achievement was you were the first to develop the ICBM




Intercontinental Balistic Moose... you got a moose drunk on Molsens and Maple syrup and launched it with a wooden catapult.


j/k

don't hit me

Is this just a problem with EB Games, or is this happening with all Canadian retailers? If EB Games was somehow responsible for the packaging disappearing, then I will try to get my money back and buy it elsewhere. But I imagine that this a national problem, and not with a particular retailer.

Have any Canadians bought their copies from another retailer - maybe Futureshop or Walmart?

[Arrowhead2k1]

Yeah, my manual is about a hundred pages. Only problem is, it's half English and half freaking French!

No DVD documentary either...

(UBI, I'm in Toronto. WE DON'T SPEAK FRENCH HERE!!)

Arrowhead2k1, where did you get your copy?

lol, pretty funny

But I have to point the following:

Vimy Ridge, The Somme, The Battle of the Atlantic, Juno, The Schelt, Ortona, Kapyong. Ever hear of a fella named Billy Bishop? I could go on.....

Got my copy of SH4 today at EB downtown Edmonton. I was disappointed too

Maybe it's because they just spent millions building a new studio in Montreal

It seems to be a National problem. I have been told that Ubisoft support is blaming EBGames saying that that was the version that they ordered. Trouble is that it also sems to be the version that Futureshop must have ordered.

No worries.

On the official Ubisoft Website, on the official Ubisoft forum, an official from Ubisoft posted the following...

================================================== =====

US/Canada Packaging
$49.99
Can be purchased from official Ubistore and major US/Canada Retailers and online stores
Available only for a limited time, no other versions available in US/Canada until time runs out

• Premium Packaging
• 100+ page manual including reference material
• Fold-out historical map of the Pacific theater
• Fold out ship recognition poster
• Quick Reference Card
• 1-hour of WWII-era documentary footage about U.S. submarines from Periscope Films on a Bonus DVD (Region 0/All)

================================================== =====

So this is a Ubisoft problem for them to solve. Contact them through Ubisoft support, respectfully point out that they have officially and publically committed to supply this material and request instructions on how you can receive it.

That sucks, picked my copy up just got home grabbed the patch and saw this post, opend up my package and Nada, paid $62.00 for disk and manual,ah well at least I can play the game,

[AG124]

I will contact them tomorrow morning. I don't see why Canadians should not be getting the promised materials, and I don't see how it could be EB Games or Futureshop's mistake (unless they opened and resealed each game, stealing the materials in the process, which I would regard as highly unlikely).

I too paid $62.00 for the game, but I expected bonus materials and still do.

Well the one I got was shrink-wrapped, so I'm pretty sure it was the real deal direct from Ubisoft.

Frustrating, but fixable.

Mine was shrinkwrapped too - didn't seem to have ever been opened.

Do Amazon.com orders shipped to Canada contain the bonus materials?
