...I just got an email from my retailer that they canceled my Gold Edition because of stock shortages.

Needless to say I am fairly upset at this sudden and unexpected turn of events.


I suppose there's no reason NOT to go digital now, is there..

This is pretty shitty that they sold beyond their means.

That sucks, SJRB. Grab that digital copy and jump on the pre-load!


There is a grain of truth in every joke, and because of that people will jump on it. I've seen it happen way too often and tear people and their families apart. Too many bans, too many good people lost :(

Lmao :)

That's pretty bad. Either there is huge shortage or huge demand. But at least they told you earlier so can still grab the pre-order bonuses.

So as hyped as we are we all I try to keep myself in check that the login servers will be straight borked the first few days. I think this is going to be huge and no online launch ever goes smoothly.

That said I sure hope ubi proves me wrong!
 
Just found out I'm only on a short shift at work early Tuesday morning. Will be home by 10, then it's game time!

Thrown a few extra quid at my Amazon order to make sure it arrives on release day (standard delivery was still telling me a Wednesday estimate...)

Am I actually pre-loaded? I don't remember seeing this downloading and I don't see anything in the download history. Clicking the pre-load button brings up that message box, as well as right clicking on the game and selecting "View pre-load info"

I really wish cross platform characters were a thing for games like this and Destiny. I'd probably triple dip this game if it was the case :3

I get that there are limitations and issues with things like platform exclusive stuff, different companies not allowing cross play but damn it'd be nice.

I think the biggest issue would be season pass/ dlc

Well cd keys send me the key so i am preloaded and ready. Unlocked a few things with uplay points too. Too bad about the day later. Not sure why the thought that was a good idea (lol at the servers even working correctly for the first week).
 
Hey, does anyone know if this game is super short and shallow like destiny cause I'm super paranoid of pre ordering and getting a destiny situation again.

If the beta is any measurement it will work great
 
What's the general consensus on the season pass? I normally don't consider them but I've heard a lot of positive buzz. I just read the thread about the Arkham Knight Pass and it has me questioning whether or not to take the risk next week. Any thoughts?

It's hard to say definitively since nothing is out yet, but from what they've laid out to us in this video, the season pass looks worthwhile to me.

Maps are quite flat for the most part in comparison to destiny. So if you are one who gives a shit about world geometry am sure that will be one huge point to "boredom".

If you like going pewpewpew and picking up loot in a modern setting and or love braindead cover shooters you "might" enjoy this game.

After Destiny, I'd hold off until we have the game and know how much value the dlc truly has.

Seems to be worth it with all the fancy shit that's coming this year. But I'd play the game for 1 week and see if I like it

"Braindead" seems a little harsh can you elaborate?

will wait for opinion of gaf-memebers instead preordering this time. Don't want to spent so much money on a game again, to have a destiny like situation.

I played in the closed and open but it wasn't enough to really know how the rest of the game was.
Edit: the shooting and cover gameplay was good though so that post above me is weird.

If you need assurances about length or content then, for obvious reasons, we can't give you that information. It might be better for you to wait for reviews or GAF impressions first to find the information you need before purchase. For instance I put in 30+ hrs into both betas combined and for me I just need more of the same but if that isn't your experience or what you're looking for then I'd wait :)

I didn't find The Division that braindead to be honest.

More tactic needed than in GoW from my experience :D
