Hi,

Hello, I was very happy to purchase the Mega Pack today, especially with the discount which is very generous of you. However, upon attempting to download the Mega Pack, the file size shown is obviously too small or the file may be corrupt. I have sent E-mails to both Slitherine support and Plimus for help. This is incredibly discouraging since I was looking forward in playing the later campaigns today but can't.

Just curious, but does anyone test the links that are sent to customers? I realize this is a Plimus problem but they should be accountable in making sure the product is ready.

My hope is that someone in higher management will be able to ensure that Plimus will be ready for the Allied Corps download which will be coming soon. Could they please test those links so this doesn't cause a problem again?

Thanks for your attention.

When I bought the game didn't it register? Where do I find registration? If I buy and install mega pack do I have to follow that Grand Campaign tree?

We're sorry to anyone with problems. We tested everything in every contract so at the moment don't know why some links are not working. When we get in to the office we'll be chasing Plimus to find out. So yes we did test it, not that it helps.

The download issue has been found and fixed. Sorry about that guys - not sure how it was missed as these were checked yesterday before launch.

Well when I saw the 70% discount for owning all 10 DLC I was a bit irritated. I expected the discount to be higher, but then I read the explanation about the production cost and the need to break even I fully understand. The $15 I paid for the physical boxed copy are completely fair. Finally I can delete 5.15 GB on data from the 10 dlc installers +1 patch installer.

One quick question. Where do I register my mega pack serial here on Slitherine? I don't find a Mega Pack option in this drop down box. On the Matrix site the serial was added automatically to the registered list when I bought the pack however.

Dragoon, you just have to login in multiplayer, and the new serial numbers will be automatically registered in your account. :)

Maybe I didn't ask the question right, I only have the base game, didn't it register when I bought it? When I buy the Mega pack will I still have the option to just play base game tree, Looked at other post that stated I would but am still unsure with upgrades, should I go to another post to get answer there. Since I have no other DCL's I won't be getting any discounts I know that Full price :twisted:

Having a little trouble getting my 70% discount. I prefer to go thru Matrix since they have handled all my previous buys, but after selecting Matrix radio button for my coupon choice the pop up informs me that I should be sure I want a Slitherine coupon before choosing YES. I chose NO and tried again twice with the same result. Since it is a one time only coupon offer I want to be certain. Please advise.

If you aren't give the chance to go through Matrix, just go through Slitherine shop. There's no difference at all. The discount is always made through Slitherine account anyway.

It is the same but it is highly confusing. I had the same issue, choosing Matrix still generated the Slitherine code. Plus if there is no difference between the shops why different codes?

We've tested it a number of times but you can only do it once. The first option you choose is the one that it generates. If you change your mind later you cant change. The stores are not linked so coupons cant be made to work in both stores. There are many technical hurdles we had to overcome that you guys don't see which is why it is the way it is so apologies to anyone having trouble but it was the best we could do! It is all related to having multiple sites on different operating systems and OS's. They just don't play nicely together, plus different user lists with different passwords. We want to sort it out but its a huge job and too many other issues get in the way right now.

I can only imagine the shit storm that will come down whenever your company decide to have both user sets from Matrixgames and Slitherine merged together. I feel the social focus has moved from matrix to the slithering forums and I already adapted to that, but my matrix account is over a decade old and there is a lot of history connected with. I'm just dropping words like home depot of wargaming, Steel Panthers and the Matrix version of Gary Grigsby 's Pacific War (1992).

It didn't move, it's a mess now... you want some activity with Panzer Corps you come here. ToF on the other hand is dead here and alive at Matrix... a merge would be great.
