Someone should get the OP to get the title of this thread changed to "Wasteland 2", just for clarity.

How do you change a title of your thread?

Would anyone have any confusion about calling the original Wasteland, "new", it is what 26 years old. Or perhaps clarity for our time traveling friends from 1988.

My old card was gt440 and it ran Wasteland 2 beta pretty well, especially after the last update,l on full HD and only AA turned off. There was some lag on the frame rate on particle heavy maps, but overall the game was very playable.

They've been optimizing it all the time and improved performance quite a bit during the process. I'd guess they'll continue doing that till the official release.

And the game is, indeed, pretty huge. The beta area alone is the size of what most games would call a whole game. There's some voice overs, but only on important characters and no pre-rendered cutscenes. Only thing of that nature is the opening cinematic, at least for the time being.

Odd question. Will backers who get the physical rewards receive them before this date or will they be sent out around this?

I saw a notice from UPS that I was getting a package and not remembering that I ordered something online I was ecstatic that I might be getting WL2, but unfortunately I was disappointed when it arrived and it was just the clothes I ordered. Reminded me of Christmas time as a lad and opening that present full of socks and underwear.

Bro None is the best person to ask. Maybe quote him instead.

Probably not before. Still wait-and-seeing on exact dates.

Must resist the urge to get sucked into the Beta again. I want to wait for the release for my next run through.

Another NASTY little surprise. If you ordered a boxed version, it will be Steam-ified unless you email them before hand and then it will be shipped at a later date.

"Every physical copy tier comes with a digital version of the game also, where you can pick the fully DRM-free GOG.com or Steam. If you prefer a fully DRM-free physical copy we will be willing to print and ship a day-1 version of the game to you at a later time, simply contact us through the Ranger Center if this has your preference."

Just got a response back that I will still be able to play the digital copy day 1.

Larian did that with D:OS...still waiting for my standalone dvd version though.

I already contacted them stating I want a DRM-free physical copy.
It took them 33 seconds to respond:
