When will SW:TOR be released?

[Ninsew]

So, after playing on a friends acc last night I decided to buy the TOR when it goes live.
My question is, when will the game be released? I don't want a time (unless it's Swedish time), I'd rather want a "it's released in 13 hours" statement.
Thanks.

(Yes, I've been googleing.)

From what I've read, I believe it's released in 8 hours and 35 minutes.

[Ninsew]

Okey, thanks. Do you have a link or something that confirms this?

You say you have googled this question but you quite obviously have not or you would already know the answer.

The 20th at what time if I may ask, I'm from Denmark, and I'm just sitting here waiting. Hoping for a release at 3 am.

Says its going to be released in 1h 40min, is that correct? or is it just countdown to 20th?

It says 8hr 37min to me, so it must be relative to the location.

Thanks. Guess I'll be waiting for a long time then.

If it says 1hr for you, it might well be 1hr. I'm not sure if they are releasing by time zone or not.

6am CET

Why wait until it's live? Unless I'm mistaken you can buy it now, get the data downloaded and when it goes live the data activates and you're up and running. If you wait until it's live before you buy, you'll just be also waiting for the downloads.

They're having maintenance on the servers before the game launches, when the servers are back up the game is launched.
EU servers are coming down 01:00 swedish time and ETA on the maintenance is 5 hours, thus release at 06:00.
(Maybe it still technically launches at midnight, but since the servers will be down I don't think it counts.)

Why the hell are you bumping your own thread, you dont need to do that wtf

[Lagwin]

Acording to the timers it should launch at midnight in the uk(just under 2 hours now)...just in time for the start of maintenance which finishes at 5am

that maintenance shit is bullshit. My friend is up and playing at Early Access. My local time is 00:50, servers were supposed to go down for maintenance at 23:00. They didnt.
