Is this releasing at the same time world wide or can we do a cheeky vpn unlock early ?
Soldato
Just got my cdkeys key 
Mine is the same
I just activated the DLC and it said it activated but I see nothing in my steam library relating to the DLC?
I think its a worldwide release on Friday, usually america would have had it on Tuesday if it was a regular release.
Its mp stuff anyway so probably just unlocks with the main files.

I now have every Doom game, which is nice. It was the reason I got into building PCs in the first place after playing it on my brother's LAN back in 94. I then built my first PC using 2nd hand parts to play Doom.

Wonder how long AMD will take getting their drivers out for this one.

I have Friday off, and Thursday half day.
Ideal.

Game is very well optimised. Played from alpha to beta. Drivers no issue.

The retail release of Doom will come with “a single disc,” and like Fallout 4 will require a fairly hefty 45GB download from Steam. Links to officially supported AMD and Nvidia video drivers will be provided next week. Which is also when preloading will begin, specifically at 12 am ET on May 11. The actual “launch unlock and server launch” will take place at the following geographically-dependent times:
•Australia/New Zealand @ 12 am AEST
•North America @ 12 am ET
•Europe @ 12 am GMT +1
•Japan/South Korea/Rest of Asia – 12 am Japan
So going by that it should unlock Thur Afternoon if you pop to NZ for 5 mins lol

Probably time to upgrade from my single puny 240gb drive.

Less than £23.00 with doom666 code from cd keys is worth a gamble. Wouldn't bother at £39.99 however until after launch.
Yay, pre-loading. Haven't used CD Keys before so was expecting an email to tell me my key was ready, glad I checked this thread!
I don't think I need to worry about early unlocks and VPNs, with my connection I just hope I can get it downloaded for the weekend!

I remember the same thing the last time I had a pre-load that included a separate key for some DLC (X-COM 2). I activated both keys and I couldn't see the DLC while the game was pre-loading, but once launched it showed fine. So should all be good.
