Hello there,
Does anyone know if GOG will unlock the download at midnight?

Thanks.

No, if you go to your account page and try to download it, it will give you a countdown timer to when it's available. It's 30 hours and 46 minutes from now, so basically at 23:00 CET tomorrow.

I see no countdown at all.

Edit: Solved, found it.

In your games library, where you usually download the game.

Well, the release is at 2018-02-28 and they're being extra nice by allowing me to download it 1 hour prior release - I'm at UTC+1, otherwise it would even be 2 hours earlier than promised! :D



Oh noes. No... no, wait... this is all wrong. The above would've been my reaction if they had not thrown 2018-02-27 in the room and then added 23 darn hours to that release date! -.-

Okay, not the worst of issues, sure. It's the fact that there sometime is just this very thin line between a pleasant surprise and an unpleasant revelation and it vexes me that marketing just goes straight for the latter, while the former could've been so easily achieved. Meh.

By the way: it's 2018-02-27 at 00:07 for me. Reads "ONLY 22 : 51 : 30 LEFT" .... yaarrrrp, there's that.



Ps: the support request that I've sent in last saturday (to get confirmation on the weird number of days) has been graciously ignored. Again... not a big deal... but vexing, still. It's just like they really want to bully ;D

Thanks for the heads up on that. Though I am bummed that I have to wait till 2 PM (PST) tomorrow to download the game.
Looks like they changed counter to 16.00 UTC (17.00 CET, 8 AM PST).

Good news, indeed.
Tbh I'm pretty disappointed by the disingenous advertising, espacially since I wanted to support gog, otherwise I'd be playing on steam right now ...
Eh, I wasn't too surprised when the release was an hour to midnight - that is afternoon on the US east coast. Pretty standard when it comes to international releases unfortunately.
