That is just not cool. Those of us that work during the day have to wait until we get home, which mean, night workers and those that are employment challenged will have a small edge. Sad

I would say you suck, but since this is a polite and friendly environment I will not say that but I will say you are a vacuum. Razz

And what about us in Europe? We don't get it till 28th.
Then again perhaps you need 4 days to gain an edge!

Hey SheepDawg, that must be 300 pst, for your area. Game will be released 12am est, Oct 25.

Anyhow, I'll be in line at GameStop at Midnight (first time I've gone this route for a game), installing b/t 12-1230, and level 15 by time SilentWolf gets home from work Exclamation

Well Zac, I will let you have that extra time. I know you will need the help. And if that doesnt work, I will have to repair your tank.

I think you have your timezones reversed there CapZac. I get that it will be available at 3:00am est. I do not know if the stores here are having a midnight sale of the game but there is an online release check that will not unlock the game until 12:01 am pst. As far as I know even the hard copy people will have to wait for this (for PC at least).

i mean...TECHNICALLY, you CAN launch the game now. The VPN trick is true and does work, however no one is quite sure of the repricussions yet. EA has said its not a bannable offense to do it, its just not nice. However people are woried that being registered with a Krean IP(vpn) that features may be disabled or non existant. Im not chancing it, but if anyone is brave enough...

Also sitting in Battlelog, it keeps trying to run the games Campaign for me. It keeps popping up. Teases Twisted Evil
