    @sinsiew79, I understand your frustration but its not time totally wasted if he booked all early access, probably delayed by a day at most. I doubt there's any real preload before the 19th as the game will update through the launcher on that day I would assume. I know that day wasted is still horrible though, and I feel your anger, my partner booked time off too (plays on ps3) and it is frustrating. I was initially thinking they were just going to add it on the 23rd so maybe my pessimism for Sonys ability to get things done on time softened the blow a little. I'm in no way happy about this situation either, I want the ps4 digital version too, but also was looking forward to full early access, nothing excuses this from SE or Sony. I just think as fans of the game we do still have something to look forward too so hopefully, you can still look forward to the game with your family as I intend to and make the most of the early access we do get.

    Every dedicated player wants in on the first day and it gonna be laggier than a S rank up (like 200 players show up) heavensward 1000 players show up + per server and go to one place...... sounds like HELL. good idea for separate starting zones at launch for the different classes. Prob not gonna be like that this time around.

    As it stands if you're not an EU customer you have the opportunity to do just that, we've just been royally shafted.

    @ElectricRoses; while Im happy for your ability to still find something to be pleased about in all this, I do not share that ability.
    I have to work all day everyday starting monday the 22. So personally I won't look forward to my husband and my son staying home playing every day while I am at work. I was hoping that if the EA date was set a little earlier, we could do at least some things together, now we wont be able to.
    I am honestly not looking forward to it at all now, frankly Im am incredibly disappointed in SE, I feel ripped off and I feel insulted.

    My money is apparently so good that they charge me more then my american friends to play, but not good enough to warrant that me and those friends get the same access at the same time.

    Going by how it went when ARR first relased for me on my PS4, now I won't have EA at all, cause PSN will get swamped for hours, maybe a day or 2 days. Then even if I get to log onto PSN I still have hours to wait to DL HW and after all that, I still get to wait some more as it installs. And it is not fair for me to ask my husband to wait for me all that time, when he also has american friends who I know for a fact will want to run wild as soon as EA hits and investigate EVERYTHING with him, and talk over TS about what they discover.

    I’m sorry, but that’s not what i said. I said:

    I haven’t said a single word about “a stereotype that the gaming community lives in their parent's basements”. You made that one up yourself.

    And, let’s be honest here… If you are a professional who has to plan everything down to the T to get some game time, aren’t their more important things to worry about then the date for pre-ordering an expansion of a game (for which they’ve just announced will be released on the 19th of June)?

    It feels like, whatever i say, it strikes the wrong cord with you. Like i’m attacking you in person. And the truth of that matter is that i’m not attacking anyone.

    People are in an “uproar” because they can’t pre-order a game at this moment and that they will have to wait for 2 more weeks. All i’m saying is that people need to calm down… SE does care about their player base, even though it doesn’t feel like it at this time. Blaming SE for what is happening right now does not solve the issue, since the issue right now is that the pre-ordering process has been delayed due to localization issues. This is not new. It’s been happening on for as long as i can remember (which is quite long, i can tell you that).

EU players will have to wait until 2 PM on 19th to even start downloading it, whereas other players get a 14 hour head start with their download ready.

    Also, SE promised us we would be able to preorder. If theres even a slight chance they cant keep that promise they should never have said it.
    No, i don’t think i’m misinterpreting the situation. They said that you will be able to pre-order the game. The official release of the game is on the 23rd of June and for the people who preorder the game, they will grant them Early Access to the game which starts on the 19th. In this case, the same day that people are allowed to pre-order on the EU PSN Store. By definition, it is still correct. The official release is still set to the 23rd.

    However, like you said, PC players as well as people from the JP and NA regions were able to preorder the expansion well before that time and this have the ability to update/download the client when the servers are up.

    There will be a maintenance just before the Early Access starts (like they always do before an update), so since they haven’t announced at what time the Early Access actually starts, you have no idea how big of an “advantage” they will have in the end. If they can even get on the server, due to login congestion. So, don’t hang tightly on to that 14-hour head start just yet.

    Why on earth do people expect the PSN to suddenly collapse when people start downloading HW. It's managed to work perfectly fine with every other game including when more popular games like Destiny start to get downloaded all at once and we haven't come across any issues downloading any of the patches simultaneously so what is so special about HW that is going to be too much for the PSN to handle.

    Just because you didn't suffer problems, doesn't mean others didn't, every time psn lags on me and crash whenever a big game drops. even YESTERDAY when I downloaded the free MGSV GZ it crashed (you can check the reports from others if you want to make sure). when destiny dropped, i didn't even buy the game and I couldn't access PSN for 2 days, because I keep getting "Server is busy" error. not to mention ddos attacks that happen every now and then.

    the whole point of "Pre-Order" is to avoid the hassle of downloading on release. and its only 5 days early if you assume that it will allow you to get it on the 19th on 00:00 which we all know not gonna happen, so pretty much you get 4-3 assuming no delays happens from psn or crashes. if such thing happen then we will have 3-2 days EA assuming psn get fixed right away.
    ALL THAT could've been avoided if they had planned EU early access accordingly, not just assume it will go smoothly like NA . NA have 2 or 3 countries while EU has 30+ countries.
