Which is pretty much what I'm aiming for, especially if they don't activate pre-loading as my internet is not very quick... J'aime le fromage.

Valve gives the option. If they just choose a date it is released at 12AM EST on the chosen date. So if Larian decided to release it on 9/14 with no given time, it will be released at 9/14 12AM EST. Which is good news for me because then I would get it 9/13 9PM PST The only time this is not true is if there is clause in a distribution contract that says Valve can't release the game until retail stores are open. [edit] If they release it 9/14 Midnight CEST that would be 9/13 6PM EST or 9/13 3PM PST Last edited by Concarne; 12/09/17 04:46 PM.

I must admit I can never remember exactly what EST and PST are: I think west and east coast of the mainland US, though I have no idea whether or not they take summer time into account. I can just about manage GMT! J'aime le fromage.

And since we're in CEST, it's often like 8 p.m. here when games are available on steam so with no preload it can only be played one day later, friday night... Would love to know if there will be preload and the exact release time.... Pleaaaaase Lariaaaaaaan

I yesterday followed a link in one of the million threads about release time and it showed the Facebook page (although I don't have a Facebook account) and there you could read PDT. It's allegedly under "Events". Edit: found it Facebook It's in German but you can see the time. Last edited by geala; 13/09/17 07:55 AM.
