I unlocked it the minute (literally, the minute) it was available on Steam (I had it preloaded for a month) I think it came out at 10:01 my time or something like that.

...I stayed up playing all night long, and beat it the next morning. Great (short) game :yes:

They made it available for unlocking at basically the same time I would normally have to set off for work.. I was waiting and waiting, reloaded steam a few minutes after and it started to unlock. I literally loaded the title screen once done to make sure it worked, got very excited but then had to switch off and haul butt into work!

There should be a smiley that looks like it's waiting in anticipation...maybe biting it's lips.

Just tried the link, looks like MS haven't gotten the ISOs up yet. Good thing I have today off so I can sit and wait with the rest of you guys for this :) I'm anxious to test this because I get BSODs with 5728.

No dude, it's not a good thing, you should be out on your day off! ...or at least doing something semi-productive (as oposed to sitting here and waiting).

I, on the other hand, am waiting to go home :) I've got 15mins left! weeee

[Longhorn Tony]

[brlmedia]

You all realize that this won't be on the Vista site? It's for MSDN, TechNet, BETA Testers [the one you received if you were picked to be a tester], and some CPP members. This was on an MS Site:

The RC2 build is 5743, and Microsoft is currently testing it internally. As with the previous interim build, 5728, RC2 will go to beta testers, Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet subscribers, and a random, limited number of Consumer Preview Program (CPP) members.

FYI...

As with the previous interim build, 5728, [/i]

FYI...

And this is exactly how people obtained 5728 (myself included). Via a direct link to the ISO.

CoH does work and plays fine here.

Same over here.

[tmanops05]

They're limiting the downloads...per MS. I'm just letting folks know not to get too disappointed if they can't get it...unless you have Technet, etc.

[seblanger]

5744 out now..

[boogerjones]

5744 out now..

Care to elaborate? Through which release channel is it available?

[Maximum Error]

[Vista]

Guys, we still have to wait 20 minutes until Microsoft puts RC2 on their website. Everyone (websites, rumors) says it'll be released at 11 AM.
