Barrongm Posted November 30, 2001 Report Posted November 30, 2001 Yes I recieved my game today , but suprise.. no star map...something I was realy looking forward too...then I remember reading a post about someone geting a store copy and I got to wondering..did the SC send star maps with those copys..maybe the place I orderd from is shiping store copys...not sure just curious...important thing is I got the game...but I remember the SC posted something about the store copys not being patchable or able to play online...so I hope the copy I got is normal retail with star map missing...that I can live with.
Guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Posted November 30, 2001 You see that little paper with the key commands? OPEN IT.

Mitchell Posted November 30, 2001 Report Posted November 30, 2001 So, I guess you didn't get the key commands card, either The Star map is nice, but there is actually a better one, IMHO, in the Appendix included as an HTML document after you install BCM. It shows (at least some) of the places the flux fields will take you to in addition to the jumpgates and wormholes. If you have or have access to a color printer you can print this one out - I like it for all but the simplest route planning (which you can do directly in the Navitron computer).[ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Mitchell ]
Guttersnipe Posted November 30, 2001 Report Posted November 30, 2001 Unfortunately, I didn't recieve the poster-sized starmap either. I had ordered well before the cut off date for the starmap offer, but the EB where I got it didn't recieve it from their warehouse. At least that's what the cashier monkey told me.I figured I'll check back in a little bit to see if maybe they came in the next shipment.

Sgt Khan Posted December 1, 2001 Report Posted December 1, 2001 Best way to get a poster sized star map:1: Get small map on card2: Take to Kinkos copy store or a printing shop3: Pay them a little green4: Go to wal-m,art and buy thumb tacs5: Hang on wall
Gallion Posted December 1, 2001 Report Posted December 1, 2001 hmmmm ... that's odd ... I got mine hanging on the wall here TTFN
Guest Posted December 1, 2001 Report Posted December 1, 2001 Derek, I do expect to have a build-it-yourself 1/40th scale model of a BC on the GCO box
