I got my code for this about an hour ago from AMD, and the game is officially released tomorrow. The only knock that I've seen for it so far is that normal difficulty is a little too easy, but that's it's a barrel of laughs and a half!

I got my code a little awhile ago. Kind of a nice since I wasnt going to buy BD.

Ugh, have to enter a code just to wait for another code from Ubisoft. :|

Hmm I don't recall anyone posting this, but the Biscuit mentioned this live action Blood Dragon video on the (ridiculously long) TGS Podcast the other day:

So, if you need something to get you into the mood while you wait, give it a watch!

Kinda lame that you add the game to your cart, enter the code, checkout, and the game doesnt show up in Uplay. I kinda remember this happening for FC3, but wtf... lol

Same thing here. It still shows as unreleased on uplay. I assume once it is officially released sometime today it will show up for download...

Not available for me in Steam, yet. I assumed it would unlock at midnight last night.



Edit: Ah, I see...2PM eastern.

Well AMD sent me a code for it, but you have to use it with Uplay which is a piece of shit. Uplay still says "preorder" so I'm guessing they've yet to actually release it. My uplay client shows I have 0 games, and 0 order history - as does their website except for one area which is very hard to get to which shows I used the code...

Why is Uplay a piece of shit? The game isn't released yet, so it's not like people are playing it on Steam and you're getting screwed. Your experience right now is exactly the same as everybody else waiting for the game.

In short... be patient and quit being a child :rolleyes:

I just hate uPlay, it's never worked well for me. Their website is difficult to navigate, and it keeps not showing my orders and whatnot. I also just don't like installing yet another game client like it

For some reason I didn't get any email for Blood Dragon.

Ugh... Uplay code? No wonder AMD gave this to us retroactively. Steam guys STEAM!

Almost tempted to just pay the $15 directly, I don't need to have every game installing it's own client. Steam and Origin. That's it. No more.

The steam version of Far Cry 3 requires uPlay as well. Starting it actually starts up uPlay, and then you start the game from there. I'd be amazed if this is any different.
