What is "less"? Much less or just a little less? A little less would be close to midnight here

Oh well, I think I'll pick up GTA to keep me busy in the meantime..

[xabre]

From my understanding 8.45PM Friday GMT, this is according to a bfnation teamspeak with 4 EA reps.

Demo size is pretty big apparently, 585MB.

Cool, I'm GMT, so I should be able to get it down and tinker with it before it gets too late

585MB might take a while though..an hour or so I guess, assuming a great connection.

Here's a question of curiosity while were waiting...Does a real tank have keys, you know like tank keys to start it up? And if so what if you're in the middle of a war and you misplace your tank keys?

[Lonestar]

well, at least it's out now...and I'm at work for the next few hours...

Wonder what the que line at gamespot is for it too. Will I be forced to buy GS Complete? Why am I asking questions? I like Waffles.

It's not out yet.

 

[Lonestar]

bah, you're right. Being at work, and not trying to hit the button, didn't realize the joke.

 

[ZombieSupaStar]

How much did you pay for that BFG card? If you had some patience you could have saved some money and bought it online from someplace like newegg.com.

 

[ZombieSupaStar]

i bought a 300 dollar one from leadtek that has fried memory and the restocking fee on it alone was 50 bucks

so screw newegg in this case


go through that thread it has people rma theres upto 3 times and even then some peoples after 3 or so months starts exhibiting the same issue.


The bfg one went in no prob

15 minutes time limit on demo.

 

[FiRez]

Banned just for that?

 

[Dr_Cogent]

Banned just for that?

That trick damn near blew my ear drums out with my headphones on. I'm not too unhappy about the banning.

 

[Doom_Bringer]

15 minutes time limit on demo.

that sucks!

 

[Vlad]

15 minutes time limit on demo.

Where'd you hear that from?

If true, that really isn't the best idea. It's not like letting people play Wake Island as long as they wanted kept BF42 from selling...

 

[Mrbob]

15 minute time limit on demo? WTF. Well that'll get hacked and patched and fixed within a couple days methinks.

 

[Rorschach]

They better not have matchmaking only...but how else would 15 min demo work? That's stupid. >:|

oh I see, I just get a 404 so I tought that was the joke

 

[Rorschach]

I refuse to believe that he got banned solely based on that.

Update :

You'll like this one.

The demo has passed all test stages now and is currently in preparation to go live. I'll just fish up some links and work out the timings I've been given and edit this post accordingly, but I wanted to give you the news as soon as possible.

Thanks for baring with us.

just keep hitting refresh

Damn dude, I'm so sorry to hear that. Man, I can't believe they would charge you a restocking fee for a defective product? Shit. Glad to hear the BFG is working fine. Sorry to hear about that bullshit with Newegg.

 

[Dr_Cogent]

I don't think newegg always had that policy. Unfortunately, assholes have ruined it for the rest of us because they are dishonest dickwads.

Personally, I would have been on the phone totally bitching out a CR about it. I would most likely get my way too. I would point out that I have spent thousands of dollars with them and I would cease to do so unless they took care of me.

Squeaky wheel gets the oil and all

Sorry to hear about your bad luck.

 

[GashPrex]

gamspot says demo within the next hour

"Very soon" is here.
