I’ve just tried to redeem my early backer code, as sent in the email, on the Epic client.
All is good, but when I try to install it returns the error message "install failed - could not download installation information (error code MD-0011).
Is this because it hasn’t been released yet (only 90mins to go!)?
Nope, it’s already past 7pm GMT here (in singapore), and I’m unable to download the game as well. Same as OP, I’m getting the same error message when trying to download. Extremely disappointing. Game isn’t able to download even after multiple restarts of the epic game client.
Oh dear! GMT is London time (Greenwich Mean Time). Singapore time code is SGT (Singapore Time). See the planet’s time zones map: https://www.timeanddate.com/time/map/
Snapshot should have announced the release for Dec. 4th, and then anytime during the 3rd could say “A-ha! SURPRISE! Game is ready to install, like, right now!”. And all would be happy
I am sure some would find reason to be upset. Do same time release, and people are upset it comes on an inconvenient time for them, or a calendar day after, make a staggered release, and people will complain that someone can play the game before they do. You can’t win.
Goddamn it i wanna play it before its 20pm in europe, at least give us a chance 2 pre load the game, so we can enjoy it when the release hits the late americas…
