In both Denmark, Norway and Sweden i'm pretty sure it's a long weekend this weekend.. so the game will be released AFTER we've all had a good long 4 days weekend where we actually could be playing the game and forgetting we have jobs, kids, wifes etc etc...
I've been thinking about it for some time now, and i really feel it's the wrong decision to let us have it only when it's normal working days again...
Couldn't we at least if prebought get the possibility to play the game during the weekend? We've all seen the friendly blorg streams and we know it's workable!
Come one! I've been playing your games since EU2 release and i'm basically buying all your titles (grand strategy) but this is simply wack! Please let us enjoy the game in the weekend during the night time like it was supposed to be played, with lots of coca cola, sleepless nights and chips!
Do a prerelease or something, show that you really care for your hardcore fans who've been following and supporting your company for many years now.
