Just Random

Distant Worlds is a vast, pausable real-time, 4X space strategy game which models a "living galaxy" with incredible options for replayability and customizability. Experience the full depth and detail of large turn-based strategy games, but with the simplicity and ease of real-time, and on the scale of a massively-multiplayer online game. Now greatly enhanced with the new Universe release, which includes all four previous releases as well as the new Universe expansion!

I just found out that I can play DW 12 hours before it actually comes out.
How? Well, I live in Germany. New Zealand is 12 hours ahead of us, so when it comes out 8am over there, it comes out 8pm the previous day over here =)
Sorry, just trying to keep up the positive thinking while I sit and wait uneasily :)

As far as I know Matrix are the only publisher for DW, so I don't think there'll be any issues with a staggered international release. [;)]

Should go live at the same moment for everyone. Maybe someone from Matrix can comment on this? [:)]

I was expecting some mad plot to travel backwards across the date-lines to arrive at the releaseday yesterday :(

With the way Elliot is constantly awake... you never know WHAT time he's going to do something. I don't know if it is all NZ'ers or just Elliot, but that guy must never sleep! Or maybe this is just all GAME DEVELOPERS...
