Amazing how the concept of time zones eludes people.

Guess what folks, even though it may be 3 AM on the east coast, you're still playing it at the exact same time people on the west coast get to. Incredible!


west coast sucks! nuff said 


Guess what Sherlock, 12:00 AM is different depending on where you freaking live. If it says it releases/unlocks at midnight, that should be midnight according to YOUR timezone, unless it SPECIFICALLY stated it was only based on PST timezones. So did it say that or are you just a first class troll?


well my dear watson  nothing was stated about  a 3 hour time wait on my  pc  copy i picked it up at gamestop  i don't DDl my games i should be able to play my game just like the PS3 and XBOX people

I apologize. I can't help myself. I'm a habitual cheerio-pisser.

I still don't understand the point of this, or the argument of "It wouldn't be fair to west coast people" when this game can and is already being played on the console versions.

That alone defeats the purpose of this stupid release date check.

You're assuming people stay up all night to play it. Now instead tons have to wait until tommorow or later.


Oh the humanity! You won't be able to play the same demo level tonight!

It could be worse, you know. Have you ever thought about how messed up elections in the US are for people on the West coast? By the time our polls are in prime time, the most populous half of the country are already announcing preliminary results, which can have an effect on voter turn out in the remaining open polling locations. 

But oh, hey, let's get all bent out of shape over a damn video game. Incredible. 


The problem I have with this is retardedness of it.  Hmm lets stop people from playing before the release date, but only on PC and Mac.  Oh and lets set the check time to the latest possible in the continental US rather than the earliest, even though people are already playing on consoles.  There's no point to it, that's why people are angry.  Anyone who got their hands on it before midnight had the connections to just bypass this with a console copy anyways.  Instead it simply winds up being a punishment for the midnight pc crowd, rather than actually preventing someone from playing before release.

All this East Coast/ West Coast vitriol reminds me of the rap scene in the nineties.

While it is dumb console can play, and PC is locked; this thread basically boils down to...

The inability to see the sticky about unlock times and to plan accordingly. It's not all BioWare/EA's fault.

"Unlocking is based on the official game release date for the region you live in. The PC versions, both digital and retail, will unlock beginning at the following times:

   * Canada & United States – 0000h on March 8th"

FOR THE REGION YOU LIVE IN!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah, its BS. PC gamers have to wait till 3am, when they were told otherwise.

NOT EVERYONE COMES TO THESE FORUMS! 

Is that so hard to understand?  Many took a break just to avoid spoilers, some don't go into the main forums anymore and stick to groups, and a lot of gamers don't belong to this site period.  So using this "they had a sticky" is just a stupid argument.

What's stupid is not checking stickies / announcements and doing your research, and then complaining.

If you were worried about spoilers, don't click those threads. Seriously? You are blaming the company for doing nothing wrong. They didn't even have to make the game, or release it on the 8th, then you'd really be complaining.

People amaze me.

Patience is a virtue.

Everyone grab a cookie and munch on it to cool down. *places a tray of freshly baked cookies*

O lord... you just don't get it.  I don't come to this side of the forums period anymore.  If I am here, I am in a group.  But I also have a life, which LIMTIS MY TIME HERE PERIOD.  I also know plenty of DA fans that are not a part of this site at all.   Your reasoning becomes all the more pathetic with that simple fact alone.  

Next time think... it might help you actually bring a valid point up.

This is highly stupid, thank god I didn't bother with a midnight release. Why punish East Coast users just because they are ahead?

So you don't have time, other than tonight where you magically have time to come on the forums and complain.
Your lack of time is not EAs fault. As far as you not coming here, that's 100% your fault and is a personal decision.

Next time don't tell me to think, because I am thinking just fine. Personally flaming me saying I have no valid points is not only against the rules, but somewhat rude of you to say. I didn't mean anything personally, so calm down 'Tiger'.

You had the resources available, and your inability to use them was your own choice so it constitutes no fault of EA.

Its not that I have to wait 2 hours... I went to a midnight launch. They had to have known this would royally ****** off a bunch of people. I mean really, I'm sitting here at 1am.. installing and such and I'm locked out. The store didn't say anything. Who the hell reads forums.

Also, chill out with the "do your research on the forums" crap. You call a game retailer, they say the game goes on sale at midnight, you purchase game and install and are locked out.. The breakdown in communication is not the consumers fault. Bioware posting a sticky in some weird online forum is not adequate for regular people. I shouldn't have to do "research" when the games release date is "March 8, 2011. Most people tend to take things literally. Enjoy your goofy ass forum.
