From what I read on the forums 9pm PST(or midnight EST)

So download starts in about 16-17 hours.

depends on who you ask, the city size itself is a bit smaller than sc4. its the size of the medium lots, not XL lots anymore. But game play wise its just as deep, complex, and challanging as any Simcity was (and even a bit more in some aspects).

So if the online connection, not having the XL city size, and having to use origin isn't deal breaker, Id say get it.

People are speculating that the game will unlock at 11pm Singapore time, or about 4.5 hours from now, with the possibility of being able to use a VPN. Partially based on this response from EA Singapore:

So what VPN you recommend?

And is there any instructions on how to use that VPN to download that in origin.

I just tested it out using blackVPN, which I have a ton of server time on due to referrals. Here are my results: http://i.imgur.com/tVmMLRE.jpg

It says March 4th, 9:01AM when connected to VPN (less than 3 hours from now), but after disconnecting and restarting Origin it reverts to March 4th, 11:01PM.

As far as instructions go, it should be pretty simple. Just connect to the VPN and unlock/download the game.

Edit: Seems to me that it uses my IP address to determine my location and uses my PC clock to give me the release time displayed as whatever timezone I have it set to. Time does not change in Origin when just bumping my clock forward.

I decided to order the game through GMG and got my key instantly. Hoping that the VPN works since I work third shift.

I was just watching one of the streams on letsallbemayor.com and noticed that at least twice the game got very laggy. Both times they finally just restarted their computer without acknowledging what had happened. Both times it happened after around 1 hour of playing.

Indeed. Hopefully it doesn't affect gameplay too much and/or they fix it (not holding my breath).

A little tidbit, according to EA Singapore the download will be "blazing fast if you are on fibre broadband!".

Hopefully if that what it is, its isolated and rare. Cant say in the 200+ hours I had in the beta I had that issue. So maybe its not common

Correct. They might base it off of your ip address though. I live in the US and ordered it last night. Received an email right after ordering.

GMG say keys will be sent out on release, but I have had keys early from them, so make of that what you will.

Restart Origin. I'm downloading now: http://i.imgur.com/FJqXzvQ.jpg Won't let me download after disconnecting from VPN, though.

Edit: The Origin download size is 268.32MB.
