Going to preorder this from Best Buy tomorrow. 20% off with GCU and $10 in rewards seems like it's worth taking a leap of faith.

Plus this week is 30% extra trade in credit on top of the 10% gcu trade in bonus. I'm trading FC4 for $33 and paying $50 for this. Oh and the $10 best buy bucks.

The PS4 version is available to download now in the US, it gives you the option to download the Single or Multiplayer first.

EDIT:
16.8 GB and you need 5.12 GB before you can start playing, it's pre-load so that doesn't really matter. 1.75 GB update.

Just pre-load not actually playing today right?

These guys are on my shitlist from now on (already had the russian version ages ago) for announcing that and pulling a switch with no bonus so late.

Sure, you screwed up by having a whole gameplay mode as a pre-order exclusive - you know you're dumbasses for that already, but no bonus to all the suckers that pre-ordered/bought your game - are you trying to piss off everyone with a single game?
You could have added free dlc promise or even a fucking skin or two. No, just a complete lack of care and massive greed.

I hope it's good and still ends up getting bashed tbh. Though I hear it's only got one difficulty mode so probably not.

Don't even care and won't touch any dlc. No more money from me, not even rubles, dicks.

Cool that Be the Zombie is free now, but it should have been a normal part of the game instead of a pre-order incentive to begin with.

Anyone know if amazon provides ps4 codes before the date of the game? (Can buy digitally from amazon, have a gift card so why not?)

Don't get code until 27th 3am est.

So you were mad that people who pre ordered were getting something others wouldn't and now you're mad that that they don't get something else to make up for everyone else getting the aforementioned bonus?

Calm down up in here.

It was an angry post.

They did right to get rid of the pre-order requirement - that's obvious, but when you advertise something big like an exclusive game mode as a bonus and replace that at the last moment with nothing then you're still showing your greed and are screwing people over by not offering any alternative whatsoever for the bonus you're taking away.

It was bad enough I had to preorder to get a game mode because the game seemed interesting and I didn't want to be locked out, despite not being fully committed.
Now I'm locked in with no real reward for taking the risk (other than the cheap version I got, but that's not the same for everyone).

And no difficulty modes...what :/ Not giving these guys the benefit of the doubt next time.

You're getting the same thing you wanted to get and now you will have more people to play with! Cheer up!

With the nature of the mode it doesn't actually benefit me that others have it.

I've got a game pre-ordered that I wouldn't have otherwise, and it's for nothing - unlike originally advertised. I could have been safer and waited and still gotten everything if they hadn't twisted my arm by promising to lock me out of a game mode.

It's not a massive deal but it pissed me off big time with how they handled it after already being dicks about things.


Anyway. I should chill, folks are right. 1 day left now.

Worldwide digital PC release january 27 ... So the best case scenario is that the game is out in South Korea/Australia in about 6 hours?

If the unlock times are updated, yeah. As it stands the game is unlocking in AU/NZ and Asia at the same time as the US (a little less than 23 hours from now).

I bought the Russian version and vpn activated it, completely forgot to check about languages...

I am rubbish trying to understand the steamdb is there a way to see if the Russian version has other languages, principally english

A game's data depot names aren't unmasked until it has unlocked, but you can see that the rest-of-world and RU/CIS standard edition subs both have 14 depots, so it's safe to say that the latter isn't "language-locked".

Looks good, Framerate seems stable and i haven't seen any tearing yet. Makes me hopeful for the PS4 version.

Is it confirmed that we can do the full campaign coop ?

Thanks.

Yes:

Dying Light features seamless drop-in/drop-out co-op for up to 4 players. The multiplayer is fully integrated with the campaign and allows the players to complete quests together, explore the quarantine zone, and take part in special co-op challenges.

How much did you pay for the Russian version

Not that I'm aware of. Possum's post is the only one in the entire thread that mentions the game.
Are we allowed to post there and ask if anyone knows what is happening with that? Like if Possum had anyone helping who has access to finish it?

Wasn't it closer to $18?

Ah, yeah, looking at XE's USD/RUB history graph the cost would've been around $20 if he bought the game when it went up (September). Forgot about the RUB greatly depreciating in value recently.

I saw the Russian version for $10, how does that work if I buy it as obviously I am not in Russia

I bought the ultimate edition on ebay for £23, they then sent me a gift with VPN instructions....

I am not comfortable doing VPN but here in Europe we have been screwed over due to the physically delay, I had it on order from Amazon for £18 but that was the PC physical...

I was going to buy a ROW version but the moment they announced a delay in Europe prices went from £20 to £30 in a heartbeat...

I don't know how steam reacts to the VPN trick as it is against their TOS, but just about every key seller is now advertising the VPN method steam is going to be busy if they decide to act :)
