    Re: PreLoaded And Installed

    Meh I call it quits, I'm realizing game won't ulock before 24 hours, so I won't be able to play before 5 pm tomorrow anyways. Still going to report here when IF I get a preload up.

      People volunteer to test it. Granted Steam could use a better warning about possible consequences of using beta software and what it might do to your dog.

        That's the point of what I'm saying. Sure, it's subjective, but I'm sure the general consensus would be that it's not okay to have someone test something that was seemingly safe but could actually kill them(As an example), even if they did have to consent to it, but not knowing the severity of what could happen.

          Just shipped from Amazon!

          :yay:

          I still haven't decided if I want to stay old sckool with requiring the DVD in the drive to play, it's not clear if you get unlimited activations that way or if you still have to uninstall the game to "de-activate" an install.

            I think its all these things affecting Steam people:

            1. Hard copies being sold breaking street date.
            2. Most other digital download vendors have already done the pre-download.
            3. Steam is not updating much about it and staying quiet in the forums.

            It makes people antsy that all these others are doing it and some are even playing and they cant.

              Looks like the two dropped the ball. They waited to look at this a few hours before the scheduled release?

                I don't think they expected to run into trouble with Steam; it's still Steam's distribution model.

                thanks for the heads up now go download that patch! Somebody get a working stream up!

                    I'm from the EU (England) so steam doesn't release it until the 5th

                          Suppodsely they do, but I don't think they would refund an order on launch day so we are screwed completely

                                If all you have to do with your time is troll, why bother? I hear razor blades are tasty and nutritious. You should chew some.
