ok great

Thanks for the site, but i am still unable to locate a playable and downloadable demo of priv2. I was hoping for it to be there...do you know of any other places?
 
It was taken down due to space constraints. I'm sure LOAF will put it back up if so asked, however.
 
...

since i am really out of the loop around here, and am not really fluent in the abreaviations used here...what/who is LOAF?

and KrisV: just how big is this demo? if you have kazaa, can you put it in your shared folder such that I may DL it?
 
LOAF is a person's name :)

It's only about 60 megs (IIRC), which isn't that bad. (Until you have 500 people download it...)

I don't have a copy of it anymore, or I'd put it up on blacklance.org, I'm sure LOAF or Kris will.
 
The Privateer 2 demo was never really popular... Origin never had it online, and we only had it online for a bit. It's not a great demo.
 
all that happens in the priv 2 demo is you fly around for about 5 mins, waste whatever you can then it quits. Nothing compared to the full game which is still quite bad compared to the original privateer.
 
well, since I hear that priv 2 may be not as good as priv 1...i still wanna get priv 2, for sure if I can ever find it.

Does anyone know how in the world I can play priv 1 thru win2k pro w/sp2?

Wasn't the demo online on Origin's Privateer 2 Deluxe page? Perhaps the page is still online even if it's not reachable through Origin's "new" mainpage... Damn, I don't have the URL here at work, but perhaps in my "favorites" at home...

Or perhaps someone else still knows it?

edit: BTW, Privateer 2 is still sold by Software Savings UK!!!

you find it here:

But you might get an english version with svenska manuals :( ... so did I :mad:
 
Couldn't find it - only AVI trailers.

Can't be as bad as Quarto's example of getting a German game from a box with English and Polish writing...

Wow, that must have been very frustating... and of course much worse than what happened to me... since I have the DOS version, too, the manuals were no problem...

but surely Software Savings should have mentioned it that the manuals are not english, because who would expect "non-english" manuals when buying a game in the UK? :rolleyes:
