Minimize the game and take Steam offline. As long as Steam remains offline you should be able to start up and shut down the game as often as you want.
I could go back and check but I'll just ask, has anyone posted any good FREE NZ VPNs?

Would like to know this too.
I ordered from ShopTo who sent them out yesterday, so I'm kind of expecting it tomorrow to be honest

where are you on the Bethsada Game Defense Board
I got a Bingo.
Why don't you do something awesome and plan ahead, like drop a decent weapon at the bottom of an easily distinguishable water source and leave it there as like an emergency hidden supply drop that you can come back to if you need it 120 hours later when you're wandering through that area beaten and bloodied?
Sounds more awesome than you initially thought, doesn't it.

Conflicting reports, but there are some vids out there showing some bad framerate drops. We should know a lot more tomorrow.

holy shit, "You can go to that mountain," made me spit out my water
Edit: "You can drop trash on the ground and the game will remember."

Ha I actually hit a lot of those. Nothing is going to stop me from enjoying this game for so many hours this week. Nothing. That said, it seems like there are some issues.
Edit: No Bingo though.
Mine was dispatched from ShopTo yesterday too.
I wouldn't expect it tomorrow though. Apparently ShopTo don't do Royal Mail drop offs on Saturdays so it's probably still sitting on an outgoing trolley in the warehouse until Monday.
Same happened to me with GTAV. Dispatched first class on Saturday but didn't get it until the Tuesday.
Early game spoiler on how to get an extra SPECIAL point at the beginning of the game.

In the game start, there is a book, "What makes you SPECIAL?" It is in the character creation section in your house, before the war starts. This will give you an extra point, allowing you to make/plan a starting build with 29 points. Spoiler from strategy guide image: http://imgur.com/InBBzkC
Check out the 56 minute video. There really isn't anything doom and gloom the way that thread is presenting itself.
You have to use the VPN to keep playing? I figured you just use a VPN to unlock it then you can switch back over to your normal net.
In Steam Store?
My VPN software says I'm my current location is NZ, but the Steam countdown still says the game unlocks in 30+ hours, all the prices are in euros etc... This is a bit disconcerting.
Frames?
oooh useful
Did you sign out of Steam BEFORE you turned the VPN on?

You do switch back. But don't go online on Steam or it'll reset the time. If you do go online keep using the VPN.
Yeah, tried restarting it a couple of times, too. Browser does think I'm in NZ - mylocation.org, for example, thinks I'm in Auckland - which makes this even weirder.
I had to change my store country from account settings (clicked my account name and went from there). It showed the country where my account was created and New Zealand.
I feel like it'd be the same for my friend as well. I'm excited for the game, but I can't really say that I play Bethesda games for the graphics or the story. I play to get immersed in a world that allows me more to freedom to play however I want than any other open-world RPG I can think of. Fallout 3 had an amazing map, and if Fallout 4 is anywhere close to it, it'll be my GotY.
Also I'm playing on PC with a GTX 980ti so framerate concerns aren't really important to me.

Mine didn't auto start so I just started it manually, go to your games library and click on Fallout 4 then click the download button which should be up.
From what I read Steam will try to always display the store in the language and currency of where your account was created. See above how I managed it.
I usually go male but the voice actor is boring so... I dunno.
Ok, so just switch to offline mode after it unlocks I would assume?

if you can't decide then just go with what you feel like playing as.
I am playing male because I'm a guy and like to play as guys. Simple as that.

Try FlyVPN. On their site is a login and password for a free account. Just enter that into the program when logging in and you can get some NZ servers under oceanic.
You'll also need to change your location in Steam for the game to unlock in 19 hours. (at least I did).
Oh and you might need to download the extra data for the game through that proxy, which will be very very very slow.
If you do have to, change the preferred download server in Steam to one in NZ or you'll just be bouncing your data half way accross the world and back.

This 56 minutes latest youtube ain't so bad i think.
I'm gonna play female.
I'm gonna play female.
Press kits have all three in it.
Oh alright, I suppose it's just displaying the Finnish store then. It does have NZ in the Store Region list, so I assume it works.
Phew! Not long to go now

One thing I haven't seen is metro tunnels like Fallout 3. Are those back in?
