The bigsavings code will work till monday morning US time. But it's possible they'll put a block on black ops before that time

Went the D2D option last night. Game is now pre-loaded and awaiting my key. It seems to integrate with steam. Oh and $44.96 is what I payed

[Harbinger]

worth noting that australian dollar went past parity.

[Ratty]

ORDERED via D2D and downloading now, epic speeds as well must have a 3FL mirror so win win

[Unseen]

i went D2D as well .. downloading as we speak .. just awaiting the key.

D2D have now stopped selling to Australian, New Zealand, German and Japanese customers.

[grandinferno]

Ok. Bought D2D copy, downloaded, but can't install without a key which they won't release til the US or UK release. How the hell am I supposed to play now then? Obviously I can't until the release time. But which will it be? US or UK?

[rec]

UK are already playing. USA unlocks in 8 hours on Steam - likely the same for D2D.

[grandinferno]

I don't understand though. They know I'm AU, but I still have to wait for the US release? Sucks.

[rec]

They're an American service. It would be like buying it from the USA region store on Steam.

And now they've banned Australians from using D2D anyway.

Well that was short lived! lol

[CyphiX]

God dammit! Got a "Failed File Verification" at the end of the download.

Short of putting in a support ticket to D2D, anyone know why this has happened?
