What's the point of pre loading days ago, only to have it sit there and tell me pre loading starting.....
I agree! So much for immediately being able to play... pre-load... oh and pre-load again
Soldato

AHhh I saw steam restart and start preloading the last gubbins before I went to work.
I've just RDC to home machine to see that it's complete but not released until later...good old Valve.
I'm at least hoping they have released it by the time I get home at 5:30, before then I'm not that bothered

Current official release time is 8pm GMT.
edit: Here's the info page, it gives you the estimated release time and date based on your timezone - I say estimated because, well, do I need to explain?

Hahah 24 hours late...good job Valve...good job
Edit:- The question is, do I get excited about the release tongiht at 8pm, I know it's wrong to get excited about Valve releases but I feel as it is already 24 hours late, there is a good chance it will be out then....right? RIGHT?

Yep, seems about right. Glad I decided not to wait to upgrade my computer to i7. Did I mention I have an i7? No? Well I have an i7
My Gameservers Left4Dead2 server appears to have activated aswell (OcUK 3 on main page), so I will have a look at that at some point today and see if I can get it set up. (Note it will obviously just be vanilla to start with.)
We'll see what happens with the demo, I wouldn't be surprised if those with early access to the demo had to wait until 8:00pm on the 3rd November, knowing Valve with their lack of time awareness!

So 1pm is the release time now then 
You would have thought they would have been prepared for this before hand. Oh well.

Ive just logged into Steam and im pre-loading again for L4D2 Demo - anyone else had this?
Strangely my L4D2 demo server is running, can't change the name or anything atm, but I'm sure upon release I can.
Seems a bit odd that the server is running before the game/demo is released. Oh well!

yea im preloading now, i thought the whole point of preloading the other week was to play it straight away on release no ?
