Will anybody else not be able to play for a few days?

Well, i could play, for there is nothing else i need to do, but i can't, because i ordered the game from play.com today as i absolutely refuse to use Steam(ing pile of ****), and they don't have a next day delivery option, so if i'm lucky i'll get it Thursday morning, if i'm not lucky i'll get it Friday morning, and if i'm very very very unlucky i'll only get it next Monday morning.

Just reassure me that i'm not the only one who won't be playing tomorrow, because it feels like i will be.

Don't worry. I just realized I don't have enough money for ETW, so I probably won't be able to play it until some late next week...

I have to write some exams next week, so I won't play as much as I want to.

If Game insist on charging £45 for it, then I might just not get it.

I'm almost certain you'll still have to activate it on steam.

I plan on playing it tomorrow but you know what it's like with these things, something disasterous is bound to happen. Like a freak tornado appears and sucks up only my computer and every copy of E:TW in town.

You'll still be using Steam in some capacity... activation is handled through it, whether you bought a boxed copy or digital download.

I think it's a good thing. I would rather have Steam than SecuROM.

My copy is on backorder

At least my new video card will arrive in the mail before the game so when I do get the game I can hopefully enjoy it on High instead of Medium.

Steam reports about 9 hours before it will allow authentication. I imagine anywhere from 4-6 hours after that will be needed to download. So it will likely be mid-morning tomorrow before I'm able to do anything.

well...my computer broke just last week, and I need to send it back to the store since it's only a month old.....so yeah I won't be playing for a while for at least a week
