Exclamation Reminder - Pre-order period ends tomorrow!
Hey guys,

we will release the game tomorrow to our pre-order customers. At the same time, we will raise the price to the standard $39.99 rate, so if you want to save a few bucks, pre-order the game now On Wednesday, OOTP 12 will then be available for everybody else.

Those who have pre-ordered will receive an email with download & installation instructions as soon as we have made the release version available. There is no time table yet, but my guess would be something around 2 p.m. ET.

CU tomorrow!
Markus

Anyone who hasn't preordered should hop to it! You don't want to be THAT guy tomorrow who forgot to preorder and has to wait 2 more days while everyone else is talking about how great it is!

Refreshing bit of honesty, there. May you have scores of johnnie-come-latelys! (If they weren't paying attention or did not sufficiently trust, let 'em pay, says I. )

Or we can wait a few weeks for the all-star break discount.

Warning to those who have not pre-ordered:

Please prepare to be pointed at and laughed at.

That is all.

I know one sale doesn't mean much, but I'll be paying $40 for this game.

Every year at least one person doesn't pre-order and then gets upset the price is $39.99.



I'm hoping for a midnight release! Would be pretty cool...

If you were selfish you wouldn't have warned everyone about the deadline.

If he was selfish that would have cost me the extra money as I forgot all weekend to order. But thanks to the tweet and the post - OOTP will be my joy and complete time curse soon!!!

Ugh.. I don't think my pre-order went through... I have a feeling somehow I'm going to be left waiting the 2 days. I only have a savings/ATM (not debit) card, so cant just redo it.

Markus, what time (ET) will pre-ordering end? I'm in contact with the support email, if this pending thing doesnt go away soon, I might go out and get a visa gift card and use that instead, but that wouldn't be until tomorrow morning.

Mondays my only day off, so want it tomorrow, not wednesday (not to mention the price difference).

Just purchased OOTP for the first time since one of the very early versions. I don't know where I'll find the time to mess with it much, but I've been wanting to give it a try for a while now. Thanks for the hard work Markus.

Anyone out there play WITHOUT the financials and/or free agency? Just wondering what the AI is like without using those.
