No, my question is "what does preordering do that ordering at 12:01 from your phone/tablet/computer not do?"

I'm really not trying to troll here. I don't understand it here, just as I don't understanding preordering on itunes, or preordering kindle books.

I just explained it two you twice. Someone who wants to go to bed at a reasonable hour and wake up to a fully playable game is enough incentive to pre-order. Any other questions?

Have a question. I like many others preordered the digital version. Obviously it was never there to download at the 12:01 EST. So I went ahead and bought the hard copy a little while go. The question I have is say I download the digital version when it's finally up and then I want to sell the disc version. Do I have to delete everything that was installed from the disc or can the data remain on the hard drive after I downloaded the game digitally. In other words, do I have to reinstall the whole game again.

I've gotten kicked out of the live support chat queue twice now.

In line for my third fail now.

Been a great experience so far.

Sure. That's one reason.

Though it still seems silly to me that 1) 12:01 is an unreasonable hour and 2) you're willing to wake up early to play, but not willing to stay up an extra two hours to make sure you're not getting screwed over, as is happening here.

But it's a reason, which is what I asked for!

Look, we all know at this point we made a mistake trusting Sony. Pre-ordering for me was like I said, I decided that digital was the way I was going to go so why not just lock it up. What's to lose? (Now I know). You get excited for the game. You want to support San Diego Studios as soon as you can. There are a lot of little contributing psychological factors that go into the decision to commit all-in, as soon as you have the option. Plus, there WAS a bonus in points as previously pointed out.

And you haven't addressed my other point that it wouldn't have mattered whether you pre-ordered or waited until 12:30 and clicked "buy now". You'd still be in the same boat.

In my situation, I incorrectly followed the musings of the people on this board that said it would be a pre-load download a few days in advance that PS4 update 1.70 added. This was in fact not the case.

That's a good question.... I just did the same thing as you (it actually will end up not costing me anything), but I'm going to sell the physical disc once the digital version works

Got off the phone with sony at 1115. I was told it will be avail sometime between 1-4pst. Said that was unacceptable and asked for a credit to my psn wallet and was given a request number. Told it would take 3-5 business days.

I then got in my car, drove two minutes, down the road and bought the game. Even if sony doesn't give a refund, I'll just sell my physical copy on eBay or craigslist.

With waking up to see that the download is still not available, I do have some sympathy for those who don't have the game yet. The uproar is actually understandable at this point.

Im assuming you're under 18 then, not because you don't think 12:02 is late, but because you're unable to understand that people have different schedules for their life than you do.

Honestly, we all need to calm down.

I am upset like all of you. I actually ordered digital last minute (cancelling my GameStop pre-order) so its extra annoying.

But lets all just take a step back. The world isn't ending. Sony doesn't all of a sudden completely blow. We don't need to switch to the Bone.

Relax. Breathe. We will have The Show soon.

You just have to delete the game from the dashboard and install from PSN. You saves will stay.

You will have to download the entire version off of PSN. You won't HAVE to delete the installed disc content if you don't want to, but all it will do is take up HD space, as they are two completely separate games. Hope that helps!
