Game release time on Nov 17, 2016

Post by Numdydar »

I'm sure that a specific time on 11/17 is being discussed as to when the game will be available for purchase and downloading.

But since the game is about the War in Europe, I think it would be fitting to have the game launched at the same time CEST that Hitler ordered the attack on Poland [:)]

From history:
On 31 August 1939, Hitler ordered hostilities against Poland to start at 4:45am the next morning (September 1,1939)

While the first attack occurred at 4:40am (their watches must have been off [:)]), I'd use the 4:45 time since that is what the man wanted.

So what does Matrix and Hubert think about this? [:)]

Actually, would be better if the game will be available at 0:45am so that we can launch the first attack at 4:45am [:D]

Not many pop lyrics like Al Stewart's, for sure! "Roads to Moscow" from "Past, Present, Future" (1973)

Too true lol.

Maybe they should do like the Civ 6 release and have a web site to show when you can play it for each time zone [X(]

Just received an email as beta tester which said:
"Thank you for helping beta test Strategic Command WWII - War in Europe.
With this new title releasing tomorrow"

Email was from the UK so time there was around 11.00am GMT Thursday. Looks like a Friday release from UK, maybe that sneaks into Thursday night USA for you?
