You would think they would have posted something a few days ago saying what time it will be available today or at least promote on the news feed again.

Maybe it's not sixteenthy enough yet.

I don't like to say SE plays favorites but sometimes they do make it blatantly obvious. It's been out for the Japanese for a while. I could understand if it was box sales, but this is the interwebs. Meh :P

Well they took down the old link to the previous collection down from the website, so something is going on at least.

I guess, well it's 10 pm in japan so they've been sixteenthy longer XD, but still its a download not a box, they should've just set a timer to activate a link.

Read a CR post a few weeks ago. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...5648#post85648

Head piece is separate code. :)

Probably, hopefully. Allthough I wouldn't be at all suprised if it didn't.

The release date isn't the seventeenth. Nice attempt at trolling though :)

You're misunderstanding. You say favorites when its well past 16th of May here when over there it's barely afternoon?

That isn't trolling. Maybe you should use google and read a more clear understanding of the definition.

First post on this site. Just because that Ultimate collection banner is up does't necessarily mean that the game is available.
We had the exact same banner up in NA about 2am CT this morning. You cant even by the game from that banner page lol. I was interested in purchasing it to add Abyssea to a sub account. I haven't seen anyone in game with Reward item as well and shouted to see if anyone purchased it. It will probably be out later. We all know by now SE isnt quick to make announcements on issues. The only actual place that i saw that had it available is gamesplanet.com (EU site) but it has been available for purchase for like 6 days so makes me think that it was a pre-order type of deal. My conclusion is it will be available when they get it available. Not trying to rant or anything but if it was to be released on time.... There wouldve been partner sites (if its offered by them), ready to take our money with banners saying buy now.... yada yada yada.

maybe they are trying to trick people into buying the old ultimate edition ~ kind of like a last hurrah for sales?

You do realize Japan is ahead of us right? Not behind. It's the 17th there now.

You do realize Aerir is in Japan (or seemingly so) right?

I saw it up on their website 12 hours ago. Presumably it was up even before that though I don't know for sure and won't presume to guess.. It's already noon here (well EST-wise) and it's still not up. (12 hours ago would have been noon there - roughly.)

Unless they're releasing this by Noon PDT (probably) we are behind schedule.

Without prior knowledge how the hell would anyone know.

By reading the replies to this thread, it seemed kinda obvious to me from his/her posts. I don't know them, I just read what they posted.

I'm pretty sure SE has a contract with Steam. Since steam releases new content at 1pm, I'm willing to bet that's when it will get released.

I expect it will be released Noon PDT, or.. yeah, it'll be on Steam. I'd honestly be really happy with it being on Steam.

Sorry, not really familiar STEAM anymore since the old CS days. Does STEAM put up a product page/release date like Amazon does? Or does it just pop when available? I only ask b/c...well there is no page for it. Thanks in advance!

I'm not 100% sure how it will or if it will be advertized on the front page. Best bet is if it's not on the front page at 1pm east, do a search for it and see if it's available for DL then.
