anyone know when the game is ready ? says aug 6 but that was like 10 hours ago :p

Read here

"Unlock on Steam, and GOG/Vault installers are expected tomorrow at 9AM CET (i.e. Brussels time)."

Dont know but steam users obviously are already starting the game since 10 minutes ago. at least according to the official forums.

Now available on steam, it appears. Refresh. Refresh. Refresh.

update... somethings going on ^^
installer download option is on so far...

edit: doesnt work atm tho "403 Forbidden"

Download shows up as 1 mb, somehow I believe that's probably a placeholder, probably need to wait until the proper download shows up.

Yeah, downloader says unable to retrieve, try again later.

I really have nothing better to do than impatiently wait here and update. It's now 10.7 GB but still won't retrieve. Not whining, really, just bored.

Since there will probably be a manual, soundtrack (with the Imperial Edition, at least), etc, along with the installer, I'd wait until you see those start to go up too.

Look on the evil side! all this waiting will give you time to plot and plan your conquest of this world.

already planed. but just so much time till the baby wakes up and conquers my world again.

And here I was thinking that if it's a digital distribution it would be automatically available when the day starts right after midnight. Helvete!
Oh, and did you guys get the codes for the bonus games? I haven't and I preordered it more than a day ago.

It says I can download it, but it is never added to the "Gog.com downloader" application. it has asked me to log in a few times, and is saying online and connecting but now file download ever starts.

Anyone else with this problem, or, even better a solution?

@SangHee
Didnt get the codes at first either. Got 1 empty email and after waiting a 2 days if something else was coming i contacted the support. They helped very fast and easy.
