It's dumb, but I'm so tempted to purchase digitally instead of picking it up at Best Buy with my GCU on Tuesday.

I usually get all my games at BB because of GCU but I went digital with this. It's my most anticipated game of the year and unlocks at 9 pm for me. I figured having the extra hours of play time on day one was worth it as opposed to saving $12.

 

[Primethius]

is the world as open as ds1 and ds2?

are the areas connected the same?

It's more like DS1 yes, interconnected and all. DS2 wasn't really interconnected so I hesitate to say it's like that.

 

[Trust me. I'm a PhD]

Aaaaaaaaand pre loaded^^ Cannot play it until Wednesday night, but I will be ready now^^

 

[Dubz]

Pre loaded. 9PM Pacific is the unlock, yes?

 

[Kerrinck]

Probably a dumb question but where do I see the game download status? Pre ordered it but all I got were a couple of files with a few gigs each.

 

[Sylas]

Pre loaded. 9PM Pacific is the unlock, yes?

Correct. 9PM Pacific/Midnight Eastern.

 

[Primethius]

Probably a dumb question but where do I see the game download status? Pre ordered it but all I got were a couple of files with a few gigs each.

Hit options on the Bloodborne icon and go to information.

 

[CLEEK]

Used Vita remote play over the internet for the first time just now. Lag aside, it's sweets being able to remote into my PS4 at home and check that Bloodborne has downloaded and installed.

Did I mention that Bloodborne has downloaded and installed? Because Bloodborne has downloaded and installed.

 

[void666]

Pre-load completed. Now to play the waiting game.

 

[JoseTheTaco]

Guys i got an email from sony for the pre order that says it unlocks monday at 9 pm. I live in Massachusetts so yeah

9 pm pdt?

 

[Wounded]

Ordered from the US PSN

I'm in the UK. I get the game for £40 and almost 3 complete days earlier. Seems like a no-brainer.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

9pm Pacific time.

 

[JoseTheTaco]

9 pm pdt?

It just says 9pm

 

[Primethius]

It just says 9pm

It's probably PDT as that coincides with the countdown timer for the unlock.

 

[charpunk]

The struggle between physical or digital is increasing!

I wish I didn't like collecting physical CEs.

 

[JoseTheTaco]

It's probably PDT as that coincides with the countdown timer for the unlock.

Yep im dumb

 

[BashNasty]

Right there with ya man.

You guys should do it. You'll get to play the game earlier and you have no discs to worry about. Win win.

 

[Vantriztic]

Pre-load complete. Man, the next 24 hours are going to be hell. Damn you IRL difficulty spikes!

 

[DSix]

No preload here in Europe yet. I'm feeling impatient.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

So they pulled release a head an hour?
Edit: nvm doesnt seem to be true

 

[Gromph]

You can listen the full version of Cut you down.

didn't know the full version is out, thanks!

 

[calder]

Turned on my ps4 to play a little counterspy (which i like a lot really) and bloodborne, which downloaded earlier today, started a 2.69gb update. I assume that's the 1.01 patch?

[zoobzone]

The download button for Bloodborne on Japanese PSN is there, but theres an error when you click on it.

Guess it's not fully enabled on the servers yet.

 

[SargerusBR]

main game and update downloaded. Now i wait

 

[Ace Harding]

This is the first time I've ever preloaded a game. It's weird. Bloodborne is just sitting there on my hard drive.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

Preload complete. Shame the game unlocks at a ridiculous time for me as I'm in the UK

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

You can listen the full version of Cut you down.

Ruby Friedman?! I remember her from Justified!

 

[DrM]

I hope that they begin with preload sometime today

 

[RoyaleDuke]

main game and update downloaded. Now i wait

Man this makes me hope there are stories similar to the ones in Dark Souls in Bloodborne.

Fucking Caterina Knights and Solaire are my bros.

 

[Atilac]

How are people playing it early on twitch?

 

[zoukka]

How are people playing it early on twitch?

Stores always break street date somewhere around the world.

Game went on sale on Friday afternoon here in Slovenia. Our biggest retailer doesn't give a rat ass about official release dates. I could snatch a copy, but I have game preordered on PSN

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Going physical this time. I want this one in my permanent collection.

 

[CraigerGamer]

Thank goodness it did a pre-install. I got an error notice saying the game couldn't download...ran out of room on my HDD. I'd have never known I was out of space and trying to download Tuesday would have been terrible.

Check you HDD space folks.

 

[onimushroom]

I wish the US version had separate trophies from the EU version so I could justify double dipping with this terrible exchange rate.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Going physical this time. I want this one in my permanent collection.

Same here. All that is left now is to find a nice cozy spot to wait.

 

[DealWithIt]

Good luck to those of you with really slow download speeds.

Thank you I need it! 99+ hours apparently... Lol

My wife and I went to my parents' to use their fast cable internet to download Bloodborne. It was a life saver, the 5GB play-go dl was gonna take 40 hours to complete.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Guys, pause/resume the download, download the update after the game is fully installed.

 

[DealWithIt]

Guys, pause/resume the download, download the update after the game is fully installed.

Is there a second patch? The first patch downloaded fine for me. it installed as soon as the first 5gb download was done. after that it just downloaded the other 20 GB with no trouble.

 

[Mik3F]

I hope that they begin with preload sometime today

Usually the EU preload starts the day before release at around 12pm

 

[kamorra]

I'm trying to avoid spoilers so I ask here. I always play Dex Characters in Soul games. What do I have to choose in the beginning to get a similar experience? Is Skill the new Dex?

 

[Gattsu25]

There is a second one according to the OP.

I'm the OP. I never said that

 

[Robot Pants]

I'm trying to avoid spoilers so I ask here. I always play Dex Characters in Soul games. What do I have to choose in the beginning to get a similar experience? Is Skill the new Dex?

Seems like it, yes.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

I'm trying to avoid spoilers so I ask here. I always play Dex Characters in Soul games. What do I have to choose in the beginning to get a similar experience? Is Skill the new Dex?

yeah, skill is the new dex. from looking at the origin classes it looks like professional or troubled childhood is the best choice for dex. professional has 2 more points of dex but 2 points less of endurance.

 

[kamorra]

Seems like it, yes.

I see, thx. Is Bloodtinge and Arcane like Intelligence and Faith?

 

[SargerusBR]

Seems like it, yes.

What are you doing here? GET TO WORK ON THE OT!!

Spoiler

 

[nel e nel]

Local store here in Brooklyn has broken street date, saw it on the rack yesterday.

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

Couldn't resist and bought it digitally from US Store just now. Can't wait to play it in ~19 and a half hours!!!!! HYPE!!!
