Hmm.

I'm strongly resisting the urge to request a guest Key right now. I must wait until I've finished exams on Wednesday...

Oh, that was a rather moronic post of mine then! Well, time to wait and see what happens I suppose!

Nah, Blizzard said that install would be activate 8am pacific time, which is now .

 

[Strife212]

Bodes well doesn't it, I bet the servers won't even work at 11.

 

[Jegethy]

Was there an official announcement saying you could install from 16:01? Or was this just speculation?

There was an official announcement - 08.01 PDT, which is 16.01 for us.

Just checking their site now, says 17:01 CEST, which is 16:01, oh Diablo 3, y u no install?

 

[Broken Hope]

It is kinda worrying that they can't even flip a switch to allow the installer to work, what's actually going to happen at launch.

 

[Hunders]

You are supposed to be able to install at 16:01 as it says so here.

 

[Strife212]

Wouldn't it be funny if the installer was broken so it couldn't receive the launch message, all those DVD copies would just be paperweights

 

[powlesY]

Is there anywhere that has this in stock and still do next day delivery at this time? It seems really silly that no one offers a digital download and the gamecase gets posted after.

Apperently if you downloaded the install files before the 12th you need to rerun these downloaders to fix the files before it will install

Doesn't bode well for tonight does it. Oh Diablo why are you so addictive!

"We've decided to shelf this one with Starcraft: Ghost at the last second"

Well according to their Launch Day Preparation Guide

Early Install
We will be unlocking the game's installer at 17:01 CEST on May 14. This will allow you to begin installing the game, troubleshoot any issues you run into, download and install the launch day 1.0.1 patch, and be ready to play as soon as the servers come online.

Don't jinx it! Expensive paperweights at that

There's probably someone sitting there with a massive grin on their face, watching everyone going wild over their game not installing.

 

[MouthBoy]
