    Weird, there was some page on Steam that I clicked on a few days ago and I could have sworn it said 9pm Tuesday, and that it supposedly automatically adjusted to my time zone (EST). If I can be playing this tonight at midnight than that's awesome because it's a full day before I expected the game to unlock. But knowing how this stuff goes down, it will probably end up not actually being playable until sometime tomorrow.

    I think it would be a little more understanding if the question was (as someone asked above) if it was 12am the midnight between Monday/Tuesday or the midnight between Tuesday/Wednesday. Not understanding that 12am means midnight and 12pm means noon is retarded.

    Is there anyone here still interested in buying a 4 pack, or have a license left over in a 4 pack that wouldn't mind selling one to me?

    Edit: Spruchy and I got a group together and just completed the purchase.

    I might be interested in a 4 pack. I assumed everyone that wanted it had it by now so I was going to just go with the 10%. Maybe if we can find a few more...

    I hope there are a couple of minor fixes. I noticed that after a zombie dies there's a one second or so window when you can shoot them and do more body damage. One thing I was able to do was shoot zombies legs out as they were already stumbling around, making them stagger on a leg that wasn't there.

    I hope they also did something with bot teleportation on single player, there have been a few times where they literally teleported into my sights while I was sniping, and a single time when Rochelle teleported away from the other two on the gauntlet and got nabbed by a jockey.

    True, we all have.

    @ Endaro: Try trawling the thread back a couple of pages or so, there have been other people asking to get in on a four pack as well recently.

    I'm so ready tonight.

    To try and build on my earlier suggestion, I'd like to try and have a team set up before the game goes live. I want to try out the first campaign, any difficulty is fine (but I suggest Advanced at the most).

    My Steam name is Primoman. Got a mic too.

    12 AM should mean noon.

    I mean, it goes 9 PM, 10 PM, 11 PM, then 12 AM. that seems counterintuitive.

    Is there a way to change the field of view? I felt the demo felt very tight and zoomed in for some reason. Maybe it's just the gigantic weapon models, but I like a much wider FOV. In TF2 I rock a 90 sweep.

    Not really. 11:59pm and 59 seconds etc etc is the end of the day.

    If it went 10pm, 11pm, 12pm then for the next hour it would still be 12:59pm despite being quite clearly the next day.

    yes but that means the numbers go 12, 1, 2, 3, etc

    either 12:59 should be the end of the day, and the day should start at 1:00, or they should just make it 0 to 11.

    Or, you know, we use the much more logical 24 hour clock.

    Woo, 5 and a half hours until it unlocks.

    I'll be asleep, but I should be able to get an hour in before work tomorrow. Boxed copies are released on the 20th in the UK.

    Seems weird.

    edit - Although it is Valve and I guess they want to sell it to as many people through Steam as possible

    Also, the demo of this is rad as hell. I can't wait to play the real version!
