Physical copies of Heavensward from SE Store

I paid for 2 day shipping like many people here. If I end up getting it on the same day or, god forbid, later than people who paid for cheaper shipping, I'm going to be annoyed. Mostly with myself but also with SE. SE should have specified that people will be receiving their CEs at the same date. I'm annoyed at myself for not realizing that this would happen too. I paid for a more expensive service but I'm getting the exact same service as those who paid less is what this feels like.

It seems like a lot of people didn't realize this. But what are you actually getting that is so amazing, besides the early access, that you have to have it right away? A statue? A music CD? Artwork? I'd take the early access first over those any day of the week. Also the in game items won't be released until next Tuesday anyways. The faster shipping is definitely not worth the money.

Have you considered some people want that game disk so they don't have to endure large downloads across multiple systems (more than one player per household), and can do the install knowing that whatever patch their might be from when the game went gold will be smaller than the full download.. having that before early access is why I paid for that super over priced shipping and it looks like i'll probably get stuck trying to download anyway.

Well it is poor judgment on your part to expect it before the 19th or even before the 23rd for that matter since physical stores like GameStop won't even put the product on the shelves until the 23rd. There are laws (at least in the US) that companies have to abide by or they get fined.

I agree that it was bad judgment on my part. It doesn't make it sting less. That's all. I'm just going to learn from this experience that the next time I order something from their store to always select the cheaper option or maybe to even go elsewhere.

I learned that the hard way before too lol That's why I only choose the cheapest shipping for any preorder game If the game is already out, though, that is a different story
