Proof that Pre-orders for Betas are crap! (Destiny)
I go completely digital which of course does not require delivery time.
You have to download it… that counts as delivery time does it not? I can still run to my favorite game store, buy a disc, and be back way before a 50GB game is done downloading.
Claude's responses are spot on.
Completed Xbox game downloads are immediately available for play. I understand PS4 disc loading are subject to a certain wait time, are they not?
I see your point but it simply isn't relevant to my point. Pre-orders I've experienced delivered nothing truly substantive for my future gaming activity. In this case, if I hadn't pre-ordered, I'd still have had plenty of time with the now extended Beta. I'm already burned out on it and don't want to further spoil the fun of full release.
Marketing always pushes the pre-order betas long before even mentioning the usually well hidden public access.
