These SOB's at Striking Distance don't want the game to be played early sooooo baaaddd!!! that they actually made it so the game won't release in Australia until 4PM which in the US would correspond to it's normal release time...midnight. Meaning you cant use a VPN to unlock it early using a different time zone. Seriously people, is it that bad that I play it 12 hours early?! I already pre-ordered and pre-loaded. Or is the game so buggy that you don't want anybody to know until after release?
