He said it'll be 9/9 somewhere in the world. Retailers won't give out the game until the 9th but somewhere in the world when that time hits the serves go live. So Theoretically speaking.. if you have a copy on the 7th or 8th you could potentially play if you switch your time zone on your console

So, it stands to reason, when GMT clicks over to the 9th (they are also the first possible times zone to herald in the 9th) the severs will go live and then everyone who has the game can begin playing. Your time zone might still be 9/8 but somewhere in the world it will be the 9th.

  • It is true. He said the retailers won't break street date which is 9/9 but the servers won't know the difference because once they're turned on the game is live Everyone will see lol I'll be EST and playing on the 8th

  • Maybe that's true, I'm not sure why he didn't just give a straight answer. Doesn't affect me though because I don't plan on playing until afternoon to make sure I don't hit any server issues.
