Tried to do a search for DVD, but as on most forums, 3 letter searches are disabled. 2 quick questions:

1) Will T:V be released on DVD?

2) What's the best pre-order deal you've found (price + extras)?

I remember hearing that it won't be released on DVD. That might have changed though.

they always say dvd versions are too costly to press, even doom3 didn't have a dvd release. i think ut2k4 had a limited dvd release. ...maybe they just want to maximize profits going with good ol' cds.
i think it may be unlikely tribes:v will have one either.

If you mean T:V, its a bug, because you have a crappy OS

i wouldn't have use customization as a highlight. perhaps quite a bit didn't make it to the public beta.
i mean.. no gui editor, missing options for mouse movement, missing gui for graphics options (vsync, tripple buffering etc..). maybe they did mean ini editing..

Yah it did lol, it was out on DVD before cd's, infact they debated not even having a cd release.

maybe pressing 5 cds is about the price of pressing 1dvd (in bulk that is)?

Just curious, why would a dvd be released in Europe, not in the US?
I remember a poll way back when, I dont know if that had anything to do with it.
