That's exactly what I said! I didn't even know anything about the game till maybe a week ago.

Just checked and it lists them as me having them too. Don't plan on playing MP but it's nice to have gotten them with the game anyway.

Same.

Holiday sales always make me hate the fact that I have an Internet download cap and have to share it with 3 other people. Ha. About to kiss at least 15 GB goodbye.

Just imagine if they still dished them out... self-replicating coupons.

Do those. If those don't make you go WHOA, then the game will be a bust. But I'd be willing to bet it'd satisfy the urge for most people. (mind you, using a walkthrough on the Kingsmouth code will defeat the purpose and leave you wanting)

Thanks for the heads-up! I'm just beginning to do quests in Kingsmouth and am totally loving the amazing variety of quests. I haven't really played an MMO since I first played Guild Wars around launch, so TSW is, to me, a real breath of fresh air.

• The real world merged with secret societies, occult, and all other types of cool magiclike things is really neat.
• Combat so far is a lot of fun and feels snappy and responsive. Even with two starting skills I feel like I'm really making an impact and kicking ass right away. I'm tired of feeling like a baby lamb when I start some RPGs.
• Quest structure is terrific. I haven't played an MMO in ages but I am truly enjoying the variety and multi-tiered nature of the quests. In other words, you're not just filling a quota or fetching something all the time. I feel like they add to the story and give you a sense of being a part of the world.
• I haven't joined a group yet, but so far I really like how TSW handles solo play. In a way it's as if they considered casual, single players like me first rather than design around group play. Having said that, I do look forward to playing with you guys and gals online because these powers and skills are just too fun not to use them in a group

Tony, thanks for the awesome deal on this game. I think the combination of the price and subscription fee drop was the perfect storm this holiday season.
TSW CAGS, thanks so much for championing this game these last couple of months. I would never, ever have looked into it unless so many of you justified your praise for it.

My character is "Bugtong" on Grim, so please add me to the CAG group Seeya online!

P.S. Oh, and to confirm, YES, I did get Issue #5, so hopefully the rest of your post-midnight purchasers/registrants also get this along with the December goodies.

Same here finaly decided to get it. Never even heard of TSW until a few days ago and never played a mmo.

My thoughts exactly. Let the man have some fun time away from the "office"

Damn TSW Download is moving so slow! Curse my 1MB a second download speed.

It's not updated on the front page, but Torchlight is now $3.75 instead of the posted deal of $4.99 for anyone interested in it.

Well if you are downloading from Amazon you can try downloading straight from Funcom, or vice versa.

I've heard neither are giving very good download speeds lately. Personally I downloaded it really quickly but I got mine off of Steam and I also paid more.

Likely just a Steam price match.

so i've only got 57 gb left on my hard drive (really should have sprung for the 500gb ssd instead of the 250)

so how much space does the secret world take?
the page says 30gb but everyone keeps mentioning 15gb
if it is only 15, i am gonna get it

Sorry, I read "Buttgong" at first.

I'll post my char names to the CAG group once I create some tonight.

You curse at that and I get happy when I get 450kb

ROFL!!!
I can see it now, a mass of CAGers joining TSW and asking Tony while ingame to PM games on Amazon.

I am only getting 1.5MB-2MB too, but still much faster than PSN.

Originally Posted by TwistedShade Damn TSW Download is moving so slow! Curse my 1MB a second download speed.

mine was going good until about 5 minutes ago. now it shows I have to wait 66 more hours. it must have been the flood of CAGS finally breaking down and getting it.

God damnit, I should've waited for the possibility of 12.49 TWD pre-coupon. I didn't think there was any chance with the Steam sale being over soon and it already having that as a daily deal. Also, didn't know the 2K packs or Spec Ops would be part of the EC deal, so I got the D to S bundle with coupon and ended up with extra Bioshock keys rather than just using my coupon on the Strategy pack, ahh man I'm too compulsive

Looking forward to the sales this month, though! At least Darkness 2 will be available for 2.49 AC, although not sure if I should just get the WTF pack for an extra Borderlands key for a friend. Hopefully TWD does hit that 7.49 price AC, will pickup an extra code for a friend.
