Yup... absolutely nothing from Amazon. Really disappointed in them right now.

EA is probably fucking them right now too

I'm just mashing the refresh button hoping to see it not greyed out.

indeed

GTFO FUCHSIA TRIANGLE

Either them or EA but either way it's bogus to make those who are in the release day wait 3 hours.

 

[Dead Prince]

obviously haven't sent out the key. yep. good job EA lulz.

[TheQueen'sOwn]

Same here. I've gone from LET ME PLAY IT to PLEASE LET ME SLOWLY DOWNLOAD IT.

 

[Phreaker]

Still no download option

Me neither, still says THIS GAME IS NOT RELEASED, even after refreshing my game library, logging out and back it, etc.

"This game is unreleased"

Oh, Okay EA.

 

[Gaming Truth]

Yup... absolutely nothing from Amazon. Really disappointed in them right now.

It's working ...

 

[Nuklear]

So long to go....

 

[Row]

this is mine, and countless others, first experience with origin and this is a bad start

Ya don't bother relogging...just mash that refresh game library button lol.

 

[krpiper]

So on my download page on Amazon it says

"Available on March 5, 2013 at 12:00 AM (US/Pacific)"

Does that mean 12 Pacific? which would be 2AM here

Pretty sure the game servers are barfing right now. I just tried to swap cities and it's been "loading" for the past few minutes, whereas before it loaded in a couple seconds.

I'm trying my hardest! FML

 

[FINALBOSS]

Man, if Origin servers can't even handle people hitting the refresh button on the game library window...I can only imagine what it'll be like once people get in game--lol.

 

[sl4yor]

Ordered through gamefly, got the key at midnight. However, origin has been "preparing download" for quite some time now.

 

[OchreHand]

Wooooo. Got it working!

 

[Lonestar]

"This game is unreleased"

Oh, Okay EA.

heh, you too?

 

[JambiBum]

Wooooo. Got it working!

How!

 

[MrCompletely]

its a good thing they did 3 betas

 

[sado]

Is there a way for us to get the url to the launcher bypassing Origin?

 

[Pyrogeek]

Still showing Not Yet Released even though it is 9:13PST on Origin.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

Yup... absolutely nothing from Amazon. Really disappointed in them right now.

9 pm preload is only for orgin preorders everyone else has to wait another 3 hours

 

[SRTtoZ]

Gray circle of death!!!!!!!!!

 

[Stasis]

Booooo. Preload solves everything. I'm pretty sure I preloaded ME3 in Origin... dunno why they couldn't do it for SimCity.

I guess unlocking schedule revolves around location/date of purchase. I'm assuming they're also sending keys out to Amazon etc. simultaneously.

 

[OchreHand]

How!

I kept refreshing and signing out of Origin lol.

But I think it's now stuck at "Preparing Download."

Noooooooooooooooo.

 

[Phreaker]

Ya don't bother relogging...just mash that refresh game library button lol.

Roger that!!

 

[MrCompletely]

Still showing Not Yet Released even though it is 9:13PST on Origin.

same for me

 

[sl4yor]

Wow, the origin portion of the download is quick, almost a percent a second.

 

[pahamrick]

My DDE upgrade order processed and I got the email it's ready for download. LE Order is still sitting at submitted with no product key.

 

[Raven77]

My wife LITERALLY went into labor 3 hours ago and I came home to start the download!!!!!!

[flashburn2012]

Yeah, game servers are dead from what I can tell. So don't worry that you aren't able to download it.
