Title: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: ShenMolo on October 05, 2009, 05:29:23 AM Direct 2 Drive has a special on Mount & Blade download for $5.
I had always heard good things about this but never tried it. For the price of lunch it was well worth it. What a charming game! Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Stormwaltz on October 05, 2009, 07:37:04 AM Get it fast, though; the D2D sale changes what's on sale in 3 hours.
http://www.direct2drive.com/d2dturns5 Next up is "wargames." I shudder to imagine what a mainstream gaming site will define as a "wargame."

Brace yourself for C&C, Call of Duty, and some Rainbow Six. Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Yegolev on October 05, 2009, 09:13:26 AM I'm betting Call of Duty or one of the Battlefields.
Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Teleku on October 05, 2009, 10:52:56 AM Or Company of Hero's, Supreme Commander, and World in Conflict?
Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Yegolev on October 05, 2009, 11:05:19 AM I'm changing mine to Supreme Commander.
Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Kageh on October 05, 2009, 11:53:18 AM Funnily enough, the UK site has C&C3. Although it is "EA games" week there. Seeing as it is also on the UK site, Battleforge comes to mind as a "wargame", too!
Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Severian on October 06, 2009, 06:26:39 AM Now $5 @ D2D (http://www.direct2drive.com/d2dturns5) (10.05.09 - 10.11.09)
Company of Heroes Gold Supreme Commander Gold World in Conflict Gold Edition Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade Battlestations: Pacific Codename: Panzers - Cold War Brothers In Arms: Road to Hill 30 Delta Force: Land Warrior Delta Force: Task Force Dagger Mount & Blade still available for $5, as one of the 20 holdovers from past categories. I assume it will be gone on the twelfth. Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: pants on October 07, 2009, 07:54:40 PM Mount and Blade is good.
Bargain price makes it extra good. Buy it and help turks. Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: ShenMolo on October 12, 2009, 10:19:44 AM I'm loving Mount&Blade.
If you are going to try this out, just get your key from D2D and the game itself from the developer. Don't bother downloading from D2D as that version doesn't work on many of the Mods available. You can download the full version from the Taleworlds website and demo it to character level 7. Then use the $5 key from D2D if you like it to unlock the full game. Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Threash on October 12, 2009, 07:55:28 PM Why not just buy it from the developers then? is that not posible anymore?
Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: FatuousTwat on October 12, 2009, 07:57:53 PM The mods really make M&B shine.

I imagine the point is that through the devs it costs a lot more than $5 Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Stormwaltz on October 13, 2009, 06:42:23 AM I imagine the point is that through the devs it costs a lot more than $5 Yes, $30. Though they deserve full price. Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: ShenMolo on October 13, 2009, 07:51:40 AM I imagine the point is that through the devs it costs a lot more than $5 Yes, $30. Though they deserve full price. I agree it is worth the full price. But I probably would have never tried if I hadn't seen the $5 D2D offer. I didn't know about the demo until after I bought the game. From the influx of noobs like me on the Taleworld forums it seems the promo is paying off with customers and dollars they would not have otherwise seen, right in time for a release of M&B 2! Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Tarami on October 13, 2009, 08:11:40 AM M&B 2! Not M&B II, but there's an expansion coming "soon(ish)", Warband, with multiplayer (skirmishes), better graphics and some other stuff.Title: Re: Mount & Blade $5 at D2D Post by: Teleku on October 13, 2009, 09:18:45 AM Luckily the serial number I bought 4 years ago still works fine!

Well, yes, but I barely played my copy, so I'm content with whatever steam-sale price it was that I got mine for. |
