I'm confused about the Episode 5 Release Date...
So EVERYWHERE it's being said it comes out tomorrow on the 20th. However, I just saw this;

PC

Australia (AEDT): 11:01 AEDT (20 Oct)

UTC: 00:01 (20 Oct)

UK (BST): 01:01 (20 Oct)

West Coast America (PDT): 16:01 (19 Oct)

Does that mean that the we, on the PC in America, are getting it TODAY at 4:01 PM PDT?

Well the reason I'm asking is because that was an official post from a developer, and it says "West Coast America (PDT): 16:01 (19 Oct)" which HEAVILY implies that TODAY is the day for us PC gamers. I'm SO curious and I wish someone would clarify!

Sick! I know it's not actually any earlier than anyone, but not having to wait as long as I thought for it is awesome

And I bet the PSN store won't even have it up on the store front until tomorrow evening.

If you live in Pacific time you should be able to start downloading at 6:01PM Pacific time to figure it you you add 6 hours to NOON time not 4 hours like you did...

LIS episodes have for the most part had a consistent Midnight-1am UTC release for each episode. So when they have said "<day> of <month>" that has meant a midnight release of the episode just minutes into the stated day. Give or take a hour for Steam to start distributing the episode of course.

So yeah, I would most definitely expect that pattern to remain the case for Episode 5.

It's simple really, if you don't have to go anywhere important today/tomorrow, wait around and you should be able to download the game in 3 hours (at the time I am writing this). Maybe sooner if we get lucky. : 3
