What day do people from the future get this?

Post by towerbooks3192 »

I want to confirm what day does Australia get this since as of the moment it is 8pm (Western Australian Time) on the 22nd of May from where I am. So are we getting this Saturday or Tomorrow night?

Edit: I mean Universe. It says 1 day and 13 hours it would be available on steam but not sure how matrix works

That timer is just counting down until midnight, so I wouldn't get your hopes up. Likely to be morning to mid day USA time, going by past Matrix releases.

Come on! I wish they would do that. I wish they would release the game on time here as in on time our time. ANZ always gets screwed when it comes to other releases so I just wished they would give us some love.

Oh how I wanted to do that but my boss is going to kill me. I think she will be alright if I am working a short shift but I am working a a long shift so she is going to kill me as she needs to find 2 people to do my job for tomorrow.

Anyway I don't care if I have to sleep late but I would really be happy if they would release it on midnight and not on the next day or something

Hi everyone,

We hope to release early in the day (US Eastern time) through our own store, but the Steam release is scheduled for the afternoon based on the last communication we had with Steam.

Regards,

- Erik

Please do, Erik! And if you happen to mistake a little after midnight Australian/NZ time for East Coast time. Well, so be it. We'd still support you.

Excellent, can't wait. Though, I am travelling for a couple of weeks before I will be able to play it in anger. Looking forward to it.
