http://store.steampowered.com/app/22380/ should say when it unlocks. For me (and I assume everyone else) it's in 2 hours.

Same for me. My game arrived today, and I was annoyed to find I couldn't start playing it right away but I was patient enough to wait until midnight. I really hate the way Steam gets with activations.

For god's sake, they changed the time and it won't activate until 1am... you should check the store page or perhaps go to Fallout wiki to check how much longer.

In the US, the earliest they could release the game was MIDNIGHT for the LATEST TIMEZONE.

I'm in the EST, so when they released the game at 12AM PST, it was 3AM EST.

The same is probably going to happen for your country. Wait til the latest timezone is at 12AM and then you'll unlock.

45 minutes to go before release.. I guess you have to endure that... I recommend pouring a good whisky and eating some dark chocolate, while looking at the forum

It's not going to unlock here in The Netherlands until 3 AM our time. I think the whole of Europe has the same unlock time?

The game is supposed to unlock at 12:01GMT; not at midnight in every european country. For me (Holland) my timezone is GMT+2; so it unlocks at 2am in my particular country. ;)

So patience young rad hamster; it will unlock in due time... :P

Yeah, afaik they're dead centre at GMT. But daily savings may be messing things up a trifle; setting them at GMT+1 I believe (which would mean it's been unlocked there for 20 minutes now) :)
