Heavensward Preorder on PSN (EU) - MIA!

[Natsuno]

That's just as bad as SE "thinking" Pounds = Euros = Dollars for the collectors price in UK. The Eu team manages to pulls something ridiculous again.

I wasn't thinking something similar... .honest. >.>

Atleast PC acc owners got to sort their EA out with little to no prob.... no, wait. That took three passwords (and an inability to actually buy HW from the EU store for days, only to find out, yes, that really is the price of the UK Physical CE and not a typo). :s

Poor show, delaying the PS store version til EA start.

wow just wow... so if theres any issues like there was on the US psn then we will miss out on the pre orders bonuses all 2gther.. really hope SE learns from how they handled this expansions availability when it comes time to distribute for 4.0

what happens then?? what if psn is down during that period?? we miss out entirely?? is SE n SONY positive there wont be 1 issue with psn n the expansion when the 19th comes??

So let me get this straight. First as a UK citizen I have to pay more if i want the physical collectors edition. However if I want the Digital Collectors Edition I have to wait until the first day of early access (And from experience I would say the PSN store gets updated at eithe r10Am or 2pm GMT) meaning i have to spend part or most of the first day downloading the game (provided they have fixed the bug by then that prevents people who have played on PS3 and upgraded to PS4 from downloading HW).

Is it just me or is there a double standard going on here where US and JPN are getting preferential treatment over the rest of EU and UK. There is no logical reason why we are always either getting charged more or getting things last instead of at the same time as everyone else.

We pay more for the same product (quite a lot more for brits), no EU servers nor a specific date for them (yet) after two years, etc., and now this. Way to show that you care about the EU, huh?

I play on PC, so this mess doesn't affect me directly. But still, that doesn't mean that it doesn't affect people that I know and other fellow european customers. It's NOT fair, it's NOT well done, it leaves us open for bad things to happen, and you KNOW it, Square. I don't know if it's Square's fault, or Sony's, but I'm pretty sure that something could have been done to prevent this from happening. I hope that shit doesn't hit the fan on the 19 and a lot of people don't get screwed just because they live in a specific area of the world.

[FF-FANATIC]

Seriously?!! On the first day of the early access!! wow just wow SE!

[Lollerblades]

They already shafted the UK with the pricing. Just adding more shit to an already overwhelming steaming pile of crap.

Not a great way to keep customer loyalty!

As somebody who is (I should better say was now) incredibly excited for heavensward, this feels like a big middle finger right into my face
Since I live currently outside from Europe, I cannot order from the SE store. Since I prefer digital purchases anyway, PSN is my way of shopping. Thanks for leaving us with stress whether or not we will have EA! I for myself see the psn dying straight after 19th June. And let's pray nothing else happens like ddos attacks or something. What a mess and disappointment!

Edit: I live in Japan right now which makes it even more ridiculous. It's right in front of me but oh wait.... Japanese edition is not compatible with German edition!

look how many times psn has been down lately.. how can they guarantee we will have preorder bonuses n early access when they cant predict somethin happening in those 4 days that will prevent most of europe and australian/kiwi players being able to preorder in that period.. this has gotta be the worst decision ever and would love to hear the reasoning behind why they left it this late = =

[yazpanda]

I just... I really don't know how to feel.

An explanation would be appreciated because right now so many people feel like they've been kicked in the teeth and it's unfair we haven't even been told why this situation has got this bad. And how could whoever made these decisions not see that things are going to go so terribly wrong on the 19th?

[Zuhra]

.... well that confirms it. SE hates ps3 and ps4 users.
Better yet, how are you going to make psn users wait so long and then not even give us AT LEAST a discount? The psn will be bottlenecked and if we're LUCKY we'll get onto hw by the 23rd. And even then you'll have more issues then the launch of 2.0.
So in short quite the D!ck move there guys. No one on psn is pleased with this news at all.
