torchlight download ETA differs on major partner sites

[zergpussy]

Hi there i am new to this forum but not new to forums at all,

so please let me ask you if you know why steam offers torchlight today (oct, 27th) around about 23:00 GMT +1 (timezone where i live in) so just one hour before oct 28th, while the chinese (perfect world) offer the game to download around 20:00 GMT +1? Besides wouldn't it have been wiser to specify one release and download date for all timezones? Not because i am european, but if you had let the global community download it exactly at noon GMT, then the US residents would have it in the morning while asians have it in the evening and - we as said - around noon. Not perfect, but still oct, 27th for everyone.

no offense, regards

PS: as i found out i could play it 3 hours earlier via perfect world's download - i just bought it twice - got it already preordered on steam. dang!

PS²: ah yeah and i forgot to say it was confusing that torchlight.com's counter reached zero at noon GMT +1, as it appeared to me, and there was no download possibility discovered yet on the site as announced. well don't feel criticised, i just cant wait to play that game!

It's probably due to each version (PW, Steam, etc.) being a different build. PW was probably slated to get their build first since they're partnered. Either way, if the difference is three hours it's not really a world breaker.
