I had mine ordered to arrive today. I checked my ship status, and it won't go out until tomorrow. I hate it when there is an arbitrary change in a release date. ARGGHHH!!!

How hard can it be to find 3000 parts?

It took me what, an hour to find all 90 parts in the demo? so then thats... 33 hours to find them all?

thats EASY.....

March 1st + 2 weeks (14 days) = March 30th? ... Am I missing sth here? I kinda want the guide btw if it has a list of the upgrade locations.

33 hours is longer than one whole day. If you play for maybe 2 hours a day (depending on other commitments you might have, such as work or school) and then spread that among all the other activites to do in game, I think a whole 33 hours is actually quite a long time.

Original estimated time of delivery was March 1st but came March 1st I got an email apologising for suppliers being spastics, i meant to say 2 - 3 weeks but anyhow they can still hold stock for weeks without being allowed to release it
