lol! it will probably be close to that.

Its out. I did not pre-order , so those who did get going and tell us how it is.

DirtyLude · 10-25-2007, 08:23 PM

It shows on my downloader, but the start button is greyed out. Says 12 hours to launch. I did preorder. I can download the Digital Art Asset Pack, though.

Snail88 · 10-25-2007, 08:36 PM

downloading now...public release should be 24 hours from now...dirty, try logging out and logging back into it

DirtyLude · 10-25-2007, 08:41 PM

I set my system date ahead one day and I'm able to start downloading.

Snail88 · 10-25-2007, 08:45 PM

lol whatever works

edit - apparently its not getting unlocked till tomorrow...huge uproar on the ea forums as youd expect. It says to be relased 11 hours from now. Who knows...bed time...try again tomorrow.

DirtyLude · 10-25-2007, 10:02 PM

Yeah, setting the time ahead just let me download it. It won't let me decrypt without a key that's released tomorrow. I don't know if they could screw this up anymore.

EDIT: I got this e-mail:

Quote:

Thank you for ordering on EA Store (US). The date when the product that you Pre-Ordered will be released has been changed. The product listed below will now be available on October 23, 2007

I guess I was wrong, they could screw it up worse. Two days ago?

**jmaker** · 10-26-2007, 12:02 AM

What a debacle this has turned out to be. Of the few people that can run the game, they can only play it through the Sandbox editor. They said awhile ago that the public demo was to be released on the 26th. Even if it's pushed back one day, that's still bullcrap. Blame EA, not Crytek for this one.

**stickyjeans69** · 10-26-2007, 12:27 AM

Confirmed Information- Crysis Demo available 1200UTC for Pre-load customers on the 26th

Available to everyone else on the 27th at 1200 UTC.

Neither Crytek or EA are to blame, this was the plan from the start. it wasn't communicated well enough between the two company's. and the public

**Anospa** · 10-26-2007, 12:42 AM

Hahahaha, wow, now thats some good public relations!

**Red** · 10-26-2007, 01:35 AM

Fun fun fun when EA is around.

**stickyjeans69** · 10-26-2007, 07:25 AM

Demo is preloaded on my rig and the last bits come at the top of the hour

If it wasn't communicated properly, then, yes, they are to blame.

Anyway, as of 8am EST it decrypted and installed, but I'm getting a similar message to what other people are getting when I try to run. "Log in to the EA Downloader to verify ownership' So, I guess I'm still waiting.

DirtyLude · 10-26-2007, 10:39 AM

This worked for me, and I am playing the demo now. About 8 minutes in.
