I have 2 question:

1) I live in Argentina (Latin America), and i was going to buy a digital copy of the game until i notice that the languages available for my region were Spanish and Portuguese. This really piss me off because i play all my games in English, is the game multilanguage, or you are limited to the languages available in your region???. Please say i can buy the English version:cry:!!!

2) does the game have a skirmish mode in single player so i can play solo like all C&C had? ( at least until C&C4:shadedshu)


Thanks!!!

why dont you just download it at a USA server so you can get the english version or does it not work that way?

I thought about that, i'm waiting to see what others say, maybe that's the solution, or maybe not, why the F*** isn't multilanguage so the user can choose the language.

If you mean as in against(or with, even) an AI opponent, then yes. Single Player tab > Verse AI opponent, iirc.

Been playing for a bit today, anyone else notice the FPS dips in random places? some cut scenes so far and at the command center where "ALOT" SCV's are gathering... dips to like 40's on my i7 4ghz...

Weird? Are there just some parts of the games that aren't yet optimized?

So yours are always at 60FPS? Hmmm... if so then it must be because my HT is off OR... the fact I'm using 10.4's

okay I found my problem, the game seems to have a memory leak, sorry for double post.

My fps is 60FPS.... all the time but the longer I play the lower the FPS goes down.. but only goes down on certain parts, but it shouldn't in the first place.

I guess its similar to Sims 3 and Dragon Age leaks I had.



EDIT: Now its just become choppy =.= ... and stuck at 30fps sigh

Some more interesting and disappointing tidbits of info:
- Blizzard is said to have spent 100million to make the game


The $100m they spent is the amount spent on both the game and the new battle.net.

I like the new BattleNet. You know they had to release this and at least one of the add-ons before D3 comes out. It's a Battle.net warmup. It is cool how you can find other peeps in other Blizzard games, my bro and I found each other in a second to play multi player.. He was in WOW.
