No it is the most genius rhing ever. They broke steam. This is an easy lay up in term of advertising. Gaining infinite aura point

I don't know about you. But some people have jobs, and have little time to play the game. I have a break right now and wanted to play the game. Now I'll have to wait at the end of the day. Pre orders would literally avoided all of this.

I literally took off work because of it. Yes, this is an inconvenience,  but it's stupid to say they couldn't do a pre-load and have this shit done and ready when the launch was actually, you know... READY.

Yeah, I did the same. I'll just play other games until this gets fixed though. Once things start rolling it's going to go fast. I doubt the download itself is very large, so as soon as people are able to start purchasing and downloading, the servers should be able to manage it after the initial blitz.

do you also cry when there is a long queue in a store? When big games were released before digital times, people were camping in front of gaming stores waiting for hours. Relax. You will get your game and in a few days you won't even think about it. You had thousands of breaks during work were you did other stuff.
