kinda proves the point about goa blatently screwing the UK player base when it comes to release dates.

Blame the big UK retailer that refused to put it in march release instead.

I think we'd be doing just that if we hadn't had so many reassurances that we would be able to get the game today. If we'd been told at the outset we can't release it in the UK until first of April pre-order from Scandanavia instead there'd be much less GoA orientated whining (though still plenty of whining I'm sure).
Even now we don't have an official word on this - if someone would come on and say (either here on on official news) sorry but in the UK you won't get this for another week then most of us could stop chasing every game shop in a 30 mile radius and go back to bed

no blame GOA for not PLANNING AHEAD. Game get well pissed off with being dropped in it by GOA (I know i spoke to them)every single release. Being zerged by eager DAOC chimps harassing them when its not their fault.
All this could have been avoided by telling the distributors in jan that they wanna release in march then all would be roses.

if you exit this thread...and scan up the page to the sticky's section, you will spot a post made by req, an Official statement if you will. i suggest you take his word for it and presume that any difference between what he says and what happens is merely a coincidental fook up/mistake/unfortunate happening that no amount of threads or whining wil fix. if that massive statement (on top of all the other posts) dont satisfy your need for blood i suggest you go play something else for a bit, possibly go shoot yer air gun out in the garden if you have one.

I am only too well aware of the post since I have been trusting it for the last two days as meaning that I can get catacombs today - I can't. I don't want blood I want to know if I am wasting my time trying to get hold of the game on the day GoA said I could get the game to play during the time off I took on their saying that the game would be released today. The statement you point me too does not do anything to help that situation since it says categorically that we will be able to get the game today and actually we can't, the information in it is wrong and as far as all companies that I have contacted are concerned was wrong when it was posted. I have never blamed Requiel for this and appreciate that he didn't have to post here at all, however, I would expect that there ought to be somethign on the official pages that recognises the fact that the release date in the UK is NOT today.
