Pre-purchase RO2 on Steam!

Americans don't pay extra tax for games.... You really can't blame TWI because your country or European Union wants to charge you extra to collect even more taxes.

Will the game be uncut in germany, when i order the per-order the game? And if it will be cut, what would be cut?
If i pre-order RO2 now, will it be like a early german KF version (i hope you know what i mean) ???
We are waiting on the rating from USK, but are expecting them to insist on cuts (probably removing dismemberment). Steam page being updated to reflect that risk for Germans.
If i buy over Steam to get the DDE, and later let Valve swap out the Game with a Game code from the UK Version (living in Germany and prefering my Games uncut, yes i'd buy 2 Games).
Do i loose the "benefits" of the DDE ? Or would i keep em. Yes i know its a kinda complicated Topic
I think you'd lose them - they'd stay with the original game - but I'm not 100% sure!
If i own the original Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45.
Can i buy 2-3 copies of RO2 with 20% off for all copies or its only counts for 1 copy of the game?
No idea, come to think of it - do me a favor and try it, see what happens? Obviously just check your basket and stop short of spending extra cash!
Sweet. I'm not really fond of games that have pre-order benefits other than discounts but I see why you guys did all that, especially for Hat Fortress 2.
A question though, when does the last beta phase start?
It isn't a pre-order incentive - it is a permanent feature for RO1 owners.
I believe the UK version has been rated, along with the rest of (non-German) Europe without any cuts.
The price for Europe INCLUDES VAT, so take that back off before doing the exchange rate calc. If you'd read my original thread carefully, you'd see that point
In the US the nearest equivalent is "Sales Tax", which is added ON TOP of the price - and is variable by State and even by parts of Counties.If we've been a little too generous in our calcs for the UK, we can always nudge the price back up a bit for you
?I didn't know that - will check on it with Valve. They're probably not aware of that little wrinkle either...
The problem, atleast from what I read, is that Europeans are being asked to pay 35 Euros while NA pay $40. The problem is that 35 Euro != 40 American. TWI promised that the Euro price would be adjusted to be the same as the NA price (before taxs). If it isn't then the Europeans end up paying more then Americans because 35 Euro is worth more then 40 American.
Edit: Nvm I got confused with how it was all set up... my bad

Up to you! I'm leaving for college again on the 1st of September, so the extra gameplay before classes is MUCH appreciated!!!
From the "About" page:
And coming after release:
Co-op: Players can connect with their friends and battle AI in multiple game types including the Stalingrad Campaign, Skirmish Mode, and more.
Offline Challenges: Offline challenges such as the shooting range and assault courses let the player learn and hone their skills to perfection with all of the weapons and features in the game. Training with different challenges to achieve awards, win competitions and improve their skills the player can pit their best times/scores against the rest of the online gaming community.
New vehicles: We will roll out new vehicles for the game, including new tanks as well as armored transports.
The only thing here that bums me out is that there won't be some kind of shooting range upon release. I bought a whole bunch of copies for friends that have never played RO before, and having a shooting range/training map would've likely been the only way they'd have gotten to fire off some shots before getting brutally pwned online. =]

Thanks for clearing that up. I'll look forward to having those badges whenever I get my boxed copy.
As others have said, it will be great to hear some details on a NA collector's version soon. Hopefully the collector's boxed version will also unlock the KF skins?
I can confirm that if you own RO1, you can gift an unlimited number of copies to friends, and each gift copy will have the %20-off discount applied.
I just bought 6 gift copies at $32 USD apiece.
(In my case, most of these copies were for coworkers that likely wouldn't have bought the game at full price... so hopefully you don't feel too taken-advantage-of, TWI. ;])
(Edit: Woah, unintended quad-posted somehow. Sorry!)

Info from where? I can't imagine that it would be uncut. Because... all games with gore are cut in germany
I'm waiting to know when beta starts, so I will preorder the game. 8 euro is too much onestly for a beta. I know that there are other content, it is not a criticism to tripwire
27,99 euro is a great price.

They still have the whole SP campaign (2 of them, in fact), which includes training maps...
Do I understand it right that it is uncut at the moment? And steam just says "Low Violence bla bla" as a warning? Hm... but it could get cut till release, right? Or does it just can get cut after release?
I'm confused
Mh i would really like to get the Deluxe Edition of RO2 but im also from Germany and it would be bad if i only get an uncut version
Could maybe a member of this forum gift the version to me? I could pay the person with paypal in before without the extra 10% (because i think this wont work with a gift). Would be really great. I was looking forward to this game for so long now.

For all those asking about when the beta access for pre-orders is going to start. It will happen before the release. That is all the info we're ready to give right now. Suffice it to say you'll get your hands on the game a lot sooner than everyone else
Missing 3 weeks, as you might not know when to release the beta?
