EA Link C&C 3 Pre-Order Information

[Sonic 296]

Predator has posted this news for those people who what pre-ordered or plan to purchase Command & Conquer 3 via EA Link. In short, you could be playing sooner than you think.

 

Hey everyone,

 

For those of you who read this post, I am adding in a bit about the world-wide schedule for EA Link. This follows the same distribution method as the retail channel, so the dates for European EA Link unlock still stay the same for this Friday, 3/30. This is timed with when all the European retailers will have boxed copies in store so it all coincides.

 

The note below refers to North America only.

 

I have some extremely exciting news concerning those of you who pre-ordered on EA Link and plan to purchase on EA Link.

 

COMMAND & CONQUER 3 WILL BE FULLY ACTIVATED tomorrow in the early afternoon Pacific Standard Time. That means you can fully download the game tomorrow and not wait until the 28th as we thought the situation might be.

 

Our original intent was to have a pre-load tomorrow, and activation on Wednesday, but we were able to overcome some technical adversities and fully activate the game tomorow in the early afternoon. Keep your eyes peeled in the morning, you never know.

 

We have always had the best intent for our EA Link customers and apologize for any mis-communication or mis-intent. I sincerely hopeful this will cheer everyone up.

 

So despite the lucky few in Asia and Norway who are already playing the game and I guess Canada now to, EA Link users tomorrow will be among the first in the world to have their hands on it.

 

Boot up EA Link tomorrow and keep your eyes posted in the late morning early afternoon, we're going live!
