Brink’s release date was recently pushed up a week, making the official release date in North America May 10th. However, I’m currently residing in Costa Rica and my steam client reports the release date to be May 12th [which would be the date for Europe].
My issue with this is that CR is in North America [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_america ], so why am I being given a european release date?
I do realize this is out of SD’s field, but I’ve already tried contacting Bethesda/Steam with little success so I thought I’d try this path.
Seems silly to me that being so thoroughly connected by the internet they still implement region locks/delays. On a related note: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/03/22/no-oceans-call-for-worldwide-release-dates/
