Mystery Case Files: Dire Grove info and speculation!

Thanks Picman! whew, was searching all over to preorder this!!!

Thanks Picman

I am just going to wait until tomorrow morning unless I am still awake at 3:01 am EST

Tomorrow we are suppose to have awful weather so I guess I will be playing Dire Grove through the Dire weather Although I am sure it will not be as Dire as the weather in the game, well I hope not or I will not be able to download the game!

Hi Rose, where on the east coast are you? In in VA

I am a person *highly* suggestible and it is super easy for me to "immerse" in well crafted media - in other words my hubby laughs when I'm watching Deadliest Catch and have to put on a wrap and turn on my space heater. Just watching the *video* for Dire Grove had me shivering both with spooky and cold! I'm gonna need cocoa, my slippers, my electric throw and my fleece hat!

So, are most of you going to buy the CE or are you going to wait for the $6.99 version? I am really undecided whether I want to spend the extra $$ right now.

Also, my laptop has the following:

2.10 Ghz
4 GB

Do you think this game will run ok on it? My other games seem to run ok.

Thanks,

Just bought mine too. I'm sooooooooo excited!!!!

Please do not buy it until then. I assume those of you who did will be able to download from your purchase history when it does launch, but this is not "official" and worse case may require you to contact customer support.

Again, I am 90% certain you will be fine if you have pre-purchased it before the release, but I would advise waiting until it is released.

P.s. Like the rest of the page, the 973kb was simply placeholder while we tested the page.

Hi 1goodmom, I live in Florida You probably have some nice cold weather in VA! I would love some cold weather here. Later on in my life, instead of moving to Florida for retirement, I will be moving out of Fl

Yeah, Poodlebear, math never was my strong suit, LOL! Just so excited I can't count straight.

Very interesting observation about the "past and FUTURE" BTW

Move here, that should take care of any longing for cold weather

Is it here yet, is it here yet, is it here yet?!?

Recommended system requirements:
OS: Windows XP/Vista/7
CPU: 2.0 GHz
RAM: 1280 MB
DirectX: 9.0
Hard Drive: 600 MB

Note: The game may run on lower spec systems but there is the chance of poor performance during video and high motion sequences.

With a 1.3 GHz processor and only 1 gig of RAM, guess I'm up the well known tributary with no visible means of propulsion..............

Oh Well....... Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the Pond, and Happy Gaming to all the inhabitants with PCs that meet the minimum requirements!

So, I got this mail card in today's mail that advertised Dire Grove and in big letters said "AVAILABLE NOW!" So I come to bigfish and pay the $20 and try to download, only to receive an error message saying there is "temporary technical" trouble. What a disappointment. If you tell me a game is available now, how about making it available now?

I bet, I have considered Boston, or Seattle (that is if after I finish school I want to pursue a job on the west coast) I have also thought about Ohio and Montreal.

Yeah, I'm as excited as everyone else, but don't know that the 3:01 am thing will work for me, so it will tomorrow mid day for me to d/l.

To Rose, I have been to Florida and since I hail from Picman's hometown, there was just way to much sunshine for me. It has been cool and misty rain here so it has made me homesick.

Thanks for answering my post, being as small and quiet as I am I kind of get lost in this big pond.

1goodmom, the great thing about the pond is that, big as it is, there are lots of quiet little coves for the smaller fish. This particular forum just isn't one of them

HELP! It won't let me purchase - even for the full price. Says it is not available and that there is no Trial version.
I just receved card in mail today letting me know about it.
