Hi! I'm new here, and this is my question:
I live in portugal, but i don't have a web connection at home (temporarily disconnected, because my "idiot" isp made my max mb per month at the minimum possible) and i want to know if i will receive the betas i'm pending (all) by cd ?

Some games ship on a CD, but others may not. It really depends on the size of the game. For example, if it's an addon like Unreal 2's XMP, it'll probably be a download, but if it's a full game like Horizons, it could be a download/CD. But, you often have to confirm you're in the beta, which could be hard to do without an internet connection.

Feel free to correct me if I am mistaken.
