The Steam version won't be accessible until 10am PST tomorrow. Aaannnd Dice said they're working on some "kinks" in the Steam preload.

Steam doesnt do preloads for all games.

Its not up to them, its up to the other company whos game it is.

Unless its a valve game then dont expect a preload... there are times when some big name non valve games do preload, but its not something that happens with every big release, just a few if the comapny wants to.

Yeah, I'm annoyed as well. Probably won't be able to play the game tomorrow since I'll be downloading. Weird thing is you can preload off EA's site since yesterday, and I think you can preload off D2D as well.

You could always try setting the Guinness Record for solving a Sudoku puzzle the fastest.

Get home from work, download started... sigh... and I had to switch my cluster to Finland to get any sort of decent download speeds. I don't like Impulse's client, and I don't like managing cd keys through my email, but I think I'll have to start using them more often anyway... done with Steam. I got burned on my last two preorders.

Pre-loading now on steam. Started off alright but now my speed keeps changing and on average, it's going pretty slow for me.
