[with the utmost respect possible]

I don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything, but why does DICE refuse to answer questions about the change log?

I counted around four people in this thread asking about it.

It's cool that you've got us knowing what's going on! Keep the preload coming, can't wait for it.

On a side note...

WHEN IT COMES OUT IT HAD BETTER BE EARLIER THAN 8:30 PM PST OR I CALL COP AND BE SAD.

We know you want a changelog. There is however little point in posting anything else than the actual changelog.

While you are trying to release the game in 2.5 hours in the US, that is irrelevant to the steam version as it isn't out until 3pm EST.
I'm on a college campus, and being able to get a preload going would be much help

Hope you guys can do something, or maybe talk to valve to get it released earlier.

Cos they have to deal with Steam's lalalalalalaing up their preload? Kudos to DICE for trying to get them to release earlier, we'd have to wait til tomorrow 11 am more or less, if I can download and play some rounds before 2 am I'll be happy.

Tough if I had ordered through EAD I'd be playing right now dammit ¬¬

Is there any new pre-load info? Also, a midnight release would also be good.

You think they are trying to get steam to release earlier? When i read his paragraph it sounds like they are just getting the retail copy released at midnight, not steam.

some perf improvements.....

Hope you guys can make it a little better than what the beta was for duel core cpu's. I didn't like the 20 average fps.... But I shall believe in dice.

Does that mean the game will be out by midnight EST? Or am I misunderstanding.

You are misunderstanding. Also, let's look at this, shall we?

EADM Users: Preload, Patch out, able to play
D2D Users: Preload
Steam Users: Nothing.

sorry, I messed up release times. Steam release window is probably the same as indicated earlier, not in 2h.
