Ageod Press Announcement

For Immediate Release
             
They Shall Not Pass

Ageod's game commemorating WW1 is now available!

Grenoble, France, August 26, 2014.

"This war, like the next war, is a war to end war." (David Lloyd George – UK Prime Minister)


One hundred years ago today, Russian and German forces were standing facing each other in East Prussia. This early confrontation on the Eastern Front – known as the Battle of Tannenberg - resulted in the almost complete destruction of the Russian Second Army and the suicide of their main commander, Samsonov. On the German side the battle made Paul von Hindenburg famous for the rest of the war, and proved that moving troops quickly by train could bring a decisive advantage. Technology was an asset that could make all the difference in the years to come...

In To End All Wars - their new Grand Strategy game dedicated to WW1 - Ageod (http://www.ageod.com/) aim to reproduce in detail this conflict that involved all of the main powers of this period. The AGE engine has been especially enhanced in order to cover the specifics of this war. New technologies, trenches, war plans, aerial and armored units, and an original diplomatic system have been implemented to simulate the Great War with a high level of realism.

Today we are proud to announce that the game is finally released! Players can now embrace a new military career by leading the destiny of one the major WW1 alliances that fearlessly fought, not only for Europe, but also for Africa and Asia. The game allows a high degree of freedom in terms of decisions, so battles, diplomatic relations, political events and war production will depend on player's choices.

In order to celebrate the release we are offering a $5 discount to the early adopters during the week of the launch! Note that To End All Wars will be released on Steam as well on August 29th and that this version will also benefit from the launch discount. We are also going to offer a free Steam key to anyone who has a copy the game, wherever they bought it from, once the game is available on this digital platform!

I buckled. 

It's AGEOD so I'm not concerned about adopting it early.   O0

Looks Booty-ful.



EDIT:  I'm just wondering why the BlueSnap store was running so slowly.  Took a few minutes for it to process my payment and obviously much longer to actually send me the d/l and key via email, which hasn't arrived.  ???

I did too, but now I'm waiting on an email so I can download...

I just edited.  ;D

They weren't kidding when they said you may have to wait an hour (or more?) to get it.   With the amazing speed of the modern digital world, you gotta wonder what the holdup is.

I've never been really thrilled with the Matrix/Slitherine/AGEOD payment processor and order fulfillment providers. They really do seem to be using decade-old technology.

Granted, first-world problem and all that, but it's cruel to c*cktease me with all those beautiful screenshots and that video, and then make me wait to download!

I bought it from Matrix. Processed in about a minute and took about 5 minutes to download. Installation took about 5 minutes. Not bad. I've never had luck with AGEOD the site, but rarely have problems with Matrix or Steam.

I was just surprised that I had to leave the page "processing" for a few minutes.  I've rarely had it take so long.  It finally went through, but there's obviously some slowdown on the side of the 3rd party store they're using.  At least it didn't pop up with some time-out error as I feared it would for taking so long.

Perhaps that "BlueSnap" store had a huge run on To End All Wars tonight.  Or Battlefield Twelve just released and they're the only ones selling it.  ;D  Something is slowing them down.  It's been 45 minutes and no email.  You guys must be running them ragged.

Bought from Matrix as well. Looks like you snuck in under the wire!

I just speculated over at Matrix that BlueSnap is actually an elderly British woman manually processing payment information and sending email. It's late in the UK, Nef and I must have ordered after her bedtime! :)

Having the same issue here.

I buckled earlier in the day and got it almost immediately.  I think this Bluesnap is a new processing service for them - all the games I gotten from Matrix this is the first time I've seen the name.  Could be they weren't prepared for the volume.

[Nefaro]

I also plan to pick up Hannibal: Terror Of Rome sometime soon.  I'll just have to remember to do it in the middle of the day when the gerbil isn't falling off it's wheel from exhaustion.  :))

[panzerde]

Download email just showed up. Took about two hours, total.

Must've batch processed them.  So did mine.

Plumes changed their name to BlueSnap

So it's still Plimus?  I wonder why they changed their name?  ^-^
