MAsta_KFC 0 Posted June 29, 2002 Codemasters have REALLY let down BIS. I don't know why BIS still sticks with them. With a little more advertising/marketing, OPF would have been so much more sucessful. And also us Aussies would get OPFR on the 28th aswell if they distributed it properly.

HellToupee 0 Posted June 29, 2002 my compter hating brother was telling me how cool ghost recon is before hes even seen it ive had ofp for a year and he has only just realised he never even heard of it. I found out about ofp by a fluke other wise it would have been just another box on the shelf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mask 0 Posted June 29, 2002 Yeah guys same here. I've been to every major shop in Brussels and still no one has it or even knows about it! This sucks big time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted June 29, 2002 Damn! No resistance in Sweden either... In a big shop in Sweden, they just said that they were waiting for the distributor to send them some copies of the game. But on their website it stands that ofp:r should be released yesterday. So i dont think that it's the shops fault, it is codemasters that never sends some copies in time. It can take a month longer for the games to be distributed if the games aren't scandinavian. Thats bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedStorm 0 Posted June 29, 2002 It'll be released around 2nd of jult...count on it...damn Codemasters. Why do they say Resistance released in europe while it should say. "we, as the dumbasses we are, only released it in two European countries. The rest should just fucking wait"? This really sucks.

cpl_BOB 0 Posted June 29, 2002 why do BIS even use codemasters? even UBI soft do a better job of advertising. I hope for BIS's sake, they ditch that crappy british distributor, and go with a well respected company, eg UBI itself,, ubi may be crap, but nowhere near as crap as codemasters. yes im a brit to, our economy is going down the drain, and our society along with it.

RedStorm 0 Posted June 29, 2002 This is the last game I'm ever going to buy which is published by Codemasters. You have to agree, that this really does suck a lot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NEO -PZ- 0 Posted June 29, 2002 First they said 21st of June, for the world. Then delayed one week, 28th for the world, except Scandinavia - 26th! Scandinavia release moves to 28th and US release to 2nd (?) of July. Europe gets OFP:R 28th, except for Scandinavia and Benelux, delayed until 2nd of July. And I had planned spending the whole weekend discovering Nogova, but now I'll have to do that after work on Tuesday, crap. Just can't wait. /[6th] Neo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedStorm 0 Posted June 29, 2002 yea. The problem is that I'm having an exam week so I won't be able to play this week and next week, which even sucks more. I only had time to play this weekend, which Codemasters utterly screwed up now too. Thanks Codemasters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
