| Yeah DCUO was the same on the PS3 space wise, and what with the painfully slow download times I couldn't play day one, had to leave it running overnight. |

Registered 16 years agoI wouldn't be too surprised if you got pre-order stuff anyway - most times I've got something from GAME on or around launch day, they give out whatever pre-order bonus there is anyway, such as the Crackdown 2 armour colours or a Pokemon Guide.
No guarantee though, but hopefully

Registered 16 years agoNot sure if it's been mentioned a few pages back but Syfy/Trion have posted the first 14 minutes of episode 1 on their site. It's region locked but Unblock US worked for me.

Immediately ties in with the Episode mission arc from the beta, which is nice.

Registered 17 years agoConsidering how weirdly explained some of the in-game detail in the beta was, the manual is nothing but the control layout. -

Registered 17 years agoAnyone happen to know if the disc install is actually required on 360?
I did it anyway, as I do it with all games, yet I loaded it up and it's doing a completely seperate in-game installation now too. -

Not a huge amount of point in a big manual, from what we've heard from the couple of PC betas there will be dynamic changes to both the game and the UI. -

Registered 17 years agoFair enough. Was just hoping for a proper one is all. MMOs usually come with a big, thick annual full of fluff.
Got it from Shopto, Staffy. -

Registered 9 years agoO good I was starting to lose faith in shopto so that's promising. -
Should be waiting for me at home, ready to go at launch! (i.e for the server crashes) -

Registered 16 years agoThey'll probably have them up on iTunes quickly. I don't use that so will watch it on other sources. I saw the 14 minutes on good ol' YouTube, which I posted in the Defiance TV thread though I have no doubt it'll be removed by now.
I popped up to my local ASDA to see if they had any of Friday's new games. All the have even vaguely new is Bioshock Infinite, except a good few boxes for Defiance. Given the lack of new releases, that surprised me quite a lot. Pre-order boxes for this, in among the new games. It could be a sleeper hit. Or maybe not, I don't know. -

Glad I am away for Easter: hate having new games that I can't play. -
Video up from FRANKIEonPCin1080p (big DayZ / BF3 / etc video person), doesn't look too shabby. -

Dave Nice does Youtube. -
How does a guy with that voice and that total lack of useful content become a 'big' youtube person? -
Probably DayZ videos, which I watch faaaar too many of. His voice is even worse in those! -

Registered 16 years agoI knew full well from the postage option I chose it wouldn't get here by tomorrow. I still do. But I hoped, man. I hoped so hard! I thought it'd just happen anyway.
I can totally see me buying it on Steam too. I'm of 2 minds though. It's pricey as heck given I'd basically be paying £35 for:
Phoenix Sniper Rifle
"Steam Powered" title
+10 Inventory Slots
A lockbox
A-Tex Growler vehicle
RM Nomad M4 vehicle
Rift: Storm Legion (I don't have Rift)
And crucially, I can play tomorrow!
Everything else I still get if I'm patient. But I'm not patient

I can't comment on your patience, I cancelled my Amazon order a few days ago and picked up the digital edition from GMG because I was convinced the postie would fail me. Despite never having a good day 1 experience with any MMO I can't help myself...
On the upside I still got the Amazon pre-order code.
