Pity there's no vpn trick to unlock it early, tried new Zealand, Australia etc, no luck. 11pm is a really odd unlock time.

i bought from singapore so unlocks at 5pm

So there is a VPN workaround to unlock the game early?

nope, no need, it unlocks in the timezone you bought the game in.

ie. if i bought from uk it unlocks at 11/12

i bought from singapore so it unlocks 5 as per the unlock time guide they posted

Not really sure it works that way seeing as your windows app store most likely has a uk account and ip associated with it.

You're playing on the potato though

Anyone up for some Horde tonight? it really is muchos fun and no doubt even better with comms and not a bunch of pugs.

Played yesterday, 2nd place scored 105k roughly then I sat at 200k. They basically just left me to run the turret as I'm sure they were console players so my aiming with the turret was ripping through stuff.

There is only 1 win in there.

Has anyone bought from Simply Games? There's no mention of it being compatible with Win 10. Is it a given that it's cross platform?

I think it's only if you buy a digital copy, and that's a physical disc.

What! This game has cross play? :eek:

I'll be completing the campaign first but will be jumping on for some co-op and Horde later in the week.

So whats the general impression on this then? As good or better than the predecessors?

Crossplay works for campaign, horde and private versus games. Only place it doesn't work is public versus rounds for obvious reasons.

i like it .. its classic gears .. campaigns a little short I have the ultimate edition and almost completed it in only a few short hours so disappointing that I will have finished it before official release

Cant comment on the multiplayer yet as I haven't played online yet

runs well at 4k Ultra with no hitches so far, play anywhere is great and syncs to xbox lovely

I hope you took a shower afterwards, playing with Console Peasents :mad:
