Real PM Live date changed to 31st

This just in...

Leo says he wants to move the PM going live to tuesday to give us time to discuss the suggestions you've all made. Most of the team are in Ireland at the moment, filming with Beasts of War, so we've not had the time to sit down and check through everything yet.

Same end date of the 3rd of March.

For those of us that have been living in a cave and completely missed this KS, will the "Late" PM also go live tomorrow?
Here's hoping.
Cheers, Dean

hello here,

Today is the day !!

Do you have a special timing to put the PM on ?

Received the KS update about the PM going live earlier today, but no email to log into the PM yet.

neither me !

PM is live now. Just finished my pledge and adding stuff. Also charged my card. So I can confirm both thing work properly. At least for me

@QW  and Mythic Games
I got my PM email and I'm very unpleasantly surprised by the shipping cost to Russia.
Core Pledge only - $123 (!!!)
Core Pledge with Typhon bundle - $387 (!!!)

Is it a correct calculation?? I have never seen such figures before.

From the KS page: "EUROPE: $20-30 to France. $25-$35 to most other countries."
Alright, let it be $35 for Russia, but is the core pledge really 3,5 times heavier than you estimated before the KS???

Only Core Pledge:



Core Pledge with Typhon bundle:

@Artur - no, the core box isn't 3 times the weight. I think that must be wrong. I'll see what I can find out.

@QW I know the KS comments are full of comments about shipping costs. The one Facebook Group is also full of the same.

I don't know if the PM glitched but I know it might have something to do with size and weight of the game with bundles.

Hi Mythic Battles team,

I have a problem to activate my fluent account. I received the activation mail however all links send me to a 404 error page.

Can you help me ?

l'opération s'est bien passé !

par contre je trouvais aussi les frais de ports élevés pour le pledge titan
pour la france 70 euros

Bon quand je vois le post au dessus on dirait que j'ai pas à me plaindre
mais je comptais ajouter 2 ou 3 trucs, bhe ça m'a calmé et j'ai rien ajouté de plus

sinon le pldge manager est très clair

@QW Clarification on the update on KS

So if I am not changing what I want, which is the God Pledge with Titan Bundle, Storage Box and the Alt Mini Sculpts, and the shipping is lowered would that be refunded to my card or would I have to spend it? Or alternatively is it being refunded and I'll have to do everything over again?

@QW, Thank you for the response!
I already invested $500 and not going to ask for refund or something, but I just hope that I will be able to afford shipping. $387 for Typhon pledge is obviously something I didn't expect.
Otherwise I will have to drop from Typhon to God + a few add-ons to compensate the shipping cost, which would be very sad.

On est d'accord, cette histoire de coût de livraison est une très mauvaise nouvelle !!

Cependant il se peut que ce soit une erreur, et si c'est le cas, la team va régler çà rapidement parce que, aux dernière nouvelles, nous sommes dans:

A GOOD PLACE !!!

Pls. is it possible to write in english, only? So everyone can understand the comments from each other.

This assumes that EVERY person that speaks French knows English.
May I suggest that if you wish to know what everyone is saying when talking on the forum of a French company... then perhaps you should learn French?

(I don't speak French by the way)

From my perspective this is something like a netiquette in an "international" forum... where people all over the world are participating.

French company? yes
Only Buyers from France? no

Should I write in German now? And the backer from Poland in Polish? And so on?...

I would like to exchange meanings, FAQs, game experiences, ideas. This will not work if people insist on a mother language which is not common... English is our world language. And I asked for it in a friendly way... it was not a demand. So I perceive your answer as slightly arrogant.

No problem, i can do it in english ( even if my english is poor) :p

i was saying :

" yes, obviously , all this story around shipping cost is a bad news !! But maybe it's just a mistake, and, in this case, the team will fix it very soon because, as we all know, we are in :
A GOOD PLACE !!!"

i was writing in french to answer to french people about shipping cost from france to france.

Thanks @Minifred

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this but there's nowhere else obvious on the forum.

I'm a late backer who completed my pledge on Fluent last week for a God Pledge. And then today I received a message through Kickstarter (despite never pledging through KS) simply saying "The pledge manager will open this week, and you will be able to late pledge with all the Kickstarter exclusives! Thank you for your support !"

After doing a lot of digging through updates/comments on KS I see the pledge manager has closed and will reopen some time this week, with money already paid through it being credited to backers to re-pledge. Not ideal but I don't have an issue with that per se. The problem is the communication with late backers has been rubbish, and I only know what's going on from trawling through KS comments (where late backers can't comment).

As I see it, two things need to happen, firstly the situation needs to be clarified to late backers, and not the ambiguous message that's been sent. Secondly, I assume when the PM reopens late backers need to be told when it's time to go back into it to redo their pledge.

Same late pledger here. Don't see a problem, since (1) KS updates, (2) comments in this forum, and for some masochistically-inclined, (3) KS comments explain the issue quite profusely (in a good sense). Once you read through the first two, I can't imagine you have many questions left unanswered, unless you simply do not like answer you hear.

On another hand, late backers needs to accept the reality that since we are late to the game, we ought to fetch for ourselves, and we won't be spoon-fed. Sorry if I come around as too cross - that's only partially intended.

I can calculate and add to cart but theres no way to open the cart, button is disabled possibly

I've asked the guys to check that anyone who went through the PM as a late pledge while it was up will get an email invite when it goes back up.

It's a good point. Don't want you guys to fall between two stools

@QW I was wondering will the Rise of the Titans big box contain a new map as well? Bc as Iwas scrolling through the test pm I decided to look into each big box expansion with a little more detail and found out that all big expansions come with an additional map apart from Rise of the Titans.

@QW, Can you please check and let us know how can shipping cost more than a pledge itself?

$103 shipping to Russia for the $99 God pledge.
Once again, from the KS page:
" ASIA: $27 to China and Hong Kong. $40 to most other countries.
 EUROPE: $20-30 to France. $25-$35 to most other countries. "
Treat Russia as Europe or Asia but it is still too much. Alright you estimated it as 5,5 kilos, and it weights 7 kilos, that should be at maximum $51 (=$40 * (7 / 5,5)).
And in the PM it is twice as that. Really want to know the reason here.

If I knew from the beggining that shipping would cost me more than the game itself I would think twice before backing it...
This is just not right...

Posted the same on KS comments.
