Most of my preloads didn't go live till Sunday night, not Saturday night.

weird anytime i have been awake at the time i have been able to download my games at 12am est sunday other times i have just woke up and its been downloaded automatically so i cant be sure if those started at midnight or not.

Man, this is some foolishness, heh. I preordered the digital deluxe edition and it's started downloaded. It also downloaded a theme for the PS4, however, the theme is for some reason locked out of use until the game actually releases. As though the theme were a game in itself. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

it's always like this, which is really dumb
 
Gotdamnnnn she ugly!
Preorder canceled!

Finally got it to show up. This is what I had to do:

Library --> Horizon --> Activities --> "I liked Horizon" post --> Show Game Information

The download button finally came up.

Thanks. This should work. I didn't have "Activities" available so I just searched for the game

Library --> Search for Horizon using the search bar --> Select the game and "Download" button should be up

Had your same problem. Rebooted 3 times. Then I took off the beta an loaded back up the old 4.07 an the download option appeared over the overview option when I looked for it in Library.

Yep, I was on the beta thanks to a burner account. I had to go back to 4.07 to get the download option to appear, nothing else worked.

Doesn't matter. I'm on the beta too. No restart nothing required. This should work:

Library --> Search for Horizon using the search bar --> Select the game and "Download" button should be up
 
Go to the PS Store, like/rate the game. Go back to the library, click on Horizon, go down to the Activities tab, click on the post about you rating/liking the game then click on Show Information. The Download button should show up now.
I got it to work by deleting the beta. I was just addressing the post saying beta doesn't matter an that solution works. I'm telling them it didn't work for me.

That didn't work for me..

Does it still show as pre-order in the store?

There are a lot of ways to access the game, through the PS Store, in the purchased section in Library, On any activity for someone playing the game, etc

For me it only worked when I searched the library using the search bar not by selecting the game tile directly. I have the Deluxe version so the Art Book was available on a separate tile, I chose it first and download was there then I chose the game and the download was there too.
 
Well, it didn't help that their Editor-in-Chief was taken aback by the game's glowing reviews because what she had seen/heard wasn't favorable. I'm guessing they would've handed the review to a more experienced individual if they felt it was going to be a critical hit. This is all conjecture on my part, of course.

I'm guessing had they know it would turn out to be a big hit with the gaming community in general they would have taken it more seriously. Could be they though because it was GG that it would bomb? Does anyone know what they reviewed the Killzone games. I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm curious.

I don't even want reviewers to talk to each other before embargo when they write a review. Each review should be written in a vacuum.

I don't know if anyone asked this before. But can you unlock the pre-order outfit in the game? Or is it exclusive pre-order items never to be seen again unless bought as separate DLC?

Well, she hinted that she talked to Eurogamer about it being sister sites and all that.

I still never understood that.

Female character showing skin = objectification. IIRC someone claimed it 'completely undid' all the good things HZD was doing for female characters. A similar sentiment was echoed on the thread about representation where it was deemed a 'lost chance' because Aloy is a white female.

That's one of the least offensive costumes I've seen female characters in and look at the costume that's saying a lot considering this industry
