Crysis Warhead - Gone Gold

I thought it was going to go live for everyone at the same time on Steam. Don't know why the US gets it first. Was really hoping to have a look tonight, but if they are going to make the rest of world wait for 24 hours after it was released in US, then it won't even be finished downloading tomorrow night for me to try :(

Amazing eh? German\Hungarian made game yet america seemingly has to get it first. Don't understand that at all.
 
So have i got this right, 3 installs from the physical disk but unlimited from installs from Steam?

hmm just read it now, its apparently confirmed the game doesn't have securom on steam! and theres practically no install either
 
I take it theres no simple way to trick steam im in the USA?

think the only way to trick it is with a vnc based in the US, although if you have an american friend you can get them to gift it you not too sure if that'd allow you to download it right now though
 
Mine got dispatched earlier today, I'm really hoping that it's delivered tomorrow as I've got a ton of other stuff being delivered in the morning.

Sucks about the steam thing btw, I'm surprised they aren't allowing pre-loading as surely it makes more sense than having thousands of people all downloading the full 4Gb+ on release day.
 
1 day and 3hours to go according to steam.

I would have bought this through steam anyway but now I'm a little ****** as "available on sept 18th" is a blatent white lie.

Seems like every company is going out of their way to con and trick the gamer thesedays. I can see now why EA and steam have teamed up.
 
What are you on about EA have not teamed up with STEAM in any way whatsoever.

As for the release, it's always said the 18th and in detail says:

Crysis Warhead is now available for purchase via Steam and to play for gamers in North America. In addition, the original Crysis is now available for purchase and play by gamers the world over. Outside of North America, Crysis Warhead will become available for play tomorrow (Thursday) via Steam.
 
So here you have it, confirmed by a member on rage3D about STEAM and no DRM

No activation. I downloaded, hit play, said no to game commander gamespy bs and went to play.

Words describe how insane it looks on a 37" 1080p screen with 5.1 blasting throughout. Everything is set to enthusiat level (there seems to be AA as well even though I didn't enable it) and yet it manages to run above 30 fps 99% of the time. It's great fun and I wish you could all see it in person
