umm...
why make a timer then if its not released at zero anyway?
...
I just checked. My timer still shows 01 days left. So my timer hasn't hit 0 yet. My date is still June 4th. Not to mention that the timer is showing "days". There is no indication of "hours" so its anyone's guess.

For all timezones, about 13 hours give or take.

Um. No, they aren't. Depending on your time zone, it is the 5th already. You're apparently in New York, so you're in the same time zone as Bethesda.

by the way, the time you are getting that is in the format of =1181000671 is standard epoch time...its a counter of seconds passed since some date in 1970 or somesuch, I don't know the specifics.
google epoch time, you'll see converters everywhere. The numbers you are returning will be different because they are representations of current time in the region you are in.

Ahh makes sense then. Using epoch, with the respective timezones. Explains the .php standard (current epoch, 0000 GMT), taking local set timezone.
Thanks for that.

me too.
But sometimes its fun!
Though epoch never once occurred to me, of course i've only heard of it very little before.
Just so everyone knows, it's taking the timezone setting from your PC.
If you want a real counter (that is still going to be some hours off) switch your PC's timezone setting to EST US East Coast GMT -5:00.
That will show the counter as local to beth's time (EST)

For my bored and twisted personal curiosity
Also, the countdown timer means nothing for the release of the video.
Like the images, its when they put it up. Going by the past, its around 10:00 AM EST.
EST time is -5:00 GMT.
time=1181004349

guys, if you have noticed, when you open
http://fallout.bethsoft.com/gettime.php and keep refreshing it, the value of the time is counting up.
i assume that it is counting up by milliseconds so i converted the time value using Google. This is the formula you type in Google:
"<current time value> milliseconds to days"
ex.
1181003558 milliseconds to days
you can play around with the values.
Now, 1181003558 milliseconds = 13.6 days. Maybe instead of a countdown, they did a counting up to a certain day?
Anyway, im just excited!

Thats epoc time, used in programming from 1970:0000 GMT. counting up until now.
They take that time and your local timezone into account when displaying the date.
Timer aside, 12+ hours till trailer!

Its a guestimation based on their history of posting new images to the website around 9-10 am EST.
So at the earliest 12 hours, unless they are up and posting at 12am EST. In which case, 3 hours, but thats unlikely.
