    I must say I convinced myself that digital delivery is the way of the future and you can sure see the whole industry moving that way, being in IT myself.
    They haven't let me down yet and I just got an Email from stating that its on its way
    So I'll def have it today, my biggest gripe with Digital only is having to DL massive games, most people have a 1mb/2mb line...It'll take a week to dl 24.8GB xD Also Origin is known to get half way through a dl and then crash, then you restart the dl and it starts all over again.

    Not everyone has 4mb+ lines and not everyone is willing to leave their PC's on that long unattended on slower lines, sounds silly but that's how it is. Basically games are getting bigger faster than our line upgrades. In places like US and UK this is a different story completely. This is coming from someone who has been getting his games digitally (where possible) since Steam's 2003 release (but actually around 2005 TBH).

    This game is after all 24GB's. Many people would rather use their line for gaming during that time than being idle and trying to finish the download in time. Sometimes it's easier just to get a physical copy if you are on 1mb/2mb.

    Anyone else finding the 'Server Refresh' button not working?

    I have to manually refresh my page if I want to refresh the list.

    lol, there is always a patch

    but shouldn't be more than 20min to d/l - I hope

    but I did forget that the game comes with 3 or 4 discs so I can't just start the install and leave

    No, but except for the star to the left of the server name, try to find it to favorite a server when looking at it's details like in BF3...
