Hmm, I wonder how this will work for me. I have a US copy/account, but I'll be in Germany working when it releases, wonder if it will go by IP address or account location?
The US digital copy does not unlock until 12:01 PDT
But D3 is not region locked so he should be able to play on the EU when they go live. Hell, everyone should be able to, right?

The issue is, your copy (if you bought digital that is) wont unlock until 12:01 PDT, so you wont have a game in order to be able to connect to the EU servers.
Australia = 5pm on the 15th. WTF!? That's only 7 hours left of the day. Why not call it an early16th release and stop assing people around. So much for taking the 15th off work and playing it all day. Better let the boss know I'll be in... and in a foul mood. The actual game better be available for purchase before then, you know.... since all the shops ******** close at 5pm!
You will be able to buy your copy at 12:01 AM may 15th. However, you are playing on US servers, which wont unlock until the time given in that blue post (in your time zone) is all.

Yeh I know mate. I think despite everyones childish "I want my first" bitching, I think things would simply be easier if it was just available TO PLAY on set date.

What is preventing US residents from downloading the UK client and having it unlock at the European midnight release? If that requires an European IP, they can simply use a proxy.
The eu client does not do them any good if their d3 license does not unlock until 12:01 PDT ( once again this is referring to the digital preorder tho)
3pm for me in Western Australia and I have the day off also (plus the rest of the week). Will make sure to try and get as much sleep in as possible to play as much as possible for that 1st stint.
Okay, I understand that digital versions are not unlocking. What is to stop me picking up my retail copy 9am Australian Eastern Standard Time, installing it, and setting my server to Europe like I could with the Beta? I'm assuming retail copies don't need to decrypt? I hope someone can clear this point up for me.

Now I'll have to cancel the hookers and kegs.
