SP first, for me.

I thought about it but the reviews are kind of disappointing (though I am seeing better comments from average players about the general great looks and also the "sweet" section where
you play a female fighter pilot).

I think I'm going right to multiplayer in order to start to rank and unlock ASAP.

Game releases @ 1200am Pacific in North America. ~13 hours!

So even though I'll get it from Game Stop at like 12:01am CST, the servers will be unavailable is my guess?

What's up with this PST bull anyway? I need a head start on some people as I suck too much. :laugh:

No they are already going and you can play via a Korean proxy, for example. See my post above somewhere with a screenshot from Guru3D. Though my plan was just to wait but yeah is it midnight my time zone I wonder? (CST).

I know I can be a pain in the ass but I truly am a good guy in RL.

I agree, was just an opportunity I could not deny. You know I love ya.

I think I'm going right to multiplayer in order to start to rank and unlock ASAP.

I thought about that too, but i know I'm gonna be playing for many months to come, so I'm not too worried. With no real job, I could technically play all day long if I wanted.

Yeah, the game is encrypted, and needs activation before you can play, but, Battlelog is open once you get your key in Origin. Not sure why PST is the thing...I know for Valve, it is PST because they are located there. DICE has no such excuse.

If you want to unlock the game now:

You just need to bypass validation by setting up your PC for a Korean IP which is Launch Day today. Once it's validated and bypassed you can come back to USA IP.

(1) Control Panel --> Internet Options --> Connections --> Lan Settings --> Check "Use a proxy server"
Type this Korean Info: 203.232.208.116 port 8080


(2) Run Origin and unlock the game.

(3) Go back and remove the Korean proxy and now you should be able to fully play in USA servers

--- UPDATE --- The Korean IP is getting overloaded. If it doesn't work try the Indonesian IP with same port.

219.83.62.50

Another Korean Proxy:
183.111.12.18 port 8080

I think I'm going to stay away from forcing the game to play early. I just don't trust EA and what they could do.

Yeah, you'd think people on the EA forums would have removed the thread from the officail EA forums if it was an issue.


But I will not succumb to temptation!!!:laugh:

Haha!

Did it tell you your windows was not genuine?


SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!:laugh:

Doesn't matter anyway, as you can jsut use proxy settings in Wondows itself, no need for third-party softwares.

Just applied to TPU platoon, and sent out a lot of friend request. Having to do all this from phone really sucks (and is cool to be able to do so at the same time), cause I'm blocked at work. Can't wait to play tonight.

Who all is getting on later, and around what time?
