I'm guessing the different release times are based on time zone. Mine is midnight EST, but that would be 9pm for someone across the country. Hmmm, midnight EST is Tuesday 1 AM where I live. Which is the same unlock time Origin's been showing since I pre-ordered. Did you have a different release time before?

Mac Walters @macwalterslives For those who completed their MEA early access, what % of game completed are you at? Just curious. I see what he's doing there. Anyway the content is gated so he should know.

Showing that it's a long game, it takes 10 hours to get a bit more than 10 % of the game done. Which is an uneven comparison to make when you can easily spend 10 hours not progressing as far as the next guy because you like to walk instead of sprinting or just look at stuff. Mac is always so transparent in everything he does. He's trying too hard and always thinking size > substance. It goes against everything I want as a gamer.

Which is an uneven comparison to make when you can easily spend 10 hours not progressing as far as the next guy because you like to walk instead of sprinting or just look at stuff. Mac is always so transparent in everything he does. He's trying too hard. Oh I can assure you, I've been taking my sweet time with everything, talking to crew, exploring Nexus and Tempest and with almost 1,5h in cc as well and I'm above 10% too. So it's really weird because I just got on Eos and really didn't do much the last thing I did was meeting Peebee with none side quests on Eos made. so I think it's really strange that this early in the game (at least this is how it looks like to me) I've got over 10% of the game done (I'm not exactly sure on the number, but last time I checked before landing on Eos I was at 10% so I'd guess now it's just a bit more than that). If someone wouldn't spend so much time in cc and explore all of Eos, how much would that be? It felt like I got really nothing done and to have 10% of the game already behind me is kinda weird. (unless it counts only main missions? maybe? and there's still a lot of content not counting towards % of the game done)

J. Gildersleve @jgildersleveog I'm loving MEA but others have legit concerns about CC and face animations, are there any plans to patch fixes in down the line?
Michael Gamble @gamblemike looking into both of these. No official announcements yet, but it's important to us

SomebodyOfNobody @of_somebody Did it bother you that you couldn't manually save during priority missions in the MEA trial? It was my only big complaint. ☹️
Tom RyderSon @taylorson Haven't run into that issue. I think I'm gonna use my trial time for multiplayer. Otherwise - I'll fall painfully behind everyone else. 😁
Henry Millman 🕵 @millman_henry Have you played much of andromeda, and did you play Bryder or Fryder? Your work is incredible, the 10 hour trial had me stunned! Tom RyderSon @taylorson Just multiplayer so far. Only single player was last night on stream

It takes 3-4 hours to reach that 10% I guess that percentage is linked to the main quest

Considering that there was only the intro, a bit of crit path, and some side quests on the Nexus, it was a bit surprising to see that I had around 11% already finished. I guess this might hint at the length of the main quest.

There are plenty of positive opinions of both the early access and previewers. In any case, it seems the embargo is about allowing streaming of those with review copies of later parts of the game, maybe to address some of the issues of the early parts.

It seems the embargo is for streaming. Streamer are allowed to show beyond the 10 hours trial tomorrow , well those with a review copy. Makes some sense, as the streaming numbers for Andromeda have dropped like a rock as there just isn't any real gameplay they can show beyond multiplayer once you hit the SP gating. These streams help keep the game in the consciousness of potential customers and drive a portion of the sales numbers. I remember Fallout 4, as just one of many examples, having some fairly high viewer numbers in the 2-6 days prior to launch (in the realm of 4-8x what Andromeda has hit) and I think it did drive sales up a bit (despite the many, many issues with the game). Andromeda, by comparison, has really struggled with those viewer numbers yesterday and today, which is actually somewhat worrisome in terms of driving sales. It will be interesting to see how the viewership stands tomorrow and Sunday, but moreso it could really shed more light on a number of hot-button topics (such as animations, writing quality, content density, romances, etc., etc.). Personally I'm torn on whether I'd watch or not. On the one hand I'd rather not spoil myself any further. On the other.. some of the issues are ones I have concerns about and am interested to see how they develop as the game goes on. Most likely I'll pass on watching, but keep an eye on the streaming numbers out of curiosity. It is an interesting decision to lift the embargo on streaming content beyond the gating point, especially with how closely guarded Bioware has been regarding the game's progression, and in my opinion, is an attempt to win some fan support back but I have some doubts as to whether it will work as they intend. It will really depend on which streamers jump on it and their reactions, as well.

Haha I guess as a gamer from the 80's, graphics and voice acting are something I am still blessed by and appreciate no matter how many issues it has at the start. I get it. I used to play a lot with the super nintendo on the 90's, so i appreciate how far games have come. Complaints about animations? Depends on your starting point.

Well, that's like saying the ending debacle of ME3 wasn't really that big because many people said 99% of the game was great and the final 1% ruined it. I don't see the comparison, expecially because at the time not everyone thought the rest of the game and features were good. And the aumont of negativity for the ending was bigger then the aumont of negativity for the first part of the game. By far. The positive opinions are as many, if not more, of the negative ones. At worst, based on the early access, the game will have average rating. I'd hardly call it a colossal shitstorm. Now, the situation can get worse after the part people are allowed to stream to talk about, but that's another matter.
