wow im shocked they don't give you the day to pre-install the game ready for when it comes out and tbh i already see it being a one time play game if they don't bring back l4d1 versus mode story..

[Rim Carrey]

Yeah, it's honestly odd they wouldn't let us preload the game while everyone else gets to play already lol.

agreed.. and the story seems to be a 1 time play unless your into repeating everything alot of times.. its the l4d1 versus mode i want to see them add back into the game and make it a real game again

yeah i do not understand this either preordered the standard and yet no preload ,feel i am getting punished because i didnt buy the delux or ultimate edition. but i guess would be too late now to have it only around 4hrs to go b4 it is live and then another 3 - 4 hrs to install for me as i have crap internet. :(

You pretty much are. I feel for you man. Someone gifted me the standard edition so I can't ♥♥♥♥♥ too much, but it's still annoying nonetheless.

[RudeFoxs]

if ur is the EU there is around another 4 hrs b4 it goes live ,you can check by going to the steam store page.

[hup]

I am downloading

i really dont like this format of punishing people for not paying 80 or 90 dollars to pre load and play early, locking the game behind a really trash business model, than when we all try and download it....servers will be shot. basically pay 90 dollars and get acces to the game, standard editions get ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Doesn't matter what region you live in, its a global release, every region has to wait the 4 hours if you're using steam or the EGS

It isn't available to preload to not put stress on the servers. Having everyone download it at exactly the same time then instantly try to hop ingame, can slow things down and even break stability. So calm down.

The game releases at NOON EST.

well thats the same thing when it release at noon for alot of the euro will be taking off work early and be home from school to click that download button the moment it goes green so they wont be saving there servers by doing that lol for the fact is hundreds and way more will be downloaded around the same time so bye bye servers still lol..

It's a bummer in terms of convenience I wonder why though. Feel like there should've been preloading for deluxe and ultimate as well ya know? Lotta games do it and this is Turtle Rock after all, they aren't new to this. Ah well just a bit more waiting tacked on, it basically doesn't matter anymore.

Well spoiler, they aren't adding a versus campaign, they have already stated that isn't on the cards :)
