If you're going to pull charts on us to show off, at least have the decent courtesy to convert the figures in the same currency  . ... I considered it, but then someone might read this in 5 minutes when the exchange rates change and ask me to update it Also, I just realized people might have seen my reply as the other way around - I was trying to say the EU wasn't a small market to try out a release in...

No problem for the wait. I am not going to pre-order because I already have Silent Hunter 3 and I am waiting for the US dollar to plunge, till I can pay for COD in monopoly money; on April 26th.  "Do you have change for a button?" -Monty Burns

Instead of complaining about SPAD 7s, Central pilots should capture and fly them too. I suggest putting an apple in the middle of your Aerodrome field and just wait. Eventually a SPAD 7 will come by to get the apple, cause SPADS can't resist apples. This is how the Entente gets a hold of SPAD 7s, m-kay?

Launch in a small market, where issues (and lets all be honest, this thing is gonna be rough when it first touches down) can be fixed and applied before expanding the launch window.
I feel your pain, but I should point out that the EU has a population of almost 500 million. This is the first time I've heard the EU being referred to as a small market. Indeed, if you factor in the added complications of diverse languages, cultures and legal domains, the reverse could be argued. If I recall correctly, Americans buy less sims-per-capita (at least based on sales of Pacific Fighters) - so the market may be smaller in the States.

I ordered Black Shark on 21 Feb 2011 and after bugging them for a email they said they sent my game and manual ($94) by airmail.
It's now 16 Mar 2011 and I still haven't recieved anything. These people lie every chance they get. I complained on their forum
and they banned me for a year! I'm 64 years old and I really don't care about some nothing game company in the UK but I don't like being lied to and having someone steal my money. Thats why we're the United States and they worship indoor plumbing.
I've had nothing but bad experiences ordering from outside the USA. Don't do it. You should be able to pick Black Shark at any Best Buy store, if you're in the USA. Or you can pay a little more and order from Amazon.com (U.S.) and get it in two days. Why order from some other country?

It's on steam or direct2drive for something like $20 isn't it? Also, what's this about plumbing worship?
If I recall correctly, Americans buy less sims-per-capita (at least based on sales of Pacific Fighters) - so the market may be smaller in the States.
Just curious, where did you get that info? I'm not calling you out (sadly, that does sound about right), but I'd love to dig through a data source that tracks that sort of thing.

Seeing dates all over the place in the 1c forums. Looks like it MIGHT still ship earlier in Europe? In today's market it's crazy to do international releases more than a few days apart. Wouldn't be surprised if it's late April for everyone. We've waited HOW many years for this? I can wait another month. But I wish they'd delayed sooner, because I was already in the "it's out next week!" excitement phase.

The delay is to remove steam because of the boycott yay That would be superb. But I doubt it to be the case. I too hate steam. The only thing I like on steam is a steam engine. Further nothing.

Surely the download version is the same date all over. GetGames preorder download claims 31 March release date.
