    Most of them will be angry when they play it.  It's not as shiny as the media suggests.  All you need is a open mind.  Just ignore all that, an go in there an try to kill as many of those red mother frackers as you can.

    Anyone activating theirs before a certain time are playing OK it seems.

    Can't think why this would happen bar some huge crippling bug in the Uk version (surely no different from the US?) or a server meltdown which, considering the tepid reviews, is unlikely to happen due to demand...

    It's a weird one.... everything seems fine in game. I just ended up buying it on D2D, getting the CD code from there and putting it in Steam. 



    Bloody Steam.

    Yeah just noticed that this morning - what is up with this game?  It's getting to be a pretty disasterous launch!

    No kidding. It's quite the commendable feat when a game itself knows it's bad, bad enough to remove itself from a distribution service.

    In short: GAME OF THE YEAR

    D2D UK? Assumed that wouldn't work as it still needed to go through Steam. 

    Tempted to get it from Game.co.uk's download service as that's basically just a steam key also and they have a far cheaper price than the others. Unsure whether or not to just wait until Monday to see if Steam clears up the issue and then just buy a retail copy for less and wait for delivery.

    Hmm... reviews have tempered my urge to play it right now at full price. If I can get it for a decent discount (around £23 or so) I might take the jump.

    @Vitor: I think it depends a lot on if you can play with people you know etc... I played with 2 friends yesterday and it was a lot more fun than playing alone :)

    Yeah, don't have a lot of PC playing friends and am currently in Japan so time zone issues would get in the way of a lot of potential GB steam play. However, as long as it's multiplayer W/O bots, I think I'd really enjoy it.

    I love support classes - always a medic. And the way they distribute points here seems like a great way to incentivize  team play. Love the idea of not worrying about K/D ratio and getting the same amount of points for a resupply/heal as a kill. 

    Tempted, but, with The Witcher 2 and LA Noire out next week (the latter I need to import as the Japanese release isn't for another 2 months) I don't have much spare change at the moment.
