They probably didn't have a finished game to actually put on the discs when they had to print them :/

 

[Royal Rainbow]

I can deal with the game not downloading tomorrow but it sure as fuck better be available at midnight. 10am PST? Come on.

It sounds like it's 9pm on the 31st for PST

 

[20cent]

Today is the 31st, it's 8:54 am in HK, the steam countdown says - 1 day and 17 hours..... What?

 

[fluffydelusions]

I thought you had to initiate it, could have sworn that was the case in the past?

You do afaik unless there is some trick I'm missing?

 

[BRocknRolla]

Well yes. Leave your PC on and Steam running and it will be downloaded as you sleep. You'll have to install it when you're up but it only takes a minute.

You sure? I was pretty sure you had to tell it to start the download after it goes live.

 

[Xyber]

You need to start the download manually, yes.

 

[Kvik]

Looking forward to the PC Performance Thread. Although I presume not much effort will be needed to have it locked at 60fps, as it was on GZ.

 

[Houndi101]

Best case scenario 24 hours from now the game has been downloading for 23 minutes and might be almost ready (while I'm already at work)

 

[Parsnip]

Can't believe some people fell for robotrock's post from few pages ago.
Amazing.

I wish Steam had autodownload feature.

 

[Azax]

Will nvidia release a performance guide like they did with GZ? If not, then I will get worried...

 

[j0hnny_385]

I'm sure they will.
Mabye NVIDIA Andy will pop up here to inform us. *Andy summoning chant*

why?

i'd expect to see one around launch, but there's no reason to get worried about the port if it doesn't happen before then.

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

so does anyone have a concrete time when this will be up for Australia? (specifically, sydney time)

 

[whyman]

Hopefully 2 PM but if steam time is anything to go by you will have to wait until midnight the 2nd.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Whatever time it goes live KojiPro pls fix first person scoped aiming.

 

[Spaghetti]

i want to say about 2PM on the 1st, if you have it pre-purchased.

I seem to recall one of the devs/community people said they had read all the feedback for GZ and were going to roll all the fixes into TPP.

 

[Anthony Soprano]

just set up an autohotkey script to download it for you by way of macro. you could easily test this on a game that isn't installed.

or, uh, set an alarm and go back to sleep. heh.

 

[robotrock]

A little less than five hours until this unlocks!

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I certainly hope so because sniper rifles are near impossible to use accurately with a mouse.

Think about how wrong that sounds.

 

[EarsOfASnake]

Are we reading the same thread?

 

[Spaghetti]

no. it's not unlocking at midnight new zealand time.

 

[robotrock]

no. it's not unlocking at midnight new zealand time.

I wish it did. I'll stay up and if it doesn't I'll just play Ground Zeroes

 

[whyman]

Yes what is up with this. I was playing GZ and could not figure it out.

 

[Masaki_]

no. it's not unlocking at midnight new zealand time.

i still believe damnit

 

[Chariot]

We STILL don't know when it unlocks?

 

[pahamrick]

Konami claims Midnight EST, like the console versions. Steam is still counting down to 1pm EST, but it's a pretty simple thing to change the release time.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

At this point, between the unlock times and my trash connection I am expecting to be playing on the 3rd which is a huge shame.

I still find it baffling that there wasn't a Steam preload.

The game files haven't been updated or touched for 6 days, which kinda makes people assume it's finished and just waiting on launch.

the dream is dead. for reals.

 

[Intheflorsh]

the dream is dead. for reals.

It's not dead until 12:01 NZT, damn it.

 

[Spaghetti]

It's not dead until 12:01 NZT, damn it.

and at 12:01 i'll be placing the wreath on top of the NZ unlock time's coffin

 

[JimPanzer]

12:00 NZT time is in a bit over four hours, right?

 

[Skux]

no. it's not unlocking at midnight new zealand time.

New Zealander here. It's still at least 24 hours away, well that's what Steam says anyway.

 

[robotrock]

Dude, you're going to be SO MAD when you can play this game in 3 hours and change. Like, you'll be UNBELIEVABLY pissed off. I'm telling you dude.

 

[JaseC]

12:00 NZT time is in a bit over four hours, right?

A bit over three.

 

[Houndi101]

I'll eat my hat if it happens

 

[Mifec]

3h 10 mins I think.

 

[Spaghetti]

New Zealander here. It's still at least 24 hours away, well that's what Steam says anyway.

the steam page is for supposedly when the game changed over from pre-purchase to regular sales.

the game should unlock for download and play at 5AM BST/12AM EST/9PM PST on september 1st if you have pre-purchased though.

all this info is according to konami.

 

[Spaghetti]

it's dead

let it go, my son.

 

[KainXVIII]

damn, 33 hours to wait!

 

[Spaghetti]

slightly over 19 hours if it goes how konami said it would.

 

[duckroll]

We don't need a separate thread for people counting down to MGSV unlocking on Steam. Everyone can count down together in the OT thread if they want to.
