Pre-Order Date confirmed . . . but a time?

[Faelandaea]

I tried searching the forums, but this forum's search function is about as awesome as the search function on the game's market boards (basically where you need the first word of an item or you can't find the item at all).

As for Google, all I find are dozens of articles with a date, not a time.

So what TIME does this go on sale? Is it midnight PDT/PST? Or is it another particular time? I'd like to know so I can arrange my schedule to grab the full CE the moment it goes live so I can get my copy before they sell out (with this game's popularity, physical CE won't last past 30 minutes past going live, so I want to be sure to get mine).

Thanks, guys, for any leads.

If you want to be sure to grab it before it's sold out why not preorder?

I believe they want to know when the preorders for the Physical CE will become available on that day so that he can get his preorder in before they run out.

As for the question, I do not know and it would probably be best to just park yourself at your comp at midnight PST and just watch over the website like a hawk.

From looks of it Pepitastore Inc which runs SE online store is located in California which I would guess would be available at midnight in Pacific time zone, SE stated that preorders would start on the 16th of march.

Uhm . . . . right . . . . that's what I am intending (see subject of post).

Hehe . . . so for work that day I think I am getting sick ~cough~ Safety first ~cough~

With SE and FFXIV server time being based out of PST, that is my guess also, but I was hoping maybe I missed a piece of published information somewhere that verified for sure. I am hoping that SE announces time particulars as the day grows closer.

Well, unless something else comes up, I'll assume midnight PST and go from there

Honestly I hope that people who subscribed to the email letter get the ability to reserve it first. We know they will limit one per customer as they do with their other collector's (sometimes two). But if the e-mailer does nothing then why bother have us sign-up for it in the first place?

To answer the question most logically it will probably be 12:01 AM PDT.

Oh man. I'm having terrible flashbacks to when the housing wards became available

Hehe. What'd I miss there? I had taken a break from FFXIV and came back after housing was already here.

On Excalibur at least, once maintenance finished up, the entire server exploded from the huge influx of people and they broke it ; ; I was dumb and stayed up all night and it took me hours to either get in, or stay logged in for more than 5 seconds! And then all the plots I wanted were taken anyway. Ahhh, how the cookie crumbles!

Oh wow. Yes I heard horror stories about that.
