AA3 Preload

Post by ADF-TISM »

AA3 will be a Steampowered game,, something to do with updates, anyway you will need it to DL anyway so get in early and while your there why not pre-load the game. Not 100% what it does but it may get you up and going a lil quicker.

There's one problem with the Steam pre-load... The countdown for when it unlocks... Is a countdown in AUS time, for the US release date.

In other words, the timer will expire before the game is out, yet the game won't unlock until the actual /REAL/ timer has finished for the US TimeZone.

So don't get all pissy when the timer hits 0 and you still can't play ;)

That timer will be accurate - timer will run out at 12:00 NOON 17 Jun in Western USA (LA)
Which is approx 5:00AM 18 JUN here (east coast).
So that means I should be able to get some training in before work on Thursday morning [smilie=evillol.sml[1].gif]

I think our biggest problem on the day will be finding servers to play on :)

But while we wait, there is always basic training [smilie=laugh[2].gif]

0400 AEST for me, bear in mind, Steam updates in hourly intervals. Even when it gets to one hour or less, it still says "Approximately 1 hour"

You can get the Game at 12:00 pm PST.
As soon as it is made available, I will put it in our downloads.

Looks like the pre-load is only 50% anyway.

I am now at 60%, so sometime this afternoon I should have it done (my internet is only 512K connection)

For those of you that can't get into your 'reserved' account names.

Are you using your AA2 password, or the password they e-mailed to you when you reserved your name?

I had the same problem, I was like... WTF... my account name is wrong? Then I checked the AA forums and people were like "Where's my e-mail with my password when I reserved my name!?!?"

Quick check of my mailbox, found it, plugged in the p/w and it worked.

Now if only the Auth servers didn't keep crashing every 5 seconds so I could actually do some training...
