Game not available in South Africa

[Acid Burn]

Hi all

Can anyone in the know please comment why Ashes Cricket Harcopy is nowhere to be found in South Africa ?

Only Online Site that shows it listed (Raru) , is showing "will be shipped in 10 to 15 working days"

Did the ship capsize

Any feedback on where the Stuf up is will be appreciated.

Do you have any conventional e-commerce sites like Amazon? Otherwise digital would be an option.

I'm also very much disappointed by that, I went the Raru route even if it means I'll have to wait till end of Nov, I would have opted for digital, but internet is crap

mayb eits a good thing, patch 1.04 broke the game! online is really bad now, and even on hardest/legend pretty easy to moer ball for six ;(

My thought as well when I read the posts, I'll wait to a more refined game,,,the waiting is killing me though

I might be in Port Elizabeth in December. It's crazy that SA seems to have been left out. If anyone is local I can bring some copies over.

Yes we have plenty of E-commerce Sites in SA , biggest is Takealot.

They dont even show that the game is on its way , have no knowledge of its existince.

 

[Master Khan]

it must suck to be cricket fan in South Africa, can't you guys order it from a different country?
The waiting must be killing you guys in South Africa.

 

[Acid Burn]

We have (2) Options :

• Import the game from another Country
• Download the digital version

Both of which I wont be doing .

Seeing how the Patches gets pushed out and breaks a,b,c , I think its safer to maybe wait for the physical copies to arrive.

I would just like some form of Feedback from BA , as they would be in the know as to why SA

don`t have the Game yet. Could be revenge for what we did to them last summer...

Let the rest of the World be the Beta Testers

 

[Langeveldt]

Apart from the bizarre patch 1.04, this game doesn't need beta testing.

I'm working in the UK which isn't my favourite place on earth, but being able to get the game where I couldn't in SA is a silver lining. I only left SA couple of weeks ago. I'd be willing to DHL a copy over but understand if the risks of buying off some random forum guy doesn't suit anyone.

It's not a stuff up as such - we could find not find a distributor in SA to commit to a reasonable price and number of units. Hopefully someone there comes to their senses and contacts us with reasonable terms.

It's quite bizarre really, not what I expected.

 

[Acid Burn]

Thanks for the feedback , quite bizarre as you state it.

Maybe contact the previous distributors ?

In SA , the biggest Footprint of Game Shops is probably BT Games , with a big amount of branches countrywide.

But I`m not sure if they would also fit into the distributor bracket , or only the final brick and mortar store re-seller.

 

[Acid Burn]

Thanks for the Offer Langeveldt.

Let me think about it for a while , will surely contact you if the itch becomes too much !

PS. I`m just tongue in cheek about the Beta Testing , I can gather from the feedback , that the game seems very close to being the "real thing"

A bit of fiddling here and there .

Apparently from my snippets from a couple of the more hardcore Online guys from SA and India , the general consensus is that the game is bloody good , but batting`s timing is slightly too easy on Legend difficulty .
