I will start playing as soon as servers open
12:01am EST = 3:01pm AEDT - so yeah I'll be playing. Server launch is ideal for NZ and Australia. Pretty good for the West Coast of the US too.
Dear Unemployment,
Please stop getting in the way of my free time.
Sincerely, Unemployed.
Lol can't stop laughing .Quote:

You're asking him if he (and his store manager) are willing to break the law... on Trions forum?Quote:

Great launch time for UK too :)
Means all I have to do is wake up early and I can start playing from morning throughout the entire day. (and by day, I mean month)
MacDeath I meant at the 12:01 am mark it would Tuesday and wonder if he was able to get his copy then. Plus there is no law saying a independent company can't release game to a customer/employee after midnight of a day before launch.Quote:

I've been bouncing around in TERA and Scarlet Blade, but those two will likely not see much play time during the first week of Defiance.
So, yeah, I love to be there from the start and will play a fair amount of hours the first week, but I won't be living, eating and breathing the game during release week like I have done with other MMOs in the past. (I know I played over 80 hours of GW2 the opening week. I'm not sure I'll ever have the opportunity/desire to do that again with a future MMO at launch. I'm going to guess 30ish hours of Defiance opening week).

I took Tuesday and Wednesday off completely then scheduled "remote" work for Thursday and Friday. So I will be joining you at midnight tomorrow. In the meantime....I guess I will just keep checking on the patcher every hour so I don't "miss anything".
im retired so ill be one all the time if anyone wants to group up to knock levels out hit me up ingame either phatloots or Hotshot . depends if one get taken before i can save it
Not for me. I'll be up bright and early as usual though (I'm on Eastern time. No way I'm playing from midnight through the day)
See you all in game... As long as you're on the PC ;)
Yep, I'll be starting at midnight. Gonna be streaming as well. So if anyone wants something to watch... c:
good idea mim ima stream aswell!
Pacific- 9PM Monday
Mountain- 10PM Monday
Central- 11PM Monday
Eastern 12AM Tuesday
I'll try to explain this, you don't get to play early, unless your copy comes early...
1 you preorder online or on Ps Store Or Xbox Store (if the sell it)
2 the place you preordered from has a midnight release.
If you don't meet either of these requirements you will be one of those waiting until
1 Your store opens.
2 if you didn't preorder hope they have extra copy's
For Central Mountain and Pacific you all have to wait until Midnight your time...
why because you don't get it on Monday. They give it to you Tuesday. Unless a Forum Master can explain better that's the gist of it.
My local GameStop will not have a midnight release, so ill be picking the game up after work.
Hmm, I'm not good at converting timezone,
So if the game launch at Tuesday 4AM UK timezone, that means Tuesday 11AM Indonesia time zone (GMT +7)

I haven't checked if my local Gamestop is having a midnight release. I doubt it, but I'll call them tomorrow and ask...and also to verify that they got my UE already.
I plan to play as soon as I can...
50 hours and 10 minutes.

I am still unsure about listening to a moderator stating a run time v.s. the game itself.Quote:

I have had some bad XP from moderators in the past - just saying. So far SH seems to always be on target though so I WILL be up at the midnight hour, heh heh
Well, since my GameStop isn't doing a midnight release I'll probably just cancel my pre-order and pick it up at midnight at Walmart when they shelf it. I really wanted the bonuses, but I really want to reserve my names.
When it comes to MMO's I'm super OCD/anal about getting the names I want. ;)
Sleeping on the couch, alarm set for 4am, week booked off work :)
I've done the exact thing!Quote:

Try that one
EDIT: Unless the site gets confused with timezones... but then what's the point of the site.
I'm going to stay up till 11p and see how things go with the launch. I'll most likely play for a few hours if all goes well, but I'd rather go to work on tues and have all evening and the following day off to play since I'm only getting one day off this week. Plus there is a huge possibility there will be some server issues on the first day, its almost guaranteed to happen so I'd rather miss that.
This is more accurate fir a 12AM EDT launch.Quote:

Kids have spring break, I'm gonna keep em up late with Pizza and LoTR marathon then play all morning in silence while they sleep... or wait in a queue in silence either fine. My youngest loves "mandatory fun"!
Just hoping my Gamestop UE arrives on time... So no idea if I'll even be playing on launch day.
Sucks that my gamestop is not having a midnight release because the sales of fully paid off games is short. So I am going to get it early, you can't even play it either way since the servers will not be open till after midnight. :P
5:01 for me!
I don't think my store does the midnight release for this game, which really sucks. :(
I am, and im expecting a smooth launch since thise game is spread out nicely on 3 different platforms with their own servers.
