Even if you don't have your key yet, you can at least install the game now; if you have your key already, enjoy!
No balance changes by the looks of things and it seems we can keep our friends from beta - I really like that Bliz thought of that.

Anyone rocking this already?
Why would they be commenting on reddit if they were?
Yep, played through the first three missions in single player, and two of the challenges. Also played a couple of placement matches. Everything is fine and dandy, very stable, a bit less laggy than the beta (for me).

Question: does it ask you for the serial number before or after you install it?
i.e. could I have my housemate click the install button at midnight as I'm waiting in line at Gamestop?
I went to sleep before I could answer this, so I'm not sure if it's still relevant.
You never have to enter your CD key at all during the installation - you do that before you first start up the game, in order to tie the game to your account. The installation will ask you to activate the game.
TL;DR After
Too bad I still have to wait for my preorder to come by mail just for the CD key, even though I already have the game installed and ready to play.
If you know anyone who has gotten their key, they can give you one of their two "guest passes": 7 hours free play. When you get your key you can even pay them back.
Hrmmm looked at the official midnight openings linked on one of the Blizzard sites... neither Asda in Falkirk nor Grangemouth actualy had the game despite being listed as official midnight openings.
A few other people were looking for it too and being told the same thing.

I forgot it was tonight (for some reason I still thought there was a day to go)
GOD DAMN masters programme. If I were free I'd definitely be down at oxford street...
Can anyone find a stream that's doing match making and not campaign?
Damn! "The Battle.net account does not include an associated copy of Starcraft 2." Why god whyyyy? :(
Have fun Euros!
