Shame, but I am glad I asked before I bought it. 59.99 for a product with no reasonable expectation to have properly patched, which they will probably leave full of glitches perpetually?
Mate, that's cheap as chips.Pre-Order in Australia was $120.00.
The thing that made vCoh great was the community. It was on GR.org back then, but it was still great. At the time, i was a lvl 10 Ami player - not bad, but not good either. Despite this, i was still able to talk strategy and even play a game against some of the pro players - Zer0crack, SaynotoStim, etc, and they all helped me with my game. Don't think you'd get anything like that in SC2.
Additionally, the history side of things is very intruiging. vCoh allowed you to play through Caen, Carentan, the D-Day landings. etc etc, and even the German and British camppaings later on. These 2 things will still be prevalent in COH2. Why not just wait and see how it goes? $60 is not much mate. You could always come to Aus and spend double that?
