Maybe we could test that enhanced online mode at some point, seeing that we're both in Germany

an online match without lag would be nice

Psycho - are you up my neck of the woods? I'm in Co. Durham. I was just re-reading this for some insane pleasure and noticed your DHL tracking from last year was in the Teesside area - if so I reckon our packages could be on the same van this year....

Is it only Jan 22nd...so far the info coming from the guys at CD seems to be encouraging...going to be a long month or so...must try and banish thoughts of it all for a little while!

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

Yes, still up here (though not from here).

If i remember rightly my package last year came out of the Teesside depot so im pretty certain ours will be on the same van

And yes, the CD stuff is jaw dropping isnt it?

The wait is on...

Oh yeah, I remember DanteLeroi from last year's waiting frenzy at the mlbtheshowuk forum! We should gather all players from Germany and start a "mini-league" I know a couple more.

*Oh, and if you're into indie music Dante, my band's playing in Darmstadt next month! (shameless self-promotion over)

Pre-ordered my copy last night, just awaiting confirmation on the DHL delivery....probably get something on Monday for that.

Cant wait till the tracking stuff comes in... too much excitement for a 30 year old man to take!

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

How much more does DHL delivery cost?
And how long does it take via standard shipping?
Because I'm still so deep in my franchise that a week more wouldn't kill me.

DHL shipping with VG+ to the UK is an extra 29.99CAD..which is about £20...standard shipping to the UK normally takes on average 5-7 days from despatch using Canadian Airmail.

How do Roolz, good to see you on this thread again mate....I'm the same as you, except I'm 10 years older! My wife just doesn't understand!

The tracking fever come March between me, you, Psycho et all is going to be a frenzy!

I think we've all learnt that paying that little bit extra for express delivery saves on the disappointment of the postie not showing up when you need him...roll on my holidays for that first week in March!

Hello mate, yeah its difficult to explain to the misses, especially it being an annual event!

Last year waiting for the postie was painful, so hopefully we dont crash the DHL website for tracking with all the refreshes

Knight - you're always welcome mate....at the moment for those of us that are paying extra for DHL shipping we could see it as early as Weds 3rd in the UK (if VG+ ship it on the Monday) but more than likely it'll be Thurs 4th - which is still pretty quick...just wish it would come quicker (the date that is)

Sure you are. We should test how the online improvements work this year accross the pond. I have to say I got to play some relatively smooth games with americans with both 08 and 09 (when both had good, fast connections)
