Hopefully Vhal will bug them as they usually respond to her

Maybe she asks on facebook though

They never respond to me when I contact them through their website

It is pretty damn awesome, but it's so much money--and even more with shipping. I'll be glad when I have it, but I won't feel fully good about it because of the exorbitant cost.

Not to be THAT guy, but aren't you saying its NOT better? (really big number minus even bigger number = negative)? ;) Just Sayin...

I just couldn't bring myself to purchase the US version this time knowing that there was a MUCH better version overseas which included extra lithos and DLC (among others). For me, the price difference was worth knowing I got THE definitive AC4 edition.

They did the BF4 steelbook, so they're not completely out of it, but they missed most of the big fall releases.

Twisted

11-10-2013, 06:34 AM

they probably had a lot of stock left over, or maybe it really didn't put a dent in their pre orders..and figured the uptick in sales was not worth the cost of steelbooks...next gen will sell themselves.

LeX

11-10-2013, 07:52 AM

Quick question.

I just want to confirm, how many steels now we have for AC4BF?

1) from Czech/amazon.de steel book (G1)
2) US Limited Steel Book PS3 (G2)?
3) US Limited Steel Book Xbox (G1)?
4) Black Chest (is it available in G1 and G2 size??)

Sorry, I didn't have chance to review your previous post and conversation. (we have sh*tty conenction here at work) and I only have limited time on the internet.

Please give me complete list of AC4 Steel Books available now.

Platfus

11-10-2013, 09:00 AM

Black chest only G1 I think and NA LE G1 should be the same as Black Chest but we should ask someone like Mags :D She's here for shinny things

11-10-2013, 09:10 AM

Thanks, I think I noticed a conversation here that G2 is available now, if I'm not mistaken from LE PS3?

Yes, G2 is in NA LE, but in Black Chest its supposed to be G1 I think.

Can anyone confirm this for me. I've been looking around for G2 Steelbook's for the Xbox One. I've seen the LE G2 with two disc holders and three disc holders. So if anyone has purchased the LE for Xbox One, can you post how many discs it holds and what inserts were included with the Soundtrack.

And if anyone knows of other G2 Steelbooks, please let me know. Thank you.

Only G2 steelbooks were released in the NA limited edition for the PS3, PS4 and Xbox1 and they all have 2 disk holders. 1 for the game the other for the sound track.

Dan

04-13-2014, 05:19 AM

Aren't there just 3 different steels (2 of which in G2/G1, one in G1).

The G1 PC one from amazon.de
The G2/G1 (console dependent) for the NA CE
The G2/G1 (console dependent) for the EU Black Chest

That was my understanding of it.

Nope, black chest edition only came in G1 regardless if it was for playstation or Xbox.
