Elsarian Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Anyone notice that Steam has changed the countdown? It's now showing 1 week 1 day 2 hours, which puts the unlock between 1 and 2 am Eastern time. The count here shows it 1 week 1 day 5 hours 57 minutes. Guess steam listened to the outcry of angry players. Now it'll unlock right after I get back from the store and get it installed Well if it will be unlocking at 1 or 2 EST, then that means that it will unlock here at 12 or 1 since I am Central Time. If that is true, then that means that I will be playing as soon as I get back home. Awesome! steam clocks are wrong Pete say they're working on releasing the game at 12am EST in north america. they gave up on the 11/11/11 release on every timezone like i knew they would. No I don't think that they have given up at all. The game will be released on 11-11-11 everywhere just like they said. However, that does not mean that it will be releasing at 12 o' clock sharp all over the world. That would just be too complicated. Some will be able to play it at 12. Some will be able to play it at other times. But still on 11-11-11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsarian Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Well I am speaking in terms of getting the game form Gamestop. i will not be able to get the game until Midnight which will be 11-11-11. And seeing that the game will be unlocked at 11 PM, then that means that I can play as soon as I get back. So the release is dead-on for me.

Tilarium Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 I just remembered, daylight savings starts on the 6th.... one of the side effects of being in Hawaii for 5 years, they don't have daylight savings like they do in every other state..... that's going to effect my time too.

Uzibeatle Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 All this time stuff is giving me a headache. Now we have to worry about shifting out of DST too? What we need is some sort of Time Lord to bypass all this crap. I'll just get pie faced drunk, pass out sometime before midnight wherever, and wake up late the next morning. Problem solved.

Tweetybird Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Seems only Hawaii and whoever else in that timezone must have to worry about DST. It changes on Sunday AM (at 2 AM) for the rest of us. Extra playing hour!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejpadig Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 According to Steam's countdown, I'll get it at around 2am in Sweden the 11th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdale13 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Honestly? Who cares. Youll maybe get in 2-3 hours before you wanna sleep, then when you wake up, it will be activated regardless of where you are. We've waited this long :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've waited this long :thumbsup:Pssht, surely you've heard of the mighty ability known as napping? :P Shop for goodies, eat dinner, sleep until midnight at least (since it's released at 2 am here), play all night :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
