Just don't start your 3 hours until after 8 o'clock. That way you can avoid the ignominy of being unceremoniously turfed out by the scruff of the neck when your time is up, as happened to yours truly. :pac:

can't remember if it was twitch or someone i was playing with, but someone got kicked when their trial ended and they had full game waiting as early enlister, jsut had to relaunch game, but it will not transfer directly over so you are going to get turfed out by scruff of neck anyway

No see if he starts at 20:05, then at 23:00 he can go "Oh, I think I'd like a cup of tea." And then exit the game, grinning to himself while thinking "This was totally my decision. I wanted to exit the game".

Then launch it again, like a boss.

EDIT: Just saw on twitter that cdkeys will release keys at 11am UTC (midday here i think).

11am UTC is 12pm IST. UTC, GMT, IST (daylight savings -1) are in the same timezone 0°. UTC aka. Zulu or space/military time.

Got my key from cdkeys.com and pre-loading now.
Game available from "11pm IST". Assuming that's India Standard time, I'll be able to play from 18.30pm Irish time.

I see someone else is suffering from wishful thinking.

Tried VyprVPN on early enlister date but it wouldn't work for me hopefully you'll have better luck.

Each trial (3) only lasts 20 mins it states on website, sure you would be logging in and out in one round....very messy.

What region would I have to choose to get it Japan/Australia?

I'm going to following this post on Reddit to get playing early:

Had my first 47-6 round thanks to the driver artillery weapon in the train, so satisfying to level a whole building in one shot and watch 4 or 5 names pop up

I had players last night who don't even know how to move the train :eek:

They just sat in one spot and got blown to pieces.

And I bet both are medics that never revive....nothing worse then seeing a medic 3 metres away and nothing. The amount of times I die TRYING to revive is not even funny ffs.

Out of all the behemoths it's the easiest to destroy, a slow floating target ripe for someone with a good aim and an AA flak gun. I'd rather fight a blimp than the train or warship

The big boat is the easiest. Attacked by torpedo boats it doesn't stand a chance. Was in it last night and trying to destroy a boat that was a mile away spamming torpedo's couldn't hit him at all.
