CoH Architect Edition

Ok, I've been around to my local stores and STILL can't find a physical copy of Architect edition. It's well worth the money (Considering the month of free time + the booster pack is already $25 vs. the $20 for AE Edition) But I also want the actual DISC with all updates up to Issue 14 on it, in case I ever need to reinstall.

If I bought the AE Edition online, do I get a link to download the AE Edition ISO? Is there any other way to acquire the disc than actually finding a physical copy of it being sold?

Buy the AE edition at the PlayNC store... you'll get the product codes added to your account.
(no you wont get a link to download an ISO, you'll get the same client link you've always had)
Then apply that code to your game account.


You might be able to find it at a 3rd party online store like an Amazon.com (for example) and have the original disc sent to your house, but better yet...

Got a DVD burner? Copy your CoH directory to a disc.. now you have i14 on disc.
(You'll also have all your AE missions, custom critter, costume, keybind and option files)

Do the same thing after following updates/issues if you ever want a more current version.

1. No. You just get a code to apply to your account.
2. Do you have a DVD burner?

You could order a copy from someplace like Frys.com, but then you would be paying for shipping. Unless you really need the disk, it's cheaper (because of the shipping) to buy it from the NCSoft store.

Don't know if there is an EB (Electronic Boutique) near you, but I got mine there. They may order one in for you.

Check Amazon as well.

I'd also suggest a USB Flash Drive.

Stores sell them for dirt cheap nowadays and a 4GB one will fit the bill nicely.

I saw the Architect Edition at Target the other day.

EDIT: Crap, it may have been GameStop, but I was visiting family in Pittsburgh, PA. I know I saw it somewhere because I picked it up to look at what was on the box and opened up the dust cover over the DVD case.
